Association on Thursday held a meeting with the sports media at the Ghana Olympic Committee Conference Room to inform them on their current and future plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team that recently returned from the 2026 African Championship in Abidjan, Cote d\u2019Ivoire with two medals, a gold and bronze by Gabby Fenuku and Janet Acquah were introduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"532\"

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President of the Association, Mr. Jeff Taylor who was elected as Vice President of the continental body during the championship commended the Ghanaian fighters and the technical staff who represented the nation with no financial support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He expressed that Ghana has fighters who can do better if they are supported and prayed that MMA would become an Olympic sport in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is an attractive sport, not dangerous and can rake in money for the fighters, we need more fighters to come on board, boxers, judokas, kickboxers and other combat sports practitioners are welcome\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Mr. Taylor, the Ghana team needs a facility at the Accra Sports Stadium to train and logistics to inspire and motivate the fighters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He announced that the World Championship will take place in Turkey in December and prayed that Ghana will be represented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He commended Derrick Macaire the internationally recognized and respected technical instructor and referee from Ghana who is imparting on many countries on the African continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He appealed to the media and corporate Ghana for support as MMA is not a dangerous sport, but rather lucrative and attractive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coaches Samuel Nii Tackie and Torado Bruce said Ghana has good fighters but they need the technical skills and motivation to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By Sammy Heywood Okine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
