Amateur boxers showcase skills at Timerhi Red Ground today
Some of the country’s top amateur boxers would showcase their wares when executives of the Timerhi Warriors Boxing Gym (TWBG) in collaboration with the Guyana Amateur Boxing Association (GABA) stages a 12 bout boxing card in commemoration of the Easter celebrations at the Timerhi Red Ground, today.
Boxers from several city gyms will be matched against those from the TWBG gym to provide entertainment for the boxing starved residents of Timerhi.

Coach of the TWBG, Owen Holligan said that the boxing card is the first of a set of collaborative activities with GABA to provide competition for the boxers in his community.
