Guyanese boxers to fight in Trinidad this weekend

Aug 29, 2012 Sports

After a prolonged hiatus from the ring, Stephney ‘Stepping Razor’ George is expected to make a grand return when she opposes Trinidadian, Ria Ramnarine in the latter boxer’s hometown in a 6 rounds flyweight contest on Saturday September 1.
Lindener, Cassius Matthews is also expected to travel with George but up to press time we were unable to acquire the name of his opponent.
Kaieteur Sports was also reliably informed that a 4 man team of amateur boxers will be making the trip to engage their Trinidadian counterparts. However, organizer of tournaments, Terrence Poole said that while he has been informed that the boxers will be travelling, he is yet to be informed of their names. The team will leave on Friday.
George said that she has been engaged in light training and when she was informed of the bout she simply intensified activities and is confident of winning the bout.
This is the third time that the two will face off with each fighter holding one victory apiece. George said that she had travelled to the Twin the Island Republic on both occasions and had defeated Ramnarine on the first outing. She said that she had taken the second fight at short notice and subsequently suffered the consequences.
Yesterday afternoon, George was honing her skills at the Andrew ‘Sixheads’ Lewis boxing Gym under the tutelage of Lennox ‘Cappell’ Daniels. She said that she feels fit and ready for the encounter and is confident of winning.
George boasts a 12-6 record and has fought in several countries including Canada, Mexico, St Maarten and the USA. She feels that her vast experience will stand her in good stead.
