Dharry, Kassim ready for thrilling boxing showdown this Saturday

After two prior postponements, Elton Dharry and Salmin Kassim are set to clash in the boxing ring at the Guyana Boxing Board of Control’s (GBBC) Fight Night this Saturday at the New Pegasus.
During a press conference held at the Old Pegasus on Thursday, GBBC President Peter Abdool expressed his delight that the

match is finally happening.
“Everything that could have gone wrong went wrong for this fight; we had to postpone twice, but we are here now,” Abdool remarked.
Dharry is confident and eager, eyeing the chance to become Guyana’s eighth world champion in professional boxing.
“Everybody knows what they get from me. I will respect him in and out of the ring, but when we get in there, I am looking to become champion, and I will become Guyana’s next world champion,” he stated.
Kassim, on the other hand, plans to let his punches speak for themselves as he strives to be Tanzania’s first world champion.
In a separate but intense confrontation, Keevin Allicock and Dexter Marques, who are set to battle for Guyana’s featherweight title, had a fiery exchange, with Allicock challenging Marques to risk his pay cheque.
The Fight Night will showcase eight bouts, including four amateur matches, with the action kicking off at 19:00h this Saturday evening at the New Pegasus.
