What do world champion heavyweights Azumah Nelson, Ike Quartey and Joshua Clottey all have in common? They were all raised in Bukom, Ghana.
The densely populated community is vastly inhabited by fishermen, but fishing is not their only export.
The city is renowned for having produced the most world boxing champions from Africa, and for the first time, British-Ghanaian film-maker Scilla Owusu explores and dissects how this Ga-Mashie community made boxing their cornerstone in a raw and riveting 60-minute documentary.
Isufu "Ike" Quartey is a Ghanaian former professional boxer who competed from 1988 to 2006. He held the WBA welterweight title from 1994 to 1998, and challenged once for IBF junior-middleweight title in 2000.
