The Championship Amateur Boxing Club (CABC) is set to host the "Moving Forward" Amateur Boxing Show on Saturday, September 27, at the Wulff Road Boxing Square.
The club has been active lately and the "Moving Forward"boxing show will be the ninth event hosted by the club this year.
"We want to continue to develop talented boxers in the country. We believe in experience, and if a boxer has enough experience to know the ring, he has a chance to be successful. We have seen that over the past years with some of the veteran fighters that we have in the country, and so the Champion Boxing Club is proud that it has a program that is so committed," said Head Coach of CABC Ray Minus Jr.
"We want to thank the Ministry of Sports and all of our other sponsors for being there for us, and helping us host these events to build these young boxers up. The fighters are excited for this event for the chance to perform and show what they have learned in their training sessions."
Minus said he is proud of all of his fighters, but come Saturday, he will be particularly interested in the performances of Don Rolle and Lennox Boyce. Rolle is currently 15 years old and Boyce is 14.
"We are looking at these two boxers to soon represent the country in the 2020 Olympics. These guys are certainly on track and I believe that they will have an opportunity to be seen by the Bahamas Boxing Federation. I feel that they will stand out at every event and the thing is they still have so much time to grow and get better," said Minus.
"We want to encourage all of the clubs to come out and allow their boxers to have the opportunity to get some experience because the more of it you have, the better your chances will be when that big fight comes your way. We will continue to try and produce the best fighters that we can and we feel that we're doing a good job of that so far."
Following the "Moving Forward"showcase, CABC will host the 21st L. Garth Wright Sr. Golden Gloves Amateur Boxing Tournament on Saturday, October 11 at the Wulff Road Boxing Square.
