He was chosen to represent England in the 70 kg division at the 2025 World Boxing Championships in his hometown of Liverpool.[4][5] In his opening bout, Kamara forced his opponent, Shpetim Bajoku from Kosovo, to take three standing eight counts before winning via unanimous decision.[6][7] Next he knocked Canada's Kuwardeep Manu to the canvas just three seconds into the first round of their round-of-16 contest and went on to claim a unanimous decision victory.[8][9] Kamara defeated Otgonbaataryn Byamba-Erdene of Mongolia, again via unanimous decision, in the quarter-finals.[10][11] He lost to Kazakhstan's Torekhan Sabyrkhan via 4:1 split decision in the semi-finals and was therefore awarded a bronze medal.[12][13]
