Anthony Joshua with Ghanaian boxing promoter, Sharaf Mahama
Sharaf Mahama, the Chief Executive Officer of the boxing promotion agency Legacy Rise Promotions, has been spotted with United Kingdom (UK) boxer of Nigerian descent, Anthony Joshua.
A photo circulating on social media indicates that Sharaf Mahama, who is one of Ghana’s leading boxing promoters, crossed paths with Anthony Joshua during the Martin Bakole and Joseph Parker bout at the Riyadh Season event centre.
The photo has warmed the hearts of boxing lovers, who are confident that the moves being made by Sharaf Mahama will ultimately benefit Ghanaian boxing.
Sharaf was in the news recently when he flew talented Ghanaian boxer Abubakar Kamoko, popularly known as “Ambitious Tilapia,” to the UK for a boxing boot camp.
It is believed that Ambitious Tilapia, who is the son of local boxing hero Bukom Banku, will be training for one month.
Speaking ahead of his trip, Kamoko commended Sharaf Mahama for his interest in his career and determination to see him succeed.
He promised to make the best of the opportunities and ensure that he achieves his dream of winning a world title for Ghana.
“The UK is my dream destination, and I am so grateful to Sharaf Mahama for this opportunity. I’m going to work hard, learn, and come back a better fighter to make Ghana proud,” he said.
