The Nigerian Boxing Board has rubbished the rumor that-it has hand in Bash Ali’s Guinness World Record boxing fight

Pro boxer Bash Ali’s Guinness World Record boxing fight, has nothing to do with the Nigerian Boxing Board of Control.

The ministry said in a statement released “the government distanced itself from the fight via series of documents and correspondence with Bash Ali”
