# Essop Moosa

Essop Moosa (born 1952/1953), nicknamed Smiley and also known as Arthur Williams, is a South African former soccer player and racing commentator.

## Early and personal life

Moosa's paternal grandfather was from Surat in Gujarat, British India. Under South Africa's apartheid race laws, Moosa was classified as "Indian", although his father was classified as "White" and his mother as "Coloured". His younger brother Zane was also a footballer. Moosey was nicknamed "Smiley".

## Playing career

Moosa played for Sundowns at the age of 16. In November 1972 he appeared in a Cup competition between two teams from the whites-only National Football League, representing Berea Park, playing under the pseudonym Arthur Williams. After the opposing team Rangers became suspicious, and journalists investigated and revealed his real identity, he was visited by the Special Branch and told not to "try it again". By doing so he became the first non-white player to play for an all-white team in South Africa.
Moosa later said that the incident and others under apartheid sent him to a psychiatric hospital for a time.
In the mid-1970s Moosa had a trial in England with Crystal Palace, and was offered a contract by West Ham United, but failed to gain a work permit for the transfer.
Moosa was voted the SA Football Federation's Player of the Year, for three consecutive years – 1972, 1973, and 1974.
In addition to Sundowns and Berea Park, Moosa also played for Swaraj, Bluebells, Durban Aces, Adriatica, Benoni United, and Pretoria Callies.

## Commentating career

Moosa later worked as a racing commentator, coming out of retirement in June 2018 following a 15-year absence.

He died on 21 June 1980, at age 36 in a motor vehicle accident at Cecil Payne Park in Roodepoort South Africa. He was the first white boxer in Apartheid South Africa to fight against a non-white opponent, American Bob Foster on 21 August 1973 in South Africa.

## Career

Trained by Allan Toweel, Pierre joined the professional boxing ranks on 2 May 1966. He won his very first fight with a knockout in the first round. The partnership between Fourie and Toweel, one of the most successful in the history of South African boxing, continued throughout the eleven years of Fourie's career as a boxer. In his 60 professional fights, Fourie distinguished himself as a hard but clean and scientific boxer rather than a rough fighter.
He beat Johnny Wood twice and Willie Ludick to retain his South African middleweight title and was undefeated. He moved into the light heavyweight division. He fought Sarel Aucamp twice to retain his South African light heavyweight title and was undefeated. He fought Bob Foster for the WBC light heavyweight title and WBA World light heavyweight title twice and Victor Galíndez for the WBA World light heavyweight title twice. He lost these on points.

The second fight between Fourie and Foster on 1 December 1973 was the first between a white and black boxer in South Africa and constituted a breakthrough for the removal of racial discrimination in professional boxing and other sports. At the time the attendance figure of 37,4704 spectators, the gate money of approximately R500,000, and the guaranteed purse of $200,000 to Foster, were world records for the light heavyweight division.
In his last fight in March 1977, he fought Gerrie Coetzee for the South African heavyweight title and lost.
