Ghanaian lightweight boxer Jonathan Tetteh was disqualified for not meeting the weight threshold in his category at the 2024 Olympic Boxing World Qualifiers.
The boxer, who is popularly known as ‘Worldwide’, was supposed to weigh 80kg but was at 80.60 kg, preventing him from competing in the prelims.
His German opponent, Schumann Kevin Boakye, had a walkover into the next round.
