Guyana’s amateur boxers collide tonight in Developmental Competition

One of Guyana’s premier pugilists, Desmond Amsterdam, stepped on the scale at the weigh-in ceremony

The cream of the crop in Guyana’s amateur boxing arena will exchange blows at 18:00hrs tonight when the bell rings for the Guyana Boxing Association’s (GBA) Senior Developmental Tournament at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue.

The card, designed by the GBA in place of the Terrence Ali National Open, which has been suspended this year due to unknown circumstances, will give Guyana’s Olympic hopefuls a chance to get much-needed in-ring action ahead of a number of qualifiers for the Paris Games.
