Samuel Quaye beats Daniel Quaye to defend National Super Lightweight Championship

In a gruelling twelve-round battle, Samuel Quaye of The Gym Boxing Club defeated Daniel Quaye, also known as "High Tension," of the Bronx Boxing Gym to defend his National Super Lightweight Championship.

The bout took place at the Bukom Boxing Arena on the historic "Fists Of Carnage" bill, organized by Box Office Boxing Promotions, Twinstars Boxing Promotions, ACE Power Promotions, and Aborigines Boxing Promotions on Saturday, June 15.

Before the bout, there had been heated verbal exchanges and altercations between both camps; indeed, the two boxers not only shared the same surname but were also neighbours.

Samuel Quaye, nicknamed "No Chance," found himself being deducted a point for a foul. Down the stretch, a similar punitive measure was meted out to his opponent. By the tenth round, the fight seemed pretty even, though both boxers showed signs of fatigue.

It was a back-and-forth battle with the pendulum swinging at every turn, but Samuel Quaye caught his second wind and began to impose himself. He mustered that extra mettle and finished strong—retaining his title by a unanimous decision.

Samuel, managed by Mr. Ahmed Nureni-Davis of Twinstars Boxing Management, was full of ecstasy.

The defeat was Daniel Quaye's first in 8 fights as a professional.

"We'll have him defend the belt a couple of times and then move ahead. He has to completely dominate the local scene before we advance further," said Twinstars CEO Mr. Davis regarding plans for Samuel Quaye.

Samuel Quaye, on his part, said he was ready for further challenges. "I'm ready for anyone. Let them come," he declared.
