After losing a light heavyweight division contest to Senegal’s Seydou Konate, Ghanaian boxer Seth “Freezy MacBones” Gyimah is confident he will bounce back from the loss.
Gyimah lost the contest in his debut fight for Ghana; he suffered the loss at the ongoing qualifiers to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The likable Gyimah whose intense but funny workout videos on social media have generated a cult following, missed out on a win for Ghana’s Amateur boxing team, the Black Bombers.
Since the loss, Freezy has expressed his disappointed but is adamant there are more positives to come in the future via a statement on his official X (formerly Twitter) page.
“I am very devastated by today (‘s) defeat but nevertheless I always take (a) positive thing from a negative situation. I will bounce back, I will be back stronger. It is not over yet. I would like to sincerely thank Ghanaians for their support and my teammates as well. Love you all.”
