The energy surrounding the upcoming boxing event on the 28th is already building, and one fighter who plans to deliver fireworks inside the ring is Desmond Amsterdam.
During a recent media session hosted by The Guyana Boxing Board of Control, Amsterdam made it clear that fans can expect an exciting performance when he faces Kevin Hilton of Jamaica. Calm and composed, the Guyanese boxer spoke with the quiet confidence of a fighter who has spent years proving himself both regionally and internationally.
“I’m here to represent Guyana,” Amsterdam said. “I’m here to put on a show. It will be exciting, so I advise everyone to come out and support.”
That message alone has captured the attention of boxing fans, many of whom already know Amsterdam’s reputation for delivering explosive performances in the ring.
The Berbice-born fighter has spent years establishing himself as one of the Caribbean’s top boxing talents. His achievements in the amateur ranks earned him recognition across the region, and his transition into the professional arena has only strengthened his standing as a serious contender on the international stage.
Currently ranked among the top fighters globally, Amsterdam’s goal remains clear: to climb the professional ladder and ultimately bring a world championship to Guyana.
“I’ve been representing Guyana for years,” he said. “My aim is to become a world champion and make my country proud.”
While the matchup against Kevin Hylton promises to be competitive, Amsterdam showed no hesitation when asked about the outcome.
“I’m confident,” he stated firmly. “I know I will come out victorious.”
Fans who have followed Amsterdam’s career know that his fights often end quickly. His aggressive style and knockout power have produced several decisive victories, turning his appearances into must-watch events.
But when asked whether another knockout should be expected on the 28th, Amsterdam kept his strategy close to the chest.
“That depends on the opponent,” he said. “It depends on how the fight goes once I step into the ring.”
What he did promise, however, was a performance worthy of the fans who come out to support.
As fight night approaches, anticipation continues to grow. With national pride, power, and confidence on his side, Desmond Amsterdam is preparing to step into the ring with one goal in mind—victory.
And if his words are any indication, the crowd should be ready for a night of high-energy boxing action.
