Tumelo Ramaphosa, who said working makes him focus on the positive.

HE is known as the son of President Cyril Ramaphosa, but he isn’t just that.

Businessman Tumelo Ramaphosa runs an online butchery and is into cryptocurrency exchange.

The 31-year-old is the CEO and founder of the high-end butchery, Studex Meat, a company that sells premium locally farmed Wagyu in South Africa.

He said at times he even forgets that he's Ramaphosa's son.

“I don’t know the pressures of living to the president son’s name because I'm so busy with what I'm doing. I don’t focus on the stuff until I'm reminded by people who I am, and what’s going on,” Tumelo said.

He said working also makes him focus on the positive.

“I do that to kind of stay focused on what’s real, instead of what’s not. Thinking about being in the position I am in all day is not going to help me but being in that position makes things happen."

Tumelo recently announced a celebrity boxing match that he'll be hosting this month and said it stems from his love for martial arts.

“I got into celebrity boxing, which is a passion of mine in terms of combat sport. We've found a way to commercialise it in line with our businesses. It's exciting and that’s what I keep myself busy with,” he said.

He has also included women to fight on the boxing match.

“When you look at all sports, we don’t really see much female inclusion celebrated. That's what we're trying to do. For the ladies, this is long overdue. Women want a chance to defend themselves. They want a chance to be seen,” he said.
