The first time I and my friends saw Azumah Nelson at the 1978 Ghana Sports Festival(Sports Hall) we knew, he will be A World Champion. We were calling Small Boy Dangerous. Very Small but Very Courageous. He beat them all at his weight. l watched all his fights at the Kaneshie Sports Complex those days. But l never saw or watch his fights, when he became A World Champion.

Those days my dad and my elderly brothers would stay awake watched his bout and gave us the results on Sunday morning.He was a great boxer and couldn't speak proper English during interviews.Instead of him to speak one one like normal Ghanaian English,he always chose to speak an American slang.What a beautiful great fighter, good man and a winner.

In all his interviews available on YouTube, he spoke proper English. Even though he came from Zuarungu, he grew up and schooled in Accra.

Azumah was seriously disadvantaged to be born in Gh. Had he even naturalised for any north american nation and fought for them. he would be seriously eulogised. those european and north american boxers are all over the place signing autographs, granting paid interviews etc. In gh there is no hall of fame, no policy for retired boxers. its like the leaders are clueless behaving like headless zombies
