Ray Narh's fight in Macau postponed

By Prince Dornu-Leiku

The WBC international super

lightweight championship fight between Ghanaian Sugar Ray Narh and Prawet

Singwancha of Thailand scheduled for China mainland of Macau this Saturday July

30 has been postponed to August 27 due to some technical challenges.

Narh, (25-2, 21 KOs), famously known to his fans

as the Emperor is smarting from his second career loss in his last fight

against American Mike Alvarado last May 7. It is a defeat he blamed on an

illness hours before entering the ring, and is counting on victory against the

experienced Singwancha (46-3-2, 26 KOs) to authenticate his claim for bragging

rights among the big boys of the light welterweight division of world boxing.

Now he has to wait a bit

longer to state his case against the 34 year old Singwancha who has held the

WBC International Light welterweight belt since taking it via a unanimous

points decision victory over Heri Andriyato in April 2009 and has previously

also twice challenged for the WBA Lightweight world title.

“Nothing much, I’m just

a little sad but it’s going to give me a little more time to practice to go for

the kill. I just want all of my

true fans to take note of the new development and keep on supporting me with

their prayers,” Narh told SportsInGhana.com from his USA base.

It is however not too

clear if the rescheduled fight on August 27 will still take place at the

Venetian Macao Casino, Macao, Macao S.A.R., China.
