Republican to take aim with `AK 47’ at `Biggy’ Small

UNITED States of America-based former world champion Wayne ‘Big Truck’ Brathwaite’s younger brother Quincy `Biggy’ Small’s tour of Guyana would not be a walk in the park, as the Republican Boxing Gym is rolling out two “competent” super heavyweights to serve as bumps on the road. 

National coach Wincell `Nacker’ Thomas yesterday confirmed that `Bad’ John Campayne and Jason `AK 47’ Barker are in line to tackle the six-foot four-inch tall, 255-pound Small when the Guyana Amateur Boxing Association stages its National Open this weekend.
Thomas assured that his charges are capable of springing surprises. “Campayne is a young fighter with much ability. This is a chance for him to prove himself,” the national coach said. “The 26-year-old Barker, like his nickname suggest, can be a lethal weapon.”
At the last National Open he forced the referee to save Kenroy Evelyn of the Guyana Defence Force, whom he bloodied.
“Barker has been waiting on the opportunity to prove that he is the best super heavyweight in Guyana. He now has that opportunity as he is a determined, enthusiastic and strong fighter and I expect him to do well.”
Small arrived from the USA last Sunday and was scheduled to conduct sessions at the Andrew `Six Head’ Lewis Gym in Albouystown with Cuban coach Francisco Roldan in his corner.
The National Open will punch off under floodlights this Friday at the East Ruimveldt Community Centre ground (California Square) and will run for three days, concluding on Sunday.
