Seth Gyimah, also known as “Freezy Macbones,” a Ghanaian heavyweight boxer, says his ultimate goal is to meet famous fighter Azumah Nelson.
The fighter from the United Kingdom arrived in Ghana on Sunday, August 27, in response to the Ghana Boxing Federation’s invitation to compete in the 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers in Senegal.
Seth Gyimah will join Ghana’s Boxing squad, the Black Bombers, in Accra for the next Olympic Boxing Qualifiers in Dakar, Senegal, which will take place from September 9 to September 15, 2023.
In an exclusive interview with Citi Sports upon his arrival at Kotoko International Airport, the 33-year-old boxer expressed his desire to meet former Ghanaian fighter Azumah Nelson in order to pick up valuable lessons on his way to huge success in the next boxing qualifications.
“It will be a privilege to meet Azumah Nelson, to learn more skills and pick up more wisdom from him, to stay humble and get to learn more from him.”
“As a result, I’m looking forward to meeting him.”
Since making his professional debut against Christopher Wood in February 2003, Seth Gyimah has won two out of two fights.
The 33-year-old boxer won his second professional fight in April as the undercard of Joe Joyce vs. Chinese fighter Zhilei Zhang at the Cooper Box Arena in London, totally overwhelming veteran Darryl Sharp.
The Black Bombers have begun non-residential camping ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympic Qualifiers in Senegal in recent weeks.
In the following days, Freezy Macbones will join the present team for training.
When asked what he hopes to do with the Black Bombers, the 33-year-old stated that he hopes to win more medals for Ghana.
I believe dreams do come true, there’s nothing better than coming back home to give a little bit of knowledge to support your country.
We are looking forward to bring the victory, a lot of gold medals to Ghana
We are making our way to Senegal and it is going to be entertaining, it is going to be fun
At the end of the day, Ghana is going to bring a lot of the medals back home.
