John Zile aka The Monster stopped veteran Raymond Commey aka Chorkor Banku in round 8 by TKO to become the new LBO Africa Super Bantamweight Champion on Saturday at the Deep Sea Pub, James Town.
The bout was well attended attesting to the fact that the people of James Town love boxing.
Osibor Boxing Promotions with the support of Bronx Promotions once again produced a champion for the nation.
Meanwhile, Mr. John Manfo, a member of the Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) Board says the new boxing champions must not rest with these small belts, but train harder to grab the popular belts like WBO, WBA, IBF, WBO or even the Commonwealth title which is a very prestige title.
He commended Sheriff Quaye also from the Bronx Boxing Gym who has been promoted to the eighth position of the WBO world ranking and may earn a world title shot any time.
