Career
There he was stopped in the first round of the men"s light flyweight division (– 48 kg) by Morocco"s Hamid Berhili. He followed that up with an unsuccessful bid for the Commonwealth title in England that same year. In 2007, he lifted the West African Boxing Union Featherweight championship, but plagued by managerial problems, was inactive for the next three years having only two contests.
At the close of 2010, once again winning the national title, this time the vacant Featherweight belt, fortune smiled on Tetteh when local football and business magnate, Nana Adjei Ampofo, signed him to his fledgling Union Promotions with the intent to steer Tetteh to a world championship.
The two victories catapulted him into the top ten of World Boxing Organization"s rankings making him eligible for a shot at the WBO world title.
