Ghanaian UK-based boxer Seth “Freezy Macbones” Gyimah has clinched the WBO Africa Light Heavyweight championship after defeating Nigeria’s Godday “Zodsolo” Appah in Lagos, Nigeria.
The bout, featured as the headline event of the “Chaos in the Ring” promotion at the Balmoral Convention Centre, saw Gyimah deliver a disciplined and relentless performance on foreign soil. The 37-year-old fighter controlled the tempo across the majority of the rounds, utilizing superior ring movement, continuous combinations, and high-energy work rates to outpoint his opponent. Despite a mid-fight resurgence from Appah, Gyimah regained his composure in the championship rounds to seal a majority decision victory.
The triumph marks a significant career milestone for Macbones, who turned professional at the relatively late age of 27, cementing his return to the top tier of continental light heavyweight boxing following a previous title loss late last year. Speaking after the decision, the newly crowned champion expressed immense pride in his journey, emphasizing the resilience required to secure a major continental belt on opponent territory.
