Cabic Promotions staged the Pound 4 Pound Night of Glory at Cleaver House on Friday, where 3 African titles were on the line.

The night in full

Dana Kofi beat Nigerian veteran Raimi Isiaka by a 7th-round TKO to win the WBO Africa Super Welterweight title.

Emmanuel Mankattah Sackey beat Ezekiel Annan to claim the WBO Africa Lightweight title.

Samuel Opaogun, known as Omo Daddy, beat Jesse Lartey for the WBA Africa Gold Welterweight title after Lartey retired on his stool in the 4th round with a leg injury.

Cabic also used the night to launch a new regional clubs competition, with gyms from across Ghana competing against each other before fighting for national titles.

At the amateur level

Ghana finished 11th among 28 nations at the 2026 IBA Africa Elite Championships in Kinshasa, with 2 medals.

Amadu Mohammed won silver in the men’s 57kg featherweight division after losing 3-2 to Zambia’s Mwengo Mwale in the final. Joseph “Jaguar” Commey won bronze in the men’s 63.5kg division.

The Black Bombers are now targeting the inaugural IBA President’s Cup in Istanbul, from 27 November to 4 December, as part of their build-up to LA 2028.

The Freezy Macbones story

Freezy Macbones (Seth Gyimah) won the WBO Africa Light Heavyweight title in October and has been celebrating everywhere, including a viral post of him wearing his belt while grocery shopping at Accra Mall.

His old rival Jonathan “Worldwide” Tetteh, also known as Bukom Banku, has been calling for a rematch on social media. Freezy has said on social media that their chapter is over and that he will not fight him again, only spar with him.

What’s next

Ghana’s undefeated Nathaniel Suppey (10-0) faces Kenya’s Rayton Okwiri in a WBA Africa Gold Middleweight title fight in Nairobi on 28 November.

Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller is reported to headline Matchroom’s second event in Ghana on 20 December. Matchroom’s first Ghana show was in December 2025 at Legon Sports Stadium. No opponent has been officially announced.

New prospect Umar “GhanaBoi” Musah, 26, won his pro debut in the US by a 1st-round TKO over Molique Artis on 17 October and wants to fight in Ghana in December.
