Ace Power Promotions, Symmetry Gears sign sponsorship deal

Boxing promotional syndicate, Ace Power Promotions (APP), yesterday signed a partnership agreement with Symmetry Gears, distributors and marketers of sports wears and equipment.
The deal was to strengthen ties between the two institutions, support their athletes with boxing equipment and promote their brand through boxing promotions.
Speaking on the sponsorship, General Manager of Symmetry Gears, Mr. Emmanuel Jojo-Forson said the deal formed part of their social responsibility and pledged his firm’s unflinching support to the promotion of boxing on Ghana.
“One of our social responsibilities is to support boxing and other sporting disciplines. We are open to collaborate with firms who will need our services to build their brand and also provide sporting gadgets to athletes who excel in their respective fields,” he said.
Mr. Jojo-Forson said, the partnership will last for a year and be renewed yearly.
Speaking at the event, Managing Director of APP, Mr. Isaac Amankwah expressed his profound gratitude to Symmetry for the timely intervention.
“This partnership means a lot to us because of the kind of boxers we work with. Most of these boxers can’t afford training equipment and with Symmetry coming on board at this time will help them in their careers,” he said.
Mr Amankwah was optimistic that the partnership will go beyond just sponsorship but also market both parties to the world.

![Man United flop Antony our greatest-ever signing —Betis chief ANTONY gave a glimpse against Nottingham Forest as to why Real Betis sporting director Manu Fajardo believes the Manchester United flop might be "the most import¬ant signing" in the club's history. The 25-year-old has been reborn in Andalusia after an underwhelming stint at Old Trafford, where he failed to get anywhere near justifying the lofty fee paid to Ajax three years ago. Antony arrived for an eye-popping €95 million ($111.6m), plus a potential €5m in add-ons, but failed to consis¬tently impress and fell down the pecking order at United. The Brazil international sparkled after joining Betis on loan in January and made the move permanent after protracted talks brought a deadline-day switch for up to €25m. United included a clause that gives them 50% of any future deal for Antony, who followed a smart assist with a late goal to secure a 2-2 draw in Wednesday's Europa League opener against Forest. Betis sporting director Fajardo told the PA news agency: "I am 100% sure that maybe Antony is the most import¬ant signing in Betis' history. "Everything [about the signing] be¬cause the talent, the level of the player, the level of the club as Manchester United a big team, a big project, so I am 100% sure that Antony is the best signing in Betis' history." "In the first moment we spoke with Manchester United for Antony to stay in Betis one year more on loan. "But for Antony, for Manchester it was very, very important to recover the investment, so for Betis it was not easy. The move was so much for us. "But Manchester United made a big effort, Betis made a big effort, Antony made a big, big effort to play here again. Maybe in that situation that was the secret." Betis may not be able to compete with Premier League clubs' financial clout, but they boast talent that Fajardo hopes can see them to push for Europa League glory this season. "For Betis it is not easy to sign players from Premier League, because the dif¬ference in respect to the salary between the Premier League and LaLiga is too big," Fajardo added. "But when a player like Antony, for example, wants to come to Betis it's easier. "Antony only thought to play in Betis again, so when you have a negotiation with a big club in Manchester United, a club that paid a big amount for Antony, it's not easy. But the player wants to play in Betis."-ESPN](https://ghanaiantimes.com.gh/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Antony-220x150.jpg)
