WITH PRIDE RICHARD COMMEY CAME BEFORE HIS FATHER, KING TACKIE TEIKO TSURU II
It was a delight to see. Wow.!! How I wish you were there but you almost missed it.
On Sunday 28th July, 2019, a proud son of the soil, the IBF Lightweight World Champ, Richard Commey the Royal Champion humbly came before his fathers at the Ga Mantse Stool House in Abola, Usher Fort, Accra.
He proudly displayed his SUCCESSFULLY defended title to the father of the Ga State King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II.
In the presence of the Elders of the Ga Paramount Stool Dzase, Richard’s Manager Mr. Mike Amoo Bediako, who flew all the way down from the UK to launch the Streetwise Foundation which is set up to promote young boxers in the industry, humbly requested the King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II to accept a token gift from Richard.
The GLOVES OF GLORY which was beautifully packaged in glass with Richard’s signature on it was handed over to the King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II. These Gloves were the very ones Richard Commey used in his 1st world title shot against Robert Easter Jr. but controversially lost on a debatable split decision.
All present witnessed the Crowning and Decoration of Richard Commey by the King when the circular Hyssop Ring was placed over his head.
Richard Commey has humbly requested of the Ga State to support him in his next fight which takes place before the year ends.
Mr Mike A. Bediako in a brief to all present promised to do all his best to encourage and help discover new World Champions from Ga.
