T&T amateur boxers arrive today to keep rig date with locals
The four local amateur fighters set to take on their Trinidad and Tobago counterparts on the amateur segment of the Fight night ProAm boxing card set for Friday are primed and ready for action. The T&T boxers are due in today and four exciting bouts are anticipated when the leading young pugilists from Guyana battle their counterparts from ‘Humming bird’ country as both teams look to improve the abilities of their amateur boxers.
Stefan Gouveia
Two of Guyana’s leading prospects for the future, Stefan Gouveia and Imran Khan, will be in action and fans will be in for a treat.
The amateur segment of the card will see Middleweight Dennis Thomas (GUY) vs Declan Calliste (T&T), Lightweight Stefan Gouveia (GUY) vs Michael Alexander (T&T), Eon Bancroft (GUY) vs Leon Nottingham (T&T) and Imran Khan (GUY) vs David Gonzales (T&T).
The local team has been encamped at the Andrew Lewis GYM where they are involved in final preparation for tomorrow’s action.
This programme is part of bilateral relations between the Guyana Amateur Boxing Association and the Trinidad association and is also one segment of GABA’s development programme where they will be kept active as the association implements their plan to have a well prepared team of boxers compete in the Brazil Olympic Games in 2016.
GABA is also in the process of working out the logistics with their Jamaican counterparts to have four of their fighters visit these shores in December.
