Ivorian Boxing Legend Celebrated in Abidjan

Ivorian boxing legend Séa Robinson was celebrated in Abidjan at the 50th anniversary of his historic 1976 fight against world champion Elisho O'Bed.

At 81 years old, the former boxer was honored at a gala boxing event held at the Palais des Sports, the same venue where he fought Elisha O'Bed in April 1976. Robinson had narrowly lost that bout by points decision.

The anniversary gala featured nine boxing matches, bringing together fans to commemorate the legendary boxer's career and his close encounter with the world champion. tbzikra.com
