Elisha Obed

Elisha Obed was a renowned Bahamian boxer who made history on November 12, 1975, by winning the World Boxing Council’s light middleweight title. His impressive amateur career included a 46-0 record before turning professional at the age of 14, ultimately achieving a record of 91 wins and 22 losses. Despite his remarkable achievements, he has not yet been formally honored by the Bahamian government, leading to ongoing calls from the boxing community for recognition of his legacy.
