Steve Ninvalle

The quality of competition coupled with exemplary discipline and a large, boisterous crowd enabled the just concluded Caribbean Boxing Championships to be a huge success for the Region on many fronts.

And if President of the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA), Steve Ninvalle’s Christmas wish comes through, the annual fixture which was birthed in the 592 four years ago will evolve into a qualifier for the Pan American Games.

The four-night event dubbed the ‘Boxing Olympics of the Caribbean’ was staged for the second time at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, attracting in excess of 70 boxers from nine territories.
