The Philippines man known as “The Silencer” is without doubt one of the better technical stylists from that country. He has scored 15 wins against some top opposition, and he managed to put 11 of those victims to sleep. So you don’t need to ask why the ring name !

Arnel Baconaje is high caliber in the 126-130lb weight class, and it would be accurate to say, he would start a solid favourite to win this match at those weights.

But he moves to 135lb here – and he also moves to Dinh Hong Quan’s domain !

So he gives away size, height and reach here – and that is where this bout becomes a real 50/50 proposition.

The claims are that Dinh Hong Quan will be a vastly improved fighter for this, and he will need to be, as Baconaje represents a significant step up on the less experienced Jules Victoriano, and that was an extremely close contest.

VENGEANCE HAS A NEW NAME

Arnel Baconaje "The Silencer" has been one of the Philippines' outstanding boxers of recent years, and will get the opportunity to take his talents to an international stage later this month.
The Silencer will meet the man that many regard as the best prospect in Botswana - Steven Bagwasi. 
This boxing prodigy has a 9-1 record, and is touted as a future world star by those in the know.
But Arnel Baconaje is not one for reputations, and whilst respectful of his quality opponent, is certainly not daunted. The RP National champ sees a spot for himself on the world stage, and knows that an emphatic win over a star like Bagwasi will cement his position. 
Baconaje has been the victim of some horrible decisions in the last couple of years, so on the road against Steven Bagwasi, he will leave nothing to chance.
"I know I have to hurt him to get his respect. 
This is my first time to fight an African, so I'm very excited. Tell him the Silencer is coming!"
Vengeance has a new name.

"BACONAJE WILL THINK HE'S IN WITH A LION"

Take that sucker !
Steven Bagwasi confirms his status as one of, if not the, hottest properties in Botswana boxing, handing out another one sided beating.
Bagwasi will face Philippines super featherweight champion Arnel Baconaje at Maun Stadium on March 30th, and he is looking forward to the task with laser focus. 
The boxer from Mahalapye was on the sidelines in 2023, but prior, had built an imposing 9-1 record. His lone loss was way back in 2018 by way of points to South Africa's champion Ayanda Nkosi (who was also WBF World Champion) 
Many in Africa have a huge opinion of Steven Bagwasi, and likewise, he is a boxer with self belief. 
"I will take Arnel Baconaje on a wild safari. When we are done, he will be thinking he is surrounded by lions. I am really looking forward to this one."

BACONAJE TO TAKE ON AFRICAN STAR

Classy Elorde boxer Arnel Baconaje will head to Botswana next month as part of a formidable Asian Team that will do battle with African nations. 
"The Silencer" will take on Steven Bagwasi - a boxer that many rate as one of the most outstanding talents in Botswana. 
Bagwasi has 8 wins on his resume, with only one loss, which was back in 2018 to South Africa's national champion Ayanda Nkosi.
But to tame a lion like Bagwasi, plenty of hard work and lots of skill will be required, and Arnel Baconaje "The Silencer" was working on both today. Mixing it up with Arnel in sparring at Elorde was Japanese visitor Reito Takahashi, a highly promising 135lb fighter.

NAKANO AND BACONAJE PICTURE PERFECT

Unbeaten Japanese star Mikito Nakano and Philippines national champ were both within the 130lb limit at today's weigh in.

The two fighters will box 8 rounds tomorrow night in Korakuen Hall Tokyo.

Nakano has a formidable reputation, being unbeaten in 7 fights, resolving 6 of those with thudding stoppages.

Arnel  Baconaje "The Silencer" represents the Japanese power puncher's most significant test so far, and he will be stepping into the ring confident of handling anything that Nakano has to offer.

WILL THIS MAN PUT AN END TO SLAIN PINOY ?
August 3, 2023

WILL THIS MAN PUT AN END TO SLAIN PINOY ?

This is the man that stands in the way of emerging Japanese star Mikito Nakano maintaining a perfect kill rate of pinoys on his unblemished fight record.

Arnel  Baconaje "The Silencer" meets Nakano next Tuesday night at the iconic Korakuen Hall, and flew out from Manila today with coach Toto Laurente.

Mikito Nakano boasts a record of 7-0 with 6 knockouts, and most tellingly, he has been as brutal as he has been flawless with his pinoy body count.

Arvin Yurong, KJ Natuplag, Juanito Paredes and Lorenz Ladrada  - all quality boxers in their own right, but were slain and dispatched in body bags at the hands of the ruthless Japanese technician.

But Arnel Baconaje is cut from different cloth, and having sparred numerous top opponents such as Naoya Inoue in Japan previously, he is better equipped than his predecessors for the impending battle.

The Silencer's most recent outing was a RP title win over Jhon Gemino in May, so he will be heading to Japan confident that Nakano's dominance over pinoy fighters will be tested to the limit next Saturday.

BACONAJE DOMINANT IN RP NATIONAL TITLE

BACONAJE DOMINANT IN RP NATIONAL TITLE

Iloilo native Arnel Baconaje put on an exemplary boxing display to secure the Philippines super featherweight belt just moments ago.

Baconaje dominated early, but was part on alert by a dangerous and resurgent Jhon Gemino in rounds 4-6. Gemino showed good head movement and landed some quality shots, but Baconaje remained composed.

Arnel Baconaje controlled the action well in the second half, relentlessly jabbing, shoulder rolling defense, and answering Gemino with straight rights and uppercut.

The fitness and resilience of both boxers was excellent, but in the end, it was the well executed game plan of perfect distance and timed counters that proved the deciding factor for the judges.

