Ghanaian Heavyweight boxer, Seth Gyimah, better known as “Freezy Macbones” says his ultimate dream is to meet legendary boxer, Azumah Nelson.
The UK-based fighter arrived in Ghana on Sunday, August 27, responding to the call of the Ghana Boxing Federation to represent Ghana at the 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers in Senegal.
Seth Gyimah will join Ghana’s Boxing team, the Black Bombers, in Accra for the upcoming Olympic Boxing Qualifiers in Dakar, Senegal, slated from Saturday, September 9 to Saturday, September 15, 2023.
In an exclusive interview with Citi Sports, upon his arrival at the Kotoko International Airport, the 33-year-old boxer mentioned his dream is to meet retired Ghanaian boxer Azumah Nelson in his quest to pick up vital lessons en route to chalking major success at the upcoming boxing qualifiers.
“It will be a privilege to meet Azumah Nelson, to learn more skills and pick up more wisdom from him, stay humble and get to learn more from him.”
“So I am looking forward to meeting him”
Seth Gyimah has a record of two wins out of two since making his professional debut against Christopher Wood in February 2003.
The 33-year-old boxer was involved in just his second professional fight in April as the undercard of the bout between Joe Joyce and Chinese Boxer Zhilei Zhang, completely dominating veteran Darryl Sharp at the Cooper Box Arena in London.
The Black Bombers have begun non-residential camping ahead of the qualifiers in the past few weeks for the 2024 Paris Olympic Qualifiers in Senegal.
Freezy Macbones will join the current squad for training in the coming days.
The 33-year-old was quizzed on what he seeks to achieve with the Black Bombers, and he affirmed his belief in clinching 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.
