Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) Ag PRO Calls For More Promoters
Mr. Sammy Heywood Okine, Communications Director of the Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) has welcomed ACE Power Promotions and called for more promoters to make the sport interesting and serious.
Speaking at the launch, the experienced sports journalist said boxing is the number one sport in Ghana because they have produced 10 world champions and many Commonwealth and Africa Champions.
He added that Ghana won the first medal for Africa in boxing at the Olympic Games in 1960.
He noted that boxing has brought Ghana many glories so the game should be organized well and in the modern business way.
He added his voice for the rebranding of Ghana boxing and called for more promoters so that there would be frequent bouts all over the country.
“We have the talents, but lack the promoters and trainers, we need to encourage businesses to venture into boxing, and train more coaches” he said.
Ace Power and Box Office will stage a contest without fans at the Ga Mashie Hall of the Trust Sports Emporium on November 29, 2020.
