Be Discipline Discipline If You Want To Be A Successful Boxer - GBA Boss To Ghanaian Boxers

President of the Ghana Boxing Authority, Peter Zwennes told young boxers to be discipline if you they want to reach the peak of their career.

The boxing field has many promising talents to make it at the highest level, but Peter Zwennes says talent is not enough to be a successful boxer.

Ghana has not had a world champion since Joseph Agbeko won the IBF Bantamweight champion in against Perez Yonnhy.

Peter Zwennes is unhappy with the development considering the talents available and has sent them an advice.

“I keep telling people to be a world champion, it is not just a matter of talent. You need a lot of discipline. I use Azumah Nelson as an example,” Peter Zwennes told Joy FM.

“He was not just a champion, he kept the title for so many years. You may be good, you may become a champion, but without discipline in no time you will lose that title.”

Richard, Dogboe, Tagoe and Lawson are the notable names are resonates hope and the boxing fraternity believes they will give Ghana a world title.

Joshua Clottey Hints At Ending Career

Former Welterweight champion Joshua Clottey has disclosed his intentions of ending his career as a boxer after the demise of his trainer, Godwin Nii Dzanie popularly known as ‘Alloway’.

‘Alloway’ passed away on Saturday after battling with Typhoid fever for three months at the age of 56.

The respected Ghanaian boxing trainer had previously handled Azumah Nelson and Joseph Agbeko, and according to Joshua Clottey, he drew inspiration from his coach who was in the boxing arena for about four decades.

And Joshua Clottey believes the death of his trainer was spiritual and it has affected him so much that he will in no time announce his retirement from boxing.

“I am very sad for the death of ‘Alloway’, a trainer who feels for his boxer. There were several times he wept when I was about going into the ring, because felt for me and that motivated me a lot,” he told Asempa FM

“I don’t think it was Typhoid fever that killed him, there might be more to it like spiritual something. Typhoid is curable, but his was something that we couldn’t help it.

“He would go the hospital and doctors would discharge him after sometime, but immediately he gets home the disease will recur.

“I even made attempt to secure him a visa to USA to be at my corner for a bout so that I could get him medical treatment overseas, but I realised he couldn’t walk due to the sickness, so I couldn’t proceed.  It is a sad story that someone out of hatred could plot a hero’s downfall for no reason.” he noted.
