Boxer Paul heads to England for live-in camp

Paul, who competes in the super heavyweight division, will leave this week for England.

Paul was this country’s lone boxer at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. In other boxing news, The Arena organised by ACT TV continues with the elite boxing showcase at the Cosmic Boxing Gym in Marabella on Saturday, from 7 pm.

These bouts are televised and its popularity is encouraging more fans to support boxing, while giving the TT boxers the necessary exposure and preparation they need for regional and international tournaments.

Although TT did not win a medal at the 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games in Bahamas from July 18 to 23, the Trinidad and Tobago Boxing Association congratulated the young national boxers for their effort.
