From Fan to Promoter: Osibor Boxing Sets Sights on Global Stage

Gordon Frimpong, the manager of the newly crowned National Featherweight Boxing Champion, Stanley Nyantekyi, known as the ‘Ashanti Warrior,’ has outlined ambitious plans for their boxing journey. He expressed gratitude to Nyantekyi and all supporters for making the recent event at SG Mall, backed by the Asantehene in Kumasi, a memorable success.

As CEO of Osibor Promotions and Management Syndicate, Frimpong hinted at their aspirations to conquer Africa, the Commonwealth, and eventually the world. While acknowledging the growing acclaim for Nyantekyi, Frimpong emphasized a measured approach towards their ultimate goal of securing a world title, characterizing Nyantekyi as a rising star in Ghanaian boxing.

Frimpong, a seasoned businessman with over 15 years of involvement in boxing, transitioned from being a founding member of the Ghana Boxing Supporters Union (GHABSU) to establishing Osibor Promotions. Reflecting on his journey, he stressed the importance of support in expanding and enhancing Osibor Boxing, underscoring the passion that propels his efforts to reach the national stage.

In a plea to corporate entities and organizations, Frimpong highlighted the challenges in maintaining championship status and urged support for Osibor Boxing, recognizing the pivotal role of sponsorship in realizing their ambitions. He extended appreciation to various stakeholders in the boxing community, including coaches, gym mates, and the leadership of the Bronx Boxing Gym.

Frimpong also commended the President of the Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA), Mr. Abraham Neequaye, and the board for their commitment to fostering quality boxing across regions.

While Osibor Promotions has received some assistance from coaches and matchmakers, Frimpong emphasized the need for substantial sponsorship from corporate Ghana to propel their quest for another world champion, not only for the nation but for the continent as well.