GUARANTEED TO STEAL THE SHOW AT OKADA

Surely a match made in heaven - Arnel  Baconaje "The Silencer" has his eyes set on the RP National belt, but who better than "The Disaster" Jhon Gemino to thwart those ambitions ?

Baconaje v Gemino has been added to what is already a huge undercard to the Casimero bout at the Okada Casino on May 13th, and realistically, could really catch fire and become the fight of the night !

Arnel Baconaje has proved to be one of the Philippines classiest boxers in recent years, and is desperate to show that he is is the best super featherweight on the local scene.

The Disaster shapes as a bit of an unknown quantity, as despite three losses at his most recent, they were narrow points decisions against quality international opposition.

Jhon Gemino is world class when he is at best, having previously knocked out unbeaten Americans Toka Clary and Arnold Alejandro. The Parañaque based fighter also gave world champion Emanuel Navarrete a hell fight before being ultimately stopped in a great clash.

And be at his best he will need to be, as Arnel Baconaje is intent on wearing the Philippines national belt next Saturday  !

Friday training at Elorde Southbox , and there were three really good ones in the ring today !

King's Warrior Charly Suarez, MMA prospect Ian Batoto, and the Silencer Arnel Baconaje engaged in light sparring for upcoming bouts.

Baconaje heads to GenSan this week for a crack at the Philippines national belt on Sunday February 26th.

Charly Suarez has a big assignment if his own. He heads to Sydney very soon, where he will challenge Aussie #1 Paul Fleming for four major belts. A win places Suarez in the world top 10 with three of those, and perhaps makes him mandatory for both IBF and IBO world titles.

Exciting fights coming up !

BACONAJE SET TO SILENCE GEN SAN

Arnel Baconaje takes the show on the road, when he heads to General Santos City for a national title bid on Sunday February 26th.

"The Silencer" faces top local prospect Presco Carcosia (10-2) for the Philippines national super featherweight title. Success guarantees the winner a top 10 ranking with the OPBF.

Arnel Baconaje has been in great form, having competed recently in Vietnam in December 2022.

Despite competing above his weight class, the pinoy turned in a fantastic performance in his bid for the IBF Asia Lightweight title.

In a match that could have gone either way, Baconaje lost narrowly on points on two cards, and was given a draw on another. It was an epic contest, and a valiant effort by Vietnam's Dinh Hong Quân, but there were many in attendance that thought the win should have gone to The Silencer.

You can watch the match here and judge for yourselves.  It is the brand of Arnel Baconaje action that will be heading to GenSan next week and winning a national title !

BACONAJE LOOKS TO BECOME TOP DOG

BACONAJE LOOKS TO BECOME TOP DOG

Arnel Baconaje was recently in Vietnam at VSP Gym prepping for a December match with Vietnam  champ Dinh Hong Quân.

That was a bout in Ho Tram for the IBF Asia Lightweight title, and despite the match being above his usual weight class, Baconaje and Quân fought an extremely close battle.

The Philippines man revered as "The Silencer" returns to the ring in General Santos City (the former home of Manny Pacquiao) on Sunday February 26th. And this time, it is another big fight.

Baconaje takes on the "the Iceman" Presco Carcosia (10-2 9KO) for the Philippines national championship at Super Featherweight.

The weight class will be more favorable this time, but he faces a seriously skilled and fast opponent in Carcosia, so it should be a great main event.

VSP are big admirers of Arnel Baconaje, who always prepares well and turns in excitement filled performances, so we wish him luck in pursuit of the Philippines title next Sunday.

ANOTHER YEAR - ANOTHER JOURNEY

Was it ever in doubt ?  

YAP IS BACK !

Mark John Yap makes his eagerly awaited ring return at UKC REVOLUTION 2023 against former Manny Pacquiao sparring partner Leonardo Doronio.

Yap has the reputation as one of the Philippines' best internationally performed boxers of recent years, thus earning him The Journey Man tag, and he will be looking to embark his 2023 trip with a great performance at home.

The former bantamweight star has only recently made the super featherweight division his new home, yet will challenge Doronio at Lightweight, such is the difficulty in getting the Mindanao product decent competition in a season opener.

Mark John Yap produced a classy performance against Charly Suarez for the WBA Asia title, and endorsed that effort with an impressive win over Papua New Guinea's best Junior Kauko Raka.

Yap then ventured to Vietnam to compete at Fortunes of War, and looked good in a fast paced short format exhibition event.

Leonardo Doronio is a very experienced boxer, who will hold the advantage of being the slightly larger man. He posted good wins over Bryan Macamay and Jimmy Borbon, before a points loss to outstanding pinoy Arnel Baconaje.  He will prove to be a great measure of where Mark John Yap is early in his 2023 adventure.

But the word is out - Yap is back !  

January 30th marks the start of a new journey.

*story courtesy Vietnam News

In his 12th pro match, IBF Asia lightweight champion Đinh Hồng Quân will face Arnel Baconaje of the Philippines over 12 rounds. It is his second time defending his belt. Last July, he defeated Jules Victoriano of the Philippines unanimously.

HÀ NỘI — A blockbuster "Fortunes of War" boxing event will bring together Asia's best fighters in 12 bouts, including three title matches, sanctioned by the IBF and WBO on December 10 at The Grand Hồ Tràm Strip, Bà Rịa Vũng Tàu Province.

In his 12th pro match, IBF Asia lightweight champion Đinh Hồng Quân will face Arnel Baconaje of the Philippines over 12 rounds. It is his second time defending his belt. Last July, he defeated Jules Victoriano of the Philippines unanimously.

