`The Professor’ Nelson in Accra, Ghana

THE Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) president, Steve Ninvalle, yesterday met with Azumah Nelson, one of the greatest featherweight and super featherweight boxers of all time.

Ninvalle met with the former world champion in Accra, Ghana. The two had a one-hour meeting at Nelson’s residence where the Ghanian’s possible assistance to Guyana’s boxing was discussed inter alia.

Nelson is considered to be the greatest boxer to have come out of Africa and was a feared opponent during the 80s and 90s.
