… to face Canada’s Jordan Mathieu today

SENSATIONAL and aggressive Guyanese boxer Keevin Allicock registered a 4-1 points victory to advance to the semi-final of the boxing championships at the 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games currently underway in the Bahamas.

According to the Commonwealth Youth Games website, Allicock registered a 4-1 win against Kian Bittles of England in their 52kg quarter-final contest and will today meet Canada’s Jordan Mathieu in one of two semi-final contests..
The other Guyanese boxer at the Games is Caribbean Development lightweight boxing champion Christopher Moore, who on the opening day defeated Dimitris Christofi of Cyprus in their 60kg contest.
According to reports, team coach Sebert Blake described the victory as a convincing one, as Moore took early control of the fight. He felt that once Moore retains his form he will end up on the podium and the Guyanese (Moore) lived up to expectations.
The following day, he defeated Australia’s Mark Steven Borg to advance to the semi-final where he was down to face England’s Charles Frankham yesterday evening.
