It is a good thing for boxing in the country. Now more people will get to know that boxing is something here. It’s a welcome development.
“People are going to be aware and the boxers also will be more fired up. Although I would have liked to see him visit a few places to really see the condition of boxing there.
“You know he just stopped by for a few hours just to see the country, meet a few people. I’m sure sooner or later we’re going to see him back again to do some more serious things. We’re working together with him also to discover some of these talents. That is why we’re looking for all the people that have what it takes.”
