According to him, his dream as a child was to be the President of Ghana.

“As a child, you would say whatever you want to do. If I didn’t do boxing, I would want to be a president. I said what I wanted to do,” he said.

Speaking to Agyemang Prempeh on Legends show on Tv XYZ about why he ventured into boxing, Mr. Azumah revealed that his dad used to be a boxer.

“My dad loved boxing but my grandfather won’t allow him to go that so when I was young… my dad took me out to watch a boxing match… When we got there, two small boys were fighting but one was older than the other. When they were done, I saw tears run down the small boy’s eyes as I saw him cry I felt the older one had cheated on the small boy so I told my dad I want to fight with the older boy and he said okay but I insisted on fighting right now not know there is a process you have to go through before you can fight but I was thinking if it’s fighting then let’s go right now because the older boy had cheated the small boy so I wanted to fight for the small boy. I think I slept and woke up the next morning, I realized I was home and I told my dad to take me to where they fought yesterday,” he added.

“As time went on three to four years later, I went to my mom’s family house at timber market there, I saw a man with small boxing shoes on his shoulders walking with a small boy.
