Stanley Nyantakyi moved from Kumasi to Accra in 2019 at the tender age of 18 to follow his boxing passion.
After a long search for a suitable place to hone his skills, he settled on the Bronx Boxing Gym, led by veteran trainer Carl Lokko.
In four years as an amateur boxer in the featherweight division, Nyantakyi has recorded seven knockouts in eight bouts and seeks to win a world title whilst dominating a space filled with Accra-based fighters.
