The Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) will stage the 2023 Lennox Blackmore National Intermediate Championships from Friday to Sunday at the National Gymnasium, Mandela Avenue.
Participation is expected from notable gyms such as the Guyana Defence Force, the Guyana Police Force, the Forgotten Youth Foundation, Pace and Power, Rose Hall, Vergenoegen and Republican for the championships which commence daily at 18:00 hrs. The medical assessment and weigh-in will take place tomorrow at the National Gymnasium from 16:00 hrs.
Terrence Poole, Technical Director of the GBA, said, “The Intermediate Championship is the stage directly after the Novices. It’s a more advanced boxing level because there will be boxers who have represented Guyana competing at this level, so there’s a higher quality of competition. This is the stage where you will see the true potential of the fighters. I anticipate a quality exhibition of the talent due to the fact that the competing pugilists are much more experienced.”
