Theophilus Allotey Brings Hope To Black Bombers In Bangkok After Amadu And Ahondjo Missed The Boat To Paris 2024
Ghana Black Bomber’s Flyweight boxer, Theophilus Kpakpo Allotey won on a unanimous point decision against his Hungarian opponent Bernath Attila in the 51kg (R64) contest of the Road to Paris, the Ring is the Road at the second World Qualifying Tournament(WQT) at the Indoor Arena, Huamark in Bangkok, Thailand.
Earlier Mark Kojovi Ahondjo lost unanimous to his opponent Joseph Kennedy St Pierre from Mauritius in the men’s Super Heavyweight -92+kg at the ongoing final Olympic Qualifiers for a slot in the Paris 2024 boxing event.
The 23-year-old Leicester-born, UK-based Ghanaian showed promise but lacked the willpower for the Road to Paris, the Ring is the Road.
African Games Gold medalist, Amadu Mohammed’s Paris 2024 Olympic Games dreams fell through following a stoppage loss to Jose Luis De Lo Santo Feliz of the Dominican Republic in the men’s round of 64 featherweight (57 kg) bout at the ongoing boxing Road to Paris final world qualifying tournament in Bangkok, Thailand.
With three boxers seeing their fate, the remaining four must in deed raise the flag of Ghana high.
Leader of the team, Mr. Dauda Fuseni believes they will excel.