The rising Vietnamese star does have a size advantage. Quân has recorded nine wins (4KOs), one draw and one loss (KO).

At 24, 'Black Eagle' Quân is younger than his rival and stands at No 189 in the world, 43 places higher than Baconaje.

However, 'The Silencer' Baconaje has bowled over some of the Philippines' biggest and best stars. Of his 15 wins, 11 came by knockout. The 29-year-old has suffered five losses, three by knockout.

Baconaje has thoroughly prepared by training with the famous fighter "Japanese monster" Naoya Inoue.

Quân completed a training camp in South Korea before having an intensive training camp with legendary Manny Pacquiao in the Philippines.

"I feel in way better shape, my camp has been good, and being able to train with a legend like Manny Pacquiao has helped me a lot," said Quân.

"He is a model of hard work to succeed in boxing, as well as an example of rising up in boxing. Professionally, I learn, practise and improve my abilities to prepare well for the upcoming matches. I won't let people down."

Quân said that Pacquiao advised him a lot. In particular, the most memorable is the practice motto "fight hard, complete the exercises and always have faith".

"Everybody will see a far better Đinh Hồng Quân this time, and I already know I will beat Arnel Baconaje. I am excited about it. I am very happy to have the challenge of stopping a top fighter like Baconaje in front of my home country," he said.

The second title match is between IBF Asia super-featherweight Charly Suarez of the Philippines and Indonesian Defry Palulu in a 12-round bout.

Their match was scheduled in March 2020 but was cancelled due to the pandemic.

Suarez is a three-time SEA Games champion who won the 2014 Asian Games silver. He turned pro in 2019 and impressed the community with 13 wins with seven KOs.

Suarez has stayed busy this year as he fought for the WBA Asia title in March and defended it twice in July and October. He also won the Philippines national title in the process.

Palulu is currently No 1 in his country. He places 162 in the world with a record of 25 wins, two draws and two losses. He took the IBO Asia Pacific and WBC Asian Boxing Council super-featherweight belts in 2019.

"The Unseen Hammer" is in career-best shape and has been working on angles and power shots to halt the meteoric rise of Suarez.

"That is our plan. Team Palulu have worked very hard for this, and we will not let this opportunity slip," he said on vsppromotions.com.

"Suarez does not have the power to hurt me, or even hold me off. But I know when I catch him, he will go down. Indonesia will have a new champion on December 10."

The third title match is between South Korean Song Chan Ho and Thai Anusong Thonglueang, who will defend his WBO Oriental Youth super-lightweight belt across 10 rounds.

Song, 19, unbeaten in eight fights, is certainly living up to his "Purge Boy" ring name.

He is fast and has a high work rate, nice footwork, and works some clever angles. He is durable and is developing some power to go with his accurate hands.

Tàu City.

Thonglueang, 18, has already created media attention in Thailand, where he has put together 12 wins (9KOs) with only one loss in extra quick time. He is a dynamic all-action fighter and knows how to be effective inside the ropes.

Other matches with Vietnamese fighters are between Nguyễn Văn Hải vs Paisal Panjaitan of Indonesia in the lightweight class in four rounds; Phạm Minh Quân vs Mark John Yap of the Philippines in the super-featherweight in four rounds; Lê Hoàng Hiệp vs Jetro Pabustan of the Philippines in the super-bantamweight in four rounds and Thái Hoàng Huy vs JonJon Estrada of the Philippines in the featherweight in four rounds.

Why does Vietnamese Boxing really need international events at home like Fortunes of War?
December 7, 2022

Why does Vietnamese Boxing really need international events at home like Fortunes of War?

NEWS FROM WEBTHETHAO

Professional boxing events in Vietnam began to rekindle in the period of 2015, when management units such as Vietnam Boxing Federation (VBF) or Ho Chi Minh City Boxing Federation. Ho Chi Minh City (HBF) organizes this form of competition, with the participation of famous boxers in the domestic amateur boxing village. After that, promotion companies began to appear with names like VSP Promotions, Cocky Buffalo, Saigon Sports Club, VBC, Trigger Boxing... continued to appear to bring more national elements. economic: events, title matches, friendlies.

However, it was not until 2018, when the promoters really embarked on a comprehensive approach, at this time, the challenge for the development of professional boxing began to really appear.

To be recognized at the professional level, competitions must be under the supervision of organizations capable of recognizing professional achievements around the world. This supervision is based on the rules - the rules of the game (regulations) are specified in the operating regulations of professional organizations such as WBC, WBO, WBA, IBF...

In Vietnam, the presence of these organizations is not much. Therefore, boxers have only one option: to conduct tours in countries with developed boxing backgrounds such as Thailand, the Philippines, Japan, Korea, ... to be recognized for their achievements. However, the issue of funding, training procedures - competing with Vietnamese boxers is not a simple problem, despite the participation of experienced promotion companies in the region.

As a result, promoters have opted for a more pragmatic approach: organizing events right in Vietnam. To do this, they need to contact to get the approval of professional organizations in the world, through sending professional teams, supervising the organization and competition of martial arts.

Since 2019, units like VSP Promotions have made their mark with a series of events such as Victory 8, VSP Pro,... bringing Vietnamese boxers to participate in professional matches at home, recognizing their achievements. in the international system, gradually removing barriers for boxers who want to pursue this path.

From professional events, title fights began to appear. Victory 8: Legend of Hoan Kiem with the title of WBA East Asia; events of IBF, WBO at The Grand Ho Tram Strip with champions Dinh Hong Quan, Song Chan Ho... and here comes Fortunes of War with 3 matches for WBO - IBF title in weight classes on 10th December.

