獅心的津巴布韋拳擊項目遭受然而,另一個路障

紐約, 紐約, 三月 26, 2015-獅心拳擊製作’ gallant effort to resuscitate professional boxing in Zimbabwe may have been dealt a fatal blow. The Zimbabwe Boxing Board’s unexplained failure to act on a request by the company for permission to stage a boxing tournament in Harare may be the final straw that broke the camel’s back on the company’s “以星項目.

 

在十二月 2014, Lion Heart’s Board of Directors met and resolved to have one final go developing Boxing in Zimbabwe by exploring the possibility of promoting a quarterly boxing series in Harare starting in April 2015. 其結果, 該公司決定派其CFO, 愛德華·門迪, 津巴布韋負責的目的只有一個 - 調查託管在哈拉雷拳擊比賽的可行性舉行 四月 16四月 23, 2015 與以星的第35屆獨立日的慶祝活動相結合, or other date as feasible. Ancillary to same, 門迪的任務是以下: (1) 確認的日期, (2) 保證場地, (3) book Zim boxers to feature in the Main Event, 和/或合作的主要事件, 和 (4) 安全委員會的批准舉辦的活動.

 

建議月的主要事件 2015 inaugural event was slated to feature Former Two Time British Champion and Two Time Commonwealth Champion Danny Williams (46-18) 承擔布拉瓦約自己Thamsanqa杜貝 (12-3), a former WBA Pan-African Champion. In the Co-Main Event, 納米比亞和前世界冠軍哈里·西蒙 (30-0) was selected to take on an opponent to be announced. The Undercard was to be highlighted by a special feature boutWBC Africa Welterweight Charles Manyuchi (15-2) 是捍衛他的冠軍稱號在本土的首次,或只是做一個評價的戰鬥 (受他的贊比亞發起人克里斯Malunga和他的合作夥伴的認可). Manyuchi is currently the most internationally recognized Zimbabwean Boxer and has been plying his trade in neighboring Zambia since 2012 for lack of options at home. The event would have been broadcasted live on ZTV and streamed live worldwide on the Internet. 進一步, 該事件將已經通過區域體育頻道在美國轉播的延遲基礎, 其中可達 165 萬美國有線電視家庭 (以上 100 萬獨立家園) 採用獅心拳擊製作’ established contractual relationships. 另外, 該事件被提名進行區域和其他市場的銀團, 全球可行.

 

為促進公司的津巴布韋野心, 門迪離開紐約哈拉雷日 26, 2015 on exploratory mission. He was received warmly by Zimbabweans of walks of life and spent a very enjoyable and productive ten days in Zimbabwe, visiting various cities and meeting with people. Lion Heart was able to achieve all of the stated goals except the last one, 確保擬議活動ZBB支持, 儘管原定於門迪議程的第一次會議是董事會. 不幸, 不但津巴布韋拳擊理事會沒有提供必要的點頭, 它甚至不會召開董事會正式會議,聽取門迪或表獅心的計劃. 至今, 三個星期後,, Lion Heart has not received any correspondence from the Board on its application to host an event in May. The only information it has received relative to the event is from media reports, 以董事會需要更多時間來審議效果.

 

由於ZBB的非反應性, Lion Heart regrettably has decided to put its Zim Project on hold indefinitely. Says Lion Heart Event Coodinator Sporty Smith, “We have no choice but to put our Zim Project on hold since the ZBB has failed to afford us the smallest of professional courtesy. We can understand a Board’s refusal to sanction an event it does not like it. A failure by a Board to reply, 為了趕它提出否則無法communcate, 然而, is unheard of. Not only was the board frosty in its welcome of Edward Mendy, it would not even convene a meeting of the board even though advance arrangements were made with it. 進一步, the Board would not even give us the courtesy of a response despite numerous follow-up inquiries. What is most shocking about the whole thing, 該ZBB的行動 (或不), 是,它並不像ZBB已批准在其本屆任期任何真正的拳擊比賽, 一個任期三年十二月到期, 或已計劃在其日曆的任何拳擊比賽. 無論是比獅心敲板的門或努力促進津巴布韋拳擊比賽之外的任何發起人. 從而, 我們真的感到困惑給出了非常熱烈的歡迎,並毫不掩飾的熱情我們的項目從拳擊手,否則收到, 教練, 拳擊界的其他成員, 傳媒, tourism and other government officials as well as ordinary Zimbabweans. Basically we have a Boxing Board that has seen no boxing events in its current term, 但它不採取行動之前提交的唯一真正的拳擊事件, 並與國際公認的在那開始就提出的重大賽事。”

 

獅心的努力,以幫助發展拳擊在津巴布韋的運動, 該 “以星項目,” 已經跨越了十多年. In addition to sponsoring various tournaments in Zimbabwe over the last decade, 獅心拳擊製作和它的主人曾試圖幫助推動眾多津巴布韋拳手的職業生涯, 包括當時的不敗Thamsanqa杜貝和以實瑪利Kuckocha, 通過贊助他們促進其在美國的訓練和職業. 然而, 儘管它認為是自己最大的努力, 獅心拳擊製作已非常有限的成功,其以星項目,並有很少或沒有表現出其艱鉅的努力,有助於推動拳擊在津巴布韋.

 

津巴布韋拳擊比賽的獅心發起並沒有達到預期的財務業績. 進一步, 各地方推動者和津巴布韋的合作夥伴 (比吉爾伯特Munetsi其他) that Lion Heart Boxing Productions had contracted with over the years had turned out to be unreliable and unproductive. Many of local promoters and partners promised much and delivered little. 進一步, the Zimbabwe Boxing Board would not approve the signing of any of the fighters that Lion Heart had interest in the 2000’s. 最近, 獅心答應幫一個小地方啟動, 三角洲部隊促銷, with an event he planned by securing the event’s purse money and depositing same with the Boxing Board. The local Promoter, 然而, was unable to organize the event to the Board’s satisfaction. After that experience, 獅心終於解決了 2014 to give up on its Zim Project. 然而, 獅心深信通過捷鎮的作家和前ZBB董事會成員吉爾伯特Munetsi堅持其以星的努力,並繼續工作的項目以星.

 

說公司CFO愛德華·門迪, “說實話, equal credit for our perseverance on the Zim Project should go to Gilbert Munetsi and I. But for our continued pleading and my obstinacy in the face of adversity, 獅心就早已終止了進軍津巴布韋拳擊。”

 

添加門迪, “經過十多年的努力,而不在我們以星項目的成功, 我們缺乏在嘗試登錄各種以星拳擊手的成功帶給美國的 2004-2005, 與考克斯Chigwana在慘敗 2013 而我們最近的努力失敗,以幫助克萊德Musonda和他的三角洲拳擊製作得到的理由,他們在事件 2013-14, 我們只需要面對現實津巴布韋可能不是我們. Our trials and tribulations in Zimbabwe are well-documented, covered in great part by the Zim media and well-known to members of the current Board. While I am not one to give up easily, I learnt a long time ago that there is really no sound business reason for force a promotion in a jurisdiction with an unfriendly board. This is very unfortunate considering the scale of the proposed May event, 其潛力,助推拳擊在津巴布韋,並作為可持續體育旅遊車輛, 已入以星項目的其他利益相關者和工作的大量的熱情。”
