Pocket Rocket Gym of New Amsterdam will host a Pre-Mash night of boxing on March 2 to usher in the New Amsterdam Mashramani Celebrations against two Georgetown-based Gyms at the Big Head Pool on Angoy’s Avenue.
The card is set to start at 7pm with the organisers Orlan ‘Pocket Rocket’ Rogers and Mark Thom promising a riveting night of boxing. They told Kaieteur Sport yesterday that they are putting all the necessary things in place for the card to succeed.
“Right now we are putting in the mechanisms to return competitive boxing to New Amsterdam on this night. We are confirming with our sponsors and we hope that they will help us enhance this event,” Rogers indicated.
The duo said that they plan to host a card every month to keep boxers from the community active as they prepare for a robust scheduled ahead of the 2016 Olympic Games. They believe that with the right support they can accomplish their goal.
