Imran Khan
Association (GABA) to stage an amateur boxing card at Linden, which will be part of their Town Week activities on April 30.
The open air event will be staged at the Car Park in the Mining Town and will feature 12 fights involving the cream of the country’s amateur boxers including several from Linden. The boxers hunting Olympic glory will also feature, led by Imran ‘Magic’ Khan.
This card will be welcomed by the fans at Linden as the top amateur fighters display their skills. The Linden representatives will get the backing from the home crowd, but eyes will be on the Olympic hopefuls.
Four boxers and two officials will make the journey a few days (May 2) later for the Olympic box off set for Rio de Janerio, Brazil. Khan is a certain pick for the box off after one of the conditions made with AIBA, the international governing body for his training stint in Cardiff, Wales, was that he is one of the fighters selected for the box off. Keen competition is anticipated.
