He was Nauru's sole representative at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.[2] He achieved a personal best by lifting 386 kg in the super-heavyweight category.[3]

He took part in the 2010 Commonwealth Games, and after being described as Nauru's best hope for a gold medal there,[4] he won silver.

At the 2014 Commonwealth Games, he was Nauru's flagbearer.[6]

Detenamo's father and older sister are also weightlifters, as are other members of his family.[7][5] His father introduced him to the sport, which Detenamo took up at the age of 10.[6]