Not only for boxers, bringing international events to Vietnam also creates opportunities for domestic professionals, namely management units, referees, supervisors, etc. exposure to professional environment according to world standards. From there, events in Vietnam will gradually move to international level - something we all want in the development of all sports.

Following the success of two title events in April and July, Fortunes of War witnessed the title defense of the IBF Asian champion -  "Black Hawk" Dinh Hong Quan  in his 11th fight. The fighter born in 1998 will face the boxer from the Philippines -  "Silent Assassin" Arnel Baconaje.

In addition to the defense of the IBF Asian lightweight title between Dinh Hong Quan and Arnel Baconjae, Charly Suarez - a three-time SEA Games gold medalist and silver medalist at ASIAD 2014 will welcome an opponent from Indonesia - Defry Palulu for the IBF title. Asian super-featherweight.

Previously, WBO Oriental champion from Korea - Song Chan Ho will face Thai boxer Anusong Thonglueang in his title defense match. The competition took place over 10 rounds in the super-lightweight division.

The event will also embrace the fun side of boxing, and will avail three novice Vietnam prospects the opportunity to share the ring with top foreign professionals. These exhibition bouts will be fast and furious and held over 4 rounds - if they go that long!

Congratulations

to our friends at The Grand Ho Tram for being such great supporters of boxing, and for hosting the most iconic sports event in Vietnam this year.

A perfect way to end 2022 !

QUAN: "BACONAJE WON'T GO THE DISTANCE"

Vietnam's defending IBF Lightweight champion Dinh Hong Quân is already in great shape for his impending clash with Arnel Baconaje, and has plans to make it an early night.

"I had to lose a lot of weight way too fast for my last fight with Jules Victoriano, and I must admit he was a very tough opponent. I feel in way better shape this time, my camp has been good, and being able to train with a legend like Manny Pacquiao has helped me a lot.

A lot of people say it was a very close fight with Philippines last time, and it was, but most did not know that I had no sparring before that match. Everybody will see a far better Dinh Hong Quân this time, and I already know that I will hurt Arnel Baconaje.

It's a very good match, I am excited for it. I am very happy to have the challenge of stopping a top fighter like Baconaje in front of my home country. "

VIETNAM v PHILIPPINES FOR THE IBF CROWN
November 14, 2022

VIETNAM v PHILIPPINES FOR THE IBF CROWN

Dinh Hong Quan is gaining the reputation as one of Vietnam's most improved and fearless fighters.

On December 10, the man revered as the Black Hawk, will defend his IBF title on home soil against one of Asia's best at 126-130lb - Philippines' very own Arnel Baconaje.

This will the third defense for the Vietnam champion, and admirably, he has taken on quality opposition each time. The Black Hawk originally won the IBF belt on foreign soil against the very experienced Korean Dong Hee Kim, dispatching his opponent with a showreel left hook !

Since then he has defended against emerging pinoy boxers Delmar Pellio and Jules Victoriano, both of whom enjoyed physical batlles with the Vietnam boxer.

Arnel Baconaje represents another rise in class for Quân, and there is no doubt that at 130, the Philippines man known as "The Silencer" would start an overwhelming betting favourite. But this battle will be at 135lb,  and will be held in Dinh Hong Quân's backyard.

It's Vietnam v Philippines  its Black Hawk v The Silencer  and its the IBF Asia title on the line !

THE SILENCER TO SHOOT BLACK HAWK DOWN !
November 10, 2022

THE SILENCER TO SHOOT BLACK HAWK DOWN !

Arnel "the Silencer" Baconaje is Vietnam bound, and he has only one objective on his mind.

To defeat the man known as the "Black Hawk", Vietnam's Lightweight champion Dinh Hong Quan, and return to his native Philippines wearing his IBF belt.

Cocky Buffalo prospect Quan has successfully defended the IBF belt twice already, and whilst they have been hard fought bouts against quality pinoys, it is also fair to say that the young Vietnam boxer is still making technical improvements with each challenge.

He is also getting bigger and stronger.

But the Silencer has no interest in any of that !

As its equally fair to say that he is far more experienced boxer than the two previous opponents of Dinh Hong Quan, and is more definitely more skilful at landing meaningful punches. The Philippines boxer from Iloilo has landed 11 knockouts in his 15 wins.

This is a classic main event, where based on experience, the Philippines Arnel Banconaje is the man to beat and would start a solid favorite.

But you can't rule out the Black Hawk, as he just keeps improving and rising to each new challenge.

If you're a Vietnam fan and haven't seen Baconaje before, check out some of his bag work from late last week. Crisp and precise.

He will be looking to clip the wings of the Black Hawk on December 10.

DINH HONG QUAN TO FACE BACONAJE DEC 10

Vietnam's Lightweight champion Dinh Hong Quan will face Philippines Arnel Baconaje at the Grand Ho Tram Strip for the IBF title on December 10. This will be as significant a main event as the country has ever seen, where incumbent champion Dinh Hong Quan (9-1) faces his sternest test to date against the skilful pinoy boxer.

The Vietnam rising star has the size advantage, yet Baconaje has bowled over some of the Philippines' biggest and best scoring, 11 knockouts in his 15 wins to date.This is a massive main event with both fighters having the genuine attributes to claim the IBF prize.

