Kaieteur News – Director of Sport and Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) President Steve Ninvalle met with Aaron Prince, Trinidadian Olympic middleweight boxer who is training in Guyana prior to departure for the games.
The Trinidad and Tobago Boxing Association (TTBA) reached out to the GBA for assistance in having Prince train here in the lead up to the games. Guyana is hosting Prince for one week as he ups his preparations for the Tokyo Olympics. The 35-year-old middleweight pugilist is accompanied by his Coach and first Vice President of the Trinidad and Tobago Boxing Association (TTBA) Reynold Cox.
Guyana’s Technical Director Terrence Poole was also at the meeting with Ninvalle as the Guyanese pledged every support for their fellow Caribbean compatriot’s endeavours in possibly medaling at the Tokyo Games.
Ninvalle had earlier noted the good relationship between the GBA and the TTBA hence the request for Prince’s sojourn.
This is Prince’s first time qualifying for the Olympics after 4 tries. His journey to the World Games has been stretched out over 13 years and he is only the fourth Trinidadian amateur boxer in history to qualify for the Games.
