BOXING CANCER KNOCKS OUT CAMEROON BOXERS IN GROZNY
▪️National team head coach Alain Didier Ngatcha cites biased officiating in the defeat of his boxers against Russian opponents
Cameroon boxers travelled to Russia with high hopes of excelling at an international tournament in Chechnya’s capital city Grozny, Russia.
They didn’t achieve their goal. Biased officiating, which has now become the cancer of boxing, denied them victories.
Their hopes of returning home with medals have therefore been dashed following controversial losses to Russian opponents, according to national team head coach Alain Didier Ngatcha.
“My boxers beat their Russian opponents but they stole all my victories. At the end the organizers recognized their injustices and asked for apology,” Ngatcha told boxersworld.co.ke from Grozny.
Went on the coach:”My boxers Oumarou Mohamed, Baguiguana Beb Georges and Wouang Marcial boxed very well against Russian opponents but the judges robbed them victory.
“As for Fotouo Totap Junior, after validating his medical examination and the official weighing, he had discomfort that did not allow him to fight. He felt unwell. He was to fight Kazakhstan boxer in the quarter-finals.”
The Grozny tournament was in memory of the first President of the Chechen Republic Akhmat Hadji Kadyrov.
