If you are a fan of amateur boxing, then the place to be tonight is the National Gymnasium to witness the staging of the Patrick Forde Memorial Open.

There, 28 pugilists from Trinidad, Suriname, St Lucia along with Guyana’s finest will match gloves for trophies, medals and Regional bragging rights.

St Lucia’s Nathan Ferrari and Colin ‘Superman’ Lewis will headline the knockout night of boxing and if the verbal jabs thrown yesterday at the final press briefing at Tower Suites is an indication of things to come, then fireworks are definitely on the cards.
