The fifth edition of the Boxing Ghana Awards will take place on December 26 at the Idrowhyt Events Centre in Dansoman, with five distinguished personalities set to receive special honours for their contributions to the sport.

The organisers have named 30 categories for this year's ceremony, which will recognise excellence and outstanding achievements across Ghana's amateur and professional boxing communities.

Five personalities have been selected for special recognition. They are former Ghanaian boxing champion Ike Bazooka Quartey, Nana Yaw Konadu, HE Amarkai Amarteifio, the late coach Amon Kotey of Billy Kotey Gym, and Joe Aggrey, a former Graphic Sports editor and deputy sports minister.

According to the organisers, the honourees have made significant contributions to the development and promotion of boxing in Ghana and internationally over the years.

Some of the competitive categories include Best Professional Boxer, Best Amateur Boxer, Best Boxing Media Personality and Best Coach, among others.

The organisers say the fifth edition promises to be a grand occasion and have called on corporate Ghana to support the initiative by helping recognise and reward excellence in the sport.

The Ghana Boxing Awards is an annual public-driven event that celebrates achievement, character and contributions within the country's amateur and professional boxing fraternity.

The awards are featured on boxing platforms and receive backing from the Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) and the Ghana Boxing Federation (GBF).
