Alfred Kotey still boxing!

[Old bones Ian]

I was looking at the undercard for Klitschko v Chisora , and i see that Gabor Veto is boxing Alfred Kotey, I thought that can't be the classy former WBO bantam champion, and to my dismay it was

He looked class when fighting on these shores , he beat Rafael Del Valle to win the title at York hall and made 2 defenses here , including a brutal KO of Drew Docherty.

He never managed to win another world title , but showed great toughness to go the distance with many class boxers.

At 42 and now a Light-welter Alfred hasn't boxed for 2 years, but is facing a guy who's 21-0 and also 21 years younger.
I hope the old champion comes though ok.

Yeah, he was and presumably still is a very good fighter, the Ben Tackie of the lighter weights.

The K2 team have hearts of gold!
Nice matchmaking!


Adios.

I remember him clearly. Probably Ghana's what, fourth best fighter?

[Jeff Thomas]

Never ever stopped despite all the names he's fought- what a fighter.
