Former Bantamweight National Champion and East/Central African Regional Champion (ABU Regional), Abdul Ssebute has entered into an agreement with Albion Boxing Academy Cambridge Management and Nara Promotionz from Uganda for a period of three (3) years to manage his talent as a professional boxer.
The management team will oversee his training by providing training facilities, hiring experienced trainers to guide him through the process, and helping to secure opportunities with top promoters in the United Kingdom for better fight nights.
Abdul Ssebute, who is currently working as a chef at Hobson Hotel Cambridge, one of the best hotels in the UK, said he is happy that his prayers are being answered by getting a proper team to promote his boxing career.
“I am very happy about this partnership that i hope will yield fruits in the future. It’s a great opportunity for me to work with this new management that i believe will turn my dreams a reality.”
He said that without a proper management team, it is very difficult to progress in the business of professional boxing in the UK. He also thanked Hobson Hotel where he works, his new management team, and Nara Promotionz for giving him this opportunity.
His manager Gary Davidson Jnr, a former boxer and now a manager under Albion Boxing Academy Cambridge, together with trainer Tony Petchell, said they were impressed by Abdul Ssebute because he is a disciplined and talented boxer.
During the meeting where the agreement was reached, Nara Promotionz Director Lubowa Babu Hussein and Nara Promotionz Secretary Edirisa Kiyemba were also present and fully supported the partnership and contract.
Hobson Hotel Cambridge has also expressed willingness to support and sponsor Abdul Ssebute during his fight nights. They are welcoming Ugandans to visit their facilities across the UK, as they have different branches and are ready to welcome everyone.