Dinh Hong Quan will join the Manny Pacquiao training camp in preparation for his December assignment, whilst Baconaje is currently in Japan working with pound for pound star Naoya Inoue. The match between Dinh Hong Quan and Arnel Baconaje will take place at The Grand Ho Tram Strip in Vietnam on Saturday December 10th.

BACONAJE TESTS ENGLAND IN AUSTRALIA

BACONAJE TESTS ENGLAND IN AUSTRALIA

*story courtesy of Yahoo! News

Arnel Baconaje will gun for his second straight win as he takes on Aussie prospect Jackson Jon England on Sept. 2, 2022 in Australia.

Baconaje beat journeyman Leonardo Doronio last March 12 in Parañaque City. He will be gunning for his first win overseas after losing to Yasutaka Ishimoto in Japan, Lingjie Xia in China and Ivan Kozlovsky in Russia.

The 24-year-old England is looking to bounce back after suffering a unanimous decision defeat at the hands of unbeaten Paul Fleming on March 23, 2022 in Sydney. The 28-year-old Baconaje is 15-5 with 11 knockouts, while England is 13-2 with eight knockouts.

Meanwhile, featherweight prospect Lorenz Ladrada locks horns with Aussie hard-hitter Dana Coolwell on July 2 in an eight-round contest at the Gold Coast Convention Centre in Broadbeach, Queensland, Australia.

Ladrada is looking for his second straight win after beating Jason Buenaobra by unanimous decision in his last fight on Dec. 4 in Parañaque City.

This will be Labrada’s biggest fight to date and his first international fight.

Coolwell, a former Australian champion, wants to return to his winning ways after losing to Ender Luces in an International Boxing Federation Youth super featherweight fight last April 13 in Queensland. The 23-year-old Coolwell’s other loss is also via a split decision Jake Wyllie last year. The 25-year-old Ladrada is 11-2-1 with three knockouts, while Coolwell is 7-2 with five knockouts.

THE SILENCER HEADING DOWN UNDER
June 28, 2022

THE SILENCER HEADING DOWN UNDER

Big news breaking is that outstanding Philippines boxer Arnel Baconaje has secured a big fight in Australia on September 2nd.

The man known as "the Silencer" will take on gifted local Jackson Jon England who boasts a 13 and 2 record. England was responsible for perhaps the best fight seen in Australia this year, when narrowly outpointed by Paul Fleming for four major titles, including WBC, WBA and IBF belts.

The match in Perth on September 2nd gives Jackson Jon England a chance to avenge that controversial loss, but his task against Baconaje, who is among Philippines elite, will be daunting.

BACONAJE AND ESTRADA SHARPEN TOOLS

BACONAJE AND ESTRADA SHARPEN TOOLS

Arnel Baconaje and JonJon Estrada will head to Japan to punch holes in former WBO world title holder Tomoki Kameda.

The Japanese fighter has been relatively quiet during the pandemic, but resumes on July 30 to take on quality Dominican William Encarcion.

Kameda boasts an impressive 38 and 3 record, and interestingly, his only loss in recent years was to the unbeaten Rey Vargas, the very same Mexican that is soon to face Mark Magsayo!

Opportunities to work with foreign fighters are always great ways to build skills, but one also has to spare a thought for the rugged Kameda. It surely will be no picnic trading leather with the Wolverine and the Silencer.

Double Trouble!

ARNEL BACONAJE WINS
March 12, 2022

ARNEL BACONAJE WINS

Great performance by Arnel Baconaje to win by shutout over an extremely resilient Leonardo Doronio.

Baconaje landed more frequently, and also had the power ascendancy, over a bigger opponent. He also controlled the ring with excellent movement.

It was definitely an improved version of Doronio today, he looked fit and imposing. He just struggled with Baconaje's movement,  and he will no doubt fare better with a less mobile opponent.

THREE KINGS !!!

THE JUICER2 SHOW COMING YOUR WAY !

Ben "the Juicer" Mcculloch was one of the best boxers Australia has ever produced, winning 14 straight and getting to world rank #3 as a super middleweight. His signature was his beautiful balance, distance and rotational power, often producing decapitation style knockouts. And it always looked so effortless!

Arnel Baconaje is as close as we've seen to the Aussie star, and he is a standout as one of the Philippines best and most technical operators. The Iloilo fighter shows really good patience in setting his shots, makes good angles, and dispenses the pain with plenty of high and low variety. His defensive base is solid, and he simply never gives cheap shots away to opponents.

Says McCulloch : "I love this guy, especially when I've seen him work with Suarez and Pumicpic. He has the really nice distance and jab, and has that nice Bernard Hopkins /James Toney roll that I used to love when I fought. But you know what, I can see a lot of Canelo in JUICER2, he really is QUALITY !"

Juicer2, also known as "the Silencer ",will be appearing next week at TIGER 2O22 in Manila. Tune in, and judge for yourself ! He is a special fighter.

LET'S MEET AT LIGHTWEIGHT !
February 6, 2022

LET'S MEET AT LIGHTWEIGHT !

Arnel Baconaje is without doubt one of the Philippines' best and most technical boxers.
He is also one of the most difficult to match!
"The Silencer" is a very skillful and solidly built 130, with a big KO ratio, and unfortunately, had three opponents drop out en route to TIGER 2O22.
Enter saviour Leonardo Doronio !
The internationally experienced, and former Manny Pacquiao sparring partner, resumed from a lay off in December, and produced a really solid win against Jimmy Borbon at 140 super lightweight. Doronio looked "heavy" in that match, and despite his strong showing against an improved Borbon, gave the appearance that a drop in weight class would really suit.
So when the call went out for a quality opponent for the much ducked Baconaje, Leonardo Doronio was quick to answer. But how to make a fight happen between fighters two divisions apart?
Simple - let's meet in the middle !

