Sam Darkwah said the meetings form part of SP Sport’s commitment to building strong community partnerships and engaging key stakeholders to promote professional boxing, empower young talents, and create opportunities for boxers in the Northern Region.
He said the ‘Northern Rumble’ is more than a boxing event — it is a platform for youth empowerment, sporting development, and the celebration of our hardworking farmers.
“We are empowering the youth through sports- boxing- and Honouring Our Farmers. It is time to build champions from the North,” he stressed.
The ‘Northern Rumble’ is fixed for December 5, 2026, and will feature hot encounters and lovely exchanges. In fact, many boxers have expressed interest in appearing on the show.
