Bristol, a former amateur boxer and manager, has been a source of support for the sport for some time. In the past he has donated equipment and trophies, assisted in overseas travel and contributed towards the encampment of boxers.

Bristol, the nephew of former Commonwealth junior middleweight champion Kenny Bristol, stated that he will be looking to his uncle and former Commonwealth lightweight champion Lennox Blackmore to make the one-night card a success.

He further stated that this event will help to develop our young talent and prepare them for other engagements and hopes it would be a memorable one.

“This event is not about making money but rather giving back to the sport and allowing those from the diaspora, back home for the Anniversary, to have a look at our young and upcoming fighters. My belief is that it is a fitting thing to do” he added.
