Jun 21, 2013 Sports

A night of fistic fury is envisaged when 8 amateur boxers step into the ring to battle it out in four bouts when the 28th Edition of Guyana Fight Night gets underway at the Uitvlugt Community Centre, Saturday June 29 next.
When the action gets underway at 20:00hrs, Jamie Kellman of the Young Achievers Boxing Gym (YABG) will square off with Quancy Wright of the Essequibo Boxing Gym (EBG) in the 50-54lbs class followed by Squalie Wright (EBG) up against Shemar Bumbury of the Forgotten Youth Foundation (FYF) in the 75-79lbs division. Wright’s gym mate, Shaka Moore, will take on Stephon Green of the Harpy Eagles (HE) in the 105-109lbs category and Quincy Boyce (GDF) will bring the amateur segment to a climax when he faces Travis Hubbard (HE) in the 118-125lbs division.
These bouts will precede the professional segment where Trinidad and Tobago based pugilist Dexter Gonsalves will square off with Barbados based Guyanese, Revlon Lake, in a 12 rounds scrap for the local jnr/lightweight title.
Berbician, Kelsey George will come up against veteran, Troy Lewis, in a 4 rounds middleweight encounter while welterweight pugilist, Lared Stewart, will make his professional debut against Anson Green, also over 4 rounds. Eversley Browne and debutant, Romeo Norville, will also go after each other in a 4 rounds middleweight, scrap.
Meanwhile, both categories of boxers are training diligently at their respective gyms to attain optimum fitness. Fans are also assured of uninterrupted entertainment even if it should rain; administrators have said that they are prepared for such eventualities and the ring would be set up under a large tent with similar facilities for patrons. An admission fee of $1,500 will be charged for any part of the ground. Musical entertainment will be provided by Slingerz Sound System.
