Ghana’s boxing hub, the Bukom Boxing Arena on Saturday, witnessed a great night of boxing as ten boxers drawn from some of the highly rated boxing gyms in the country fought opponents in their respective divisions to climax Azumah Nelson’s 60th birthday celebrations.

It was a night that brought former sports Ministers, Nii Lante Vanderpuiye and Nii Amarkai Amarteifio, British High Commissioner Ian Walker, Ghana Boxing Authority President Peter Zwennes and a host of distinguished personalities under one roof to celebrate Africa’s first and only boxing hall famer.

The special edition of the Azumah Nelson Fight Night which was for their first time promoted by the boxing legend saw 5 bouts lined up with the National Superfeatherweight Championship contest between Abraham Osei Bonsu and Patrick Ayi being the headline bout.

Out of the five terrific fights which were witnessed on the night, three were decided by knockout with only two bouts being decided by the judges’ scorecard.

Nigeria’s Wahab Olwasuen claimed the victory of the night with a sixth-round knockout of Togo’s Moubi Sarouna in their super featherweight battle.

Stephen Abbey added one more win to his impressive record of 18 victories after handing a technical knockout to Emmanuel Danso in the National Super Featherweight contest.
