UK-based boxers are showing strong interest in fighting on Ghanaian soil following the growing success of recent boxing nights organized in the country. Seth Gyimah, popularly known in boxing circles as Freezy Macbones, has revealed that his phone has been flooded with messages from fellow boxers in the United Kingdom, all eager to be featured on upcoming fight cards in Ghana.
According to Gyimah, the excitement surrounding Ghana’s boxing revival has travelled far beyond West Africa. Fighters from the UK believe Ghana now offers a vibrant atmosphere, passionate fans, and competitive matchups that can elevate their careers.
“I got lots of texts from my colleague boxers in the UK saying they want me to put them on after one of my boxing nights in Ghana,” Gyimah stated. “All these boxers now want to fight in Ghana.”
Ghana, once regarded as a sleeping giant in global boxing, is steadily reclaiming its reputation as a powerhouse for talent development and electrifying fight nights. Recent events have drawn attention for their organization, crowd energy, and the opportunity they provide for fighters to gain international exposure.
Industry observers say this sudden interest from UK fighters signals a major shift. Instead of African boxers travelling abroad for opportunities, Ghana is increasingly becoming a destination for international athletes seeking competitive bouts and career momentum.
Gyimah, who has played a key role in bridging boxing communities between Ghana and the UK, believes this is only the beginning. He hinted that future boxing nights could feature mixed cards, showcasing both local Ghanaian talent and international fighters, particularly from Europe.
This development is expected to boost Ghana’s sports tourism, create new opportunities for local boxers, and further position the country as a respected venue on the global boxing calendar. Fans are already anticipating blockbuster nights that blend international rivalry with Ghanaian pride.
With demand rising and interest growing rapidly, Ghana’s boxing scene appears set for a historic chapter—one where the world comes to fight in Accra, not the other way around.
