The Guyana Amateur Boxing Association (GABA) could be dethroned without throwing a punch if the association is unable to send a full complement of boxers to the upcoming Caribbean Amateur Boxing championships in Trinidad and Tobago.
So said GABA president Steve Ninvalle who, in a press release yesterday, said that his association was having mixed feeling about participating in the December 4-9 championships following the decision by the government to give the association only half-a-million of the three million dollars needed.
“The Guyana Amateur Boxing Association is now ambivalent about participating in the Caribbean Championships after government came short on support for the team of 20,” a release from the association stated.
