Boxing Daily Report from the Coetzee Promotions promoted show at Kumasi Sowah, Kumasi,  taking place on 25/04/2038:

Next up is the main event of the show.  This is a semi final eliminator for the Ghana-Ashanti Super Bantamweight title.  

Looking to impress the boxing fans in attendance, the two fighters competing in this 10 round matchup are Corey Ankrah (9 - 13 - 4) who hails from Kumasi, Ghana and Nicholas Burja(11 - 8(1) - 5) from Kumasi, Ghana.  Ankrah weighed in at 122 pounds, while Burja weighed in at 122 pounds and 15 ounces.    As Burja came in over the weight limit, only his opponent will be able to compete for the final eliminator position tonight.  
The referee tonight is Rob Adjei, and the three ringside judges are Otieno Adomah, Saad Sinai and Deion Agyemang.
