Junior lightweight boxer Ali Funeka takes a break during training at the Eyethu Boxing Club in Mdantsane township near East London, South Africa in this picture taken April 25, 2006. The township in the country's impoverished Eastern Cape province has produced more than 10 world champions since South Africa was readmitted into the international sporting fraternity, but in recent years it has seen an unprecedented exodus of fighters to Johannesburg searching for better deals.
