A high level of discipline and commitment is expected of the four boxers during their three-month training stint in Cuba ahead of the Olympic Qualifiers in March.

This is according to key corner man, President of the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) K. Juman-Yassin who briefly spoke to the quartet prior to departure yesterday at the National Gymnasium.

Yassin stated that he wished them “all the best” in Cuba and then committed $1M to the team for the Qualifiers which will be staged in Argentina from March 26 to April 3.