Watch Philippines national champion Ben Ligas assault on the IBO Intercontinental belt tonight when he takes on hot South American boxer Andres Campos.

Campos was unbeaten in 15 fights before dropping a points decision to world champion Sunny Edwards in June.

Ligas 15-3 takes on Chile's Andre Campos 15-1 for the IBO Intercontinental Fly title, and is expected to be easy pickings for the South American.

Campos had been destroying everything in his path in a 15 fight winning streak, before a points loss to world #1 Sunny Edwards in June of this year. The Chilean was only a fraction behind in that contest, and surely The Sniper represents a far easier task for him !!

But the Philippines national champion Ben Ligas will have other ideas, and as you can see from today's weigh in, he cuts an imposing figure and looks set to create a major upset in Australia tomorrow night.

MARK JOHN YAP IN WBC ASIA TITLE BID

Breaking news is the announcement that Philippines Mark John Yap will fight in Bangkok later this month for the WBC Lightweight crown.

Cagayan de Oro product Yap will challenge Thailand champion Apichet Petchmanee (15-1) for the belt that he secured back in late 2022. Petchmanee has been very dominant at home, and suffered his lone points loss abroad at Korakuen Hall against the outstanding Japanese boxer Katsuya Yasuda (10-0)

Mark John Yap has been a revelation since fighting Charly Suarez in Manila one year ago. He had previously done his best work at Bantamweight and was contemplating retirement, but rose to meet Suarez at 130lb.

Despite losing that contest, Yap looked in great touch, and is unbeaten in 4 subsequent fights.

He has defied the stigma of increasing weight, but Petchmanee looms as his first serious test at 135lb.

BABY KONG HITS WINNING FORM

VSP PRO has already showcased some excellent boxers this year, and what has been most exciting, is the improvements that many of the Vietnam fighters have brought to the ring when they have competed more than once.

But the man known as "Kong" - Le Hoang Hiep -  is one Vietnamese fighter that really stands out !

After suffering a "controversial" loss early this year, Hiep has been simply outstanding since scoring two electric wins at VSP PRO.  And there are all the positive signs that this fan friendly boxer is sure to win many more in the near future.

Hiep works with former World ranked super middleweight Ben Mcculloch in this video at VSP Gym.

SUAREZ IN HAND CAST FOR 6 WEEKS

SUAREZ IN HAND CAST FOR 6 WEEKS

The King's Warrior will have his broken right hand in a protective cast for the next 6 weeks, but the good news is, he is expected to make a full recovery.

Suarez staged an amazing effort to stay composed after injuring the hand early in round one, and being put under constant pressure by excellent Dominican Yohan Vasquez.

It was a bitter sweet US debut for the Philippines best boxer, who will be hoping for a ring return later this year.

CHARLY SUAREZ BREAKS HIS HAND

CHARLY SUAREZ BREAKS HIS HAND

Despite a dominant win at his USA debut, the King's Warrior Charly Suarez was the victim of misfortune.

Suarez broke his hand early in round one, forcing him to turn to his amateur skills and box his way to victory. The Philippines star turned southpaw frequently in the bout to ensure he survived  the ten rounds against his rugged opponent Yohan Vasquez.

SUAREZ WINS ON USA DEBUT

SUAREZ WINS ON USA DEBUT

Charly Suarez turned away a scrappy challenge from Yohan Vasquez to enjoy a successful U.S. debut. after a ten-round, unanimous decision victory over Dominican Republic’s Vazquez. Scores were 98-92, 98-92 and 97-93 for Suarez in the opening bout of the evening.

Action from bell to bell was entertaining and competitive, to the point where Vasquez (25-4, 20KOs) was disappointed when he heard the lopsided scores. Suarez landed the crisper combinations and cleaner punches but was forced to fend off Vasquez who effectively cut off the ring in the middleweights.

Suarez—a 35-year-old from General Santos City, Philippines—regained control late in the fight to advance to 16-0 (9KOs). The bout was his third straight on the road, having previously posted wins in Vietnam last December and a come-from-behind 12th round stoppage of unbeaten Paul Fleming on March 15 in Sydney, Australia.

Vietnam Pro Boxing market update
August 27, 2023

Vietnam Pro Boxing market update

Tính tới tháng 8/2023, theo thống kê từ trang BoxRec - nơi ghi nhận thành tích của giới Boxing chuyên nghiệp, số võ sĩ người Việt Nam đang thi đấu là 110 võ sĩ (77 nam, 13 nữ). Đây rõ ràng không phải một con số khả quan với một quốc gia 100 triệu dân.

So sánh với các quốc gia khác trong khu vực, Philippines đang có 764 võ sĩ (753 nam, 11 nữ) trên 103 triệu dân. Thái Lan sở hữu 781 võ sĩ (634 nam, 147 nữ) trên 67 triệu dân. Số lượng võ sĩ của Việt Nam hiện mới xếp trên các quốc gia không nổi trội về Boxing chuyên nghiệp trong khu vực như Indonesia (91 võ sĩ), Singapore (16 võ sĩ), Malaysia (11 võ sĩ),...

Boxing Việt Nam bắt đầu trở lại từ những năm đầu thập niên 2002 kể từ sau lệnh cấm từ năm tại giải Vô địch Quốc gia 1994 ở Hải Phòng. Kể từ đó tới nay, chúng ta đã chứng kiến những bước tiến đáng kể ở đấu trường nghiệp dư: HCV SEA Games 2011, 2015, 2021 và 2023; HCĐ Asiad 2014, 2018; có ứng viên giành vé chính thức dự Olympic Tokyo 2020 gọi tên Nguyễn Thị Tâm - Nguyễn Văn Đương.

