The Super Welterweight fight between Ghanaian boxers Henry Malm and Derrick Quaye took an unimaginable turn after Malm threw Quaye out of the ring in the middle of the bout on Thursday, March 6, 2025, at the Bukom Arena.
The shocking and unprecedented incident occurred in round five when Quaye’s aggressive approach pushed Malm into the corner, forcing him into a defensive stance.
With momentum on his side, Quaye landed a series of punches while Malm opted for a clinch.
As Quaye attempted to break free, he inadvertently pressed Malm, causing him to fall to his knees. As the referee approached to separate the fighters, Malm suddenly got to his feet, lifted Quaye, and threw him out of the ring.
Malm was penalized with a two-point deduction, but just as the fight was about to resume, fans began throwing objects into the ring, leading to an abrupt halt. The bout was subsequently abandoned and is set to be rescheduled.
The fight was part of the Shishii Fight Night event, held in celebration of Ghana’s Independence Day.
