I�ll Be A Gospel Musician When I Retire From Boxing � Ayittey Powers

Australian-based Ghanaian boxer Michael Ayittey Okine, popularly known as Ayittey Powers has disclosed to UTV news that he will become a gospel musician when he retires in the near future.

Ayittey Powers, a staunch member of TB Joshua’s Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) says he already has a couple of gospel songs.

The songs he said were composed from the inspiration by Prophet TB Joshua.

“[When] I retire from boxing, I am going to be a musician as well and the name Powers will still be there,” he said.

“I am a gospel artiste and I have a lot of gospel songs about my prophet because his God made me reach this far and I have a lot of gospel songs about the man of God,” he added.

“I have all these great fans behind me and I think I have the fame and the fans are still there. My name Powers will still remain. I am a gospel musician as well and soon I will release my latest as well.”

The light heavyweight boxer further said he is deeply into music and believes the music will take his name far just as boxing has done to him.

He emphasized that the love for the pugilistic sport has not waned.

“I love boxing. Boxing is my everything. I eat boxing, drink boxing and do everything with boxing. I have to retire at the age of 43-45 and walk away just as every boxer does. Now I have the strength but in three years’ time I might not have the same strength to do anything in boxing again and I will call it a quit.”

Ayittey Powers has lost twice to popular boxer Braimah Issah Kamoko also known as Bukom Banku and after their aggressive shows, Powers appeared to prove no match for Kamoko.