Dù vậy, Boxing chuyên nghiệp lại là câu chuyện khác khi đây là thị trường cần sự tham gia của các công ty tư nhân, hay còn được biết tới với tên gọi hình thức xã hội hóa.

Những nhà vô địch châu lục và thế giới có thể là hình mẫu để các công ty quảng bá đánh dấu hoạt động của mình tại thị trường Việt Nam. Tuy nhiên, câu chuyện "đào rộng trước khi đào sâu" vẫn là thách thức mà tất cả đang cùng phải giải quyết, bởi một nền Boxing chuyên nghiệp không thể chỉ dựa vào tên tuổi của những nhà vô địch ít ỏi.

Theo thống kê của BoxRec, từ năm 2015 tới nay, 27 sự kiện Boxing chuyên nghiệp đã được tổ chức tại Việt Nam, chỉ bằng với số sự kiện được tổ chức tại Philippines từ tháng 7/2015 tới nay. Có lẽ, đây cũng chính là câu trả lời cho việc tại sao số lượng các võ sĩ chuyên nghiệp Việt Nam ít đến như vậy.

Hãy thử quan sát theo hai hướng sau: Nếu một công ty quảng bá muốn gây sự chú ý, họ sẽ cần những sự kiện lớn, với các trận tranh đai. Tuy nhiên, một sự kiện như vậy chỉ có thể cho phép tối đa 10-15 trận đấu. Liệu những võ sĩ mới bắt đầu thi đấu chuyên nghiệp có được lựa chọn xuất hiện tại đây?

Nếu tổ chức một sự kiện nhỏ, tạo cơ hội cho các võ sĩ mới xây dựng bảng thành tích, xuất hiện trên BoxRec với những trận đấu đầu tiên. Sự kiện đó sẽ không đủ sức hút với khán giả cũng như tạo tiếng vang trong cộng đồng.

Chúng ta không thể trách khán giả chỉ chú ý tới những sự kiện lớn như Victory 8, Fortunes of War, LEAD có sự xuất hiện của những võ sĩ nổi tiếng, nhưng điều đó chỉ đáp ứng được bề nổi của bài toán phát triển, mà không giải quyết được vấn đề cơ bản: số lượng võ sĩ.

Bài toán số lượng võ sĩ bắt đầu được tính đến giai đoạn cuối năm 2022, khi VSP Promotions giới thiệu chuỗi sự kiện chuyên nghiệp VSP Pro, liên tục đem đến những màn ra mắt của các võ sĩ chuyên nghiệp. Mục tiêu của VSP Pro không gì khác ngoài tạo dựng bảng thành tích cho các võ sĩ chưa tên tuổi, cho phép họ làm quen với sàn đấu chuyên nghiệp. Các trận đấu của họ được công nhận bởi những tổ chức WBO, IBF, WBC, cùng với các tổ chức Boxing tư nhân của Nhật Bản, Hàn Quốc hay Philippines.

Tương tự, LEAD Boxing sau hai sự kiện đầu tiên, cũng cho thấy sự xuất hiện của những cái tên chưa hề có tiếng tăm trong giới Boxing Việt Nam. Thành tích của họ bắt đầu được ghi nhận bởi các tổ chức như WBC, WBA.

Việc các công ty quảng bá bắt đầu dành nguồn đầu tư của mình cho các "tân binh", đã phần nào cho thấy bài toán số lượng của Boxing chuyên nghiệp Việt Nam đang được tìm cách giải quyết. Chúng ta cần nhiều sự kiện, nhiều cơ hội cho những võ sĩ mới, hơn là chỉ tập trung vào các trận đấu lớn chỉ để thu hút sự chú ý.

Fight 7: Lương Nguyễn Công Khải hòa điểm Trương Ngô Gia Huy
August 26, 2023

Fight 7: Lương Nguyễn Công Khải hòa điểm Trương Ngô Gia Huy

Tay đấm 28 tuổi dày dạn kinh nghiệm Lương Nguyễn Công Khải đánh dấu sự trở lại sàn boxing nhiều một thời gian khá dài nghỉ đánh vì chấn thương. Trong khi đó dù ít hơn đến 8 tuổi nhưng Trương Ngô Gia Huy cũng có thâm niên nhất định tập boxing và đạt thành tích ở giải boxing nghiệp dư quốc gia.

Áp sát đối phương với thể thủ high-guard trước khi tung ra đòn jab và móc cực nặng, lối đánh của Công Khải tưởng như đơn giản nhưng đạt hiệu quả rất tốt. Đặc biệt lực đánh của tay đấm từng phải nghỉ dài vì chấn thương vẫn rất đáng nể.

Vẫn lối thi đấu nhìn khá đơn giản, Công Khải ghi điểm với cú over-hand nặng ký trúng mặt đối thủ ngay đầu hiệp 2.Trong khi đó, ở những tình huống bị ép góc tay đấm trẻ Gia Huy cũng có những tình huống trả đòn bằng combo đấm móc trúng đích, nhưng lực đánh còn khá khiêm tốn.

Hiệp 3 chứng kiến võ sỹ trẻ Gia Huy tích cực di chuyển và ra đòn nhưng những đòn đánh của anh thường đi trúng đôi găng đã thủ thế sẵn của Công Khải. Ngược lại, dù ra đòn ít hơn nhưng Công Khải có những cú over-hand, móc phải thực sự nặng ký và chất lượng.

