Zulu king challenges professor to stick fight

BBC:

The king of South Africa’s large Zulu community has challenged a professor and cultural expert to a stick fight, saying he had been insulted, along with the entire Zulu nation.

King Misuzulu kaZwelithini issued the challenge to Prof Musa Xulu in front of thousands of people who had gathered at his newly built royal palace for the annual Reed Dance.

“We are angry and we will do anything to protect and preserve our cultures,” he said, according to the Timeslive news site.

Prof Xulu told the BBC he took the king’s personal challenge as a joke, however he said he was worried for his safety in case he was attacked by other Zulus. more

  1. Awww, com’on, Prof! Do it. It may be painful, and you may suffer some loss of dignity by losing, but it’s better than suffering total loss of face by declining.

    And remember, Prof, next time you open your alligator mouth, don’t let it overwhelm your hummingbird ass.

  2. The professor might be in trouble after all. Watch in the video, the Zulu warrior was being very gentle. He was “tapping” targeted joints and head shots that if hit hard enough with that club/stick could cause serious injuries during battle. Stone age weapons can be get the job done. See slingshot.
