Bris’O’ Promotions’ Bikini Boxxing 2 set for Bartica Regatta

Following a successful Beach Bikini Boxxing tournament that was contested November last at the Splashmins Resort, overseas-based Guyanese promoter Seon Bristol has announced that the second edition was not far away.
Speaking with Bristol recently, who has been promoting both amateur and professional boxing in Guyana and overseas for over 20 years, he disclosed that the “Bikini Boxxing” 2 event would be part of the list of activities for Bartica Regatta

2019, which is slated for April this year.
In a bid to help promote and foster sports entertainment and sports tourism in Guyana, the promoter noted that this initiative was a perfect platform and based on the support received at the last event, a much bigger turnout was expected.
“It’s a fun event that minimises or has no sense of harm to the participants. This is boxing with a twist,” the promoter noted.
This event features the first all-female fight card in Guyana and all participants should be at least 18 years old.
Each contestant will be fitted with balloon-like gloves that are specially made to minimise and prevent injuries.
When quizzed about the quality of the bouts, Bristol explained that the participants would undergo about two months of training that would be facilitated by former Guyana and international boxing champion Shondell Alfred, who will fine-tune the ladies’ skills.
The Bikini Boxxing 2 card will feature no less than five bouts, each of which will have three one-minute rounds.
