Kumasi, Gold Coast (now Ghana) - 26 June 1953

Post by olij999 »

Source: Boxing News 15 July 1953 p10, "Round The Commonwealth" results:

Heavy: Jack Toller W KO 4 Tony Galento Afoakwa (Toller ID# 199255, Afoakwa ID# 945611)

Feather; Ginger Nyarku D PTS 8 Sower Aafer (Nyarku ID# 110315. As for "Aafer", this is more difficult. Likely that fighter's names were reversed and that surname was Sowah. If so, could be Adjetey Sowah, ID# 101381, who was fighting that distance at that weight around that time. Or possibly Jackie Sowah, ID# 220126, to whom the same applies. Suggest starting a new record for "Aafer Sowah" or similar for the time being until other evidence comes up).
