Boxing fans sit in rain to watch as Baubali bows to the beast, Dickson

Ghanaian boxing fans sat in the drizzling in the early hours of Saturday to watch Jacob 'The Beast' Dickson, a former National Cruiserweight Champion destroy big mouth Ernest Akushey aka Baubali in an interesting boxing match dubbed Monaco, the night to prove at the Bukom Boxing Arena.

After the massive hype at densely populated places like Gbese, Bukom and Chorkor, the bout live up to its billing with both boxers dishing out a good performance and the fans cheered their idols .

Bronx Boxing Club presented most of the boxers featured by SEM Promotions with Hafiz Damba,  Abubakar Kamoko aka Ambitious Tilapia, Solomon Sampson. John 'Expensive' Laryea and Daniel Gorsh (The Emperor) registering sweet knock out victories.

Prisons officer Musah Lawson had to sweat before winning against Patrick Cudjoe of the Wisdom Boxing Gym for the National Super Welterweight title.

Kevin Abraham Carter of Fit Trip Gym also showed some skills and power to win by knockout.

Joseph Sackey also won to make his church members and family happy.

The13 bouts bill plus amateur and juvenile fights laced with entertainment was marvellous as Awel One Rasta, Tinku and the Sexy Ladies raised temperatures at the Arena.

Promoter Lord Eddie Coleman had great ideas to entertain boxing lovers however he needs to improve upon his act so that we can rate him in the ranks of Legacy Rise Sports. Bishop Promotions and Box Office.

The fight was well attended, but corporate Ghana must come in to support and sponsor because the people love the game, but

Sports Education and Management (SEM) Promotions cannot do it alone. They need assistance to organise better programmes.

They have to work on time management and strategic planning.

In general they tried and fans will look out for their next bill.

The Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) deserve some commendation for ensuring strict adhering to protocols and effective but friendly security by the Military Police.