Hiệp đấu hai tay đấm vẫn không đẩy cao nhịp độ. Công Khải lộ rõ thể lực đi xuống và những đòn over-hand của anh cũng không còn tạo ra đột biến. Trong khi đó Gia Huy có những combo đấm móc phản đòn hiệu quả. Đây là hiệp đấu tay đấm 19 tuổi có lẽ là tìm thấy nhiều nhất đòn đấm trúng đích nhất trong cuộc so găng này.

Với việc cả hai không thể tìm thấy đòn knock-down và kịch bản trận đấu khá cân bằng, không ngạc nhiên khi 2/3 giám định chấm điểm hòa 38-38 và màn so găng giữa Công Khải vs. Gia Huy được thông báo kết quả hòa.

Fight 6: Nguyễn Khắc Dũng thắng điểm Trương Hải Biền

Ở lần thứ 3 thượng đài VSP Pro tay đấm 29 tuổi Khắc Dũng gặp đối thủ được đánh giá "dễ chịu" hơn. Tay đấm Hải Biền mới 17 tuổi và chưa có nhiều kinh nghiệm với boxing. Thực tế được chứng minh khi Khắc Dũng có những cú jab, body shot và đòn móc hiệu quả. Trong khi đó tay đấm trẻ Hải Biền cho thấy kỹ thuật ra đòn còn khá hạn chế.

Hiệp 2 Khắc Dũng tiếp tục duy trì nhịp độ thi đấu chậm, dùng các cú jab tầm thấp trước khi ra đòn móc. Chiến thuật này tiếp tục cho thấy hiệu quả và tay đấm đến từ Hà Nội ghi điểm tốt. Trong khi đó Hải Biền tích cực di chuyển và ra đòn nhưng các tổ hợp đòn chưa thật nhuần nhuyễn.

Kịch bản ở 2 hiệp cuối không có đột biến dù Khắc Dũng tiếp tục giữ nhịp đánh chậm vì thể lực đi xuống. Hải Biền không thể tận dụng được lợi thế sức trẻ, ngược lại, thi thoảng anh còn dính đòn đấm over-hand từ phía đối thủ. Trụ vững đến giây cuối cùng, Khắc Dũng đã có phần thưởng xứng đáng là chiến thắng đồng thuận (39-37, 39-37, 39-37).

Fight 5: Đinh Minh Tuân thắng điểm Võ Hoàng Hòa (giao hữu)

Một trận giao hữu thú vị giữa hai tay đấm rất trẻ mới 14 và 16 tuổi ở hạng 48 kg. Dù mang tính chất giao hữu nhưng chất lượng chuyên môn cuộc so găng giữa Võ Hoàng Hòa và Đinh Minh Tuấn khá tốt khi cả hai tay đấm trẻ này đã tập luyện bài bản và giành được nhiều thành tích ở các giải boxing nghiệp dư trẻ quốc gia.

Hiệp 1 ghi nhận sự chủ động áp sát và có những combo đòn hiệu quả của Đinh Minh Tuấn. Trong khi đó Võ Hoàng Hoa có 1 đòn tay sau nặng ký khiến gương mặt của Minh Tuấn bật ngửa ra sau.

Kịch bản của hai hiệp đấu kế tiếp chứng kiến sự máu lửa của Minh Tuấn khi tay đấm này liên tục ép góc và tung ra các combo đòn móc cực nhanh. Dẫu vậy, Hoàng Hoa cũng có những cú trả đòn tay sau chất lượng.

Bước ngoặt chỉ đến ở nửa cuối hiệp 4 khi trong tình huống ép góc Minh Tuấn đấm móc tay trái khiến Hoàng Hoa loạng choạng mất thằng bằng trước khi dính tiếp cú móc phải cực nặng từ đối thủ khiến trọng tài buộc phải dừng đếm. Dù không thể thắng knock-out nhưng chung cuộc Minh Tuấn vẫn giành thắng điểm đồng thuận với tỷ số 3-0.

Fight 4: Trần Ngọc Thiện thắng knock-out kỹ thuật Nguyễn Tấn Thành

Tay đấm mới 17 tuổi Tấn Thành nhập cuộc phấn khích khi liên tục áp sát ra đòn. Tuy nhiên, Ngọc Thiện nhanh chóng cho thấy kinh nghiệm với một loạt đòn đấm móc nặng ký trúng mặt đối thủ. Liên tiếp những phút giây thi đấu sau đó Ngọc Thiện có những đòn móc và upper-cut trúng đích chất lượng. Hệ quả trúng đòn nặng khiến miếng bảo vệ hàm của Tấn Thành rơi ra và anh cũng bị chảy máu mũi. Trước khi hiệp 1 khép lại Ngọc Thiện còn kịp tặng cho đàn em Tấn Thành combo đòn bài bản trúng mặt rất hiệu quả.

Kịch bản ở hiệp 2 không thay đổi khi những đòn đánh của Tấn Thành chủ yếu là đòn jab không thể vượt qua thế thủ của Ngọc Thiện. Trong khi đó dù là đòn jab hay đấm móc Ngọc Thiện đều ghi điểm tốt khi đều ghim trúng phần mặt đối thủ. Trọng tài thậm chí phải dừng trận đấu để bác sỹ kiểm tra vết thương của Tấn Thành khi gương mặt anh đổ máu khá nhiều.

Hiệp 3 mới trôi qua 1 phút Tấn Thành lại dính các đòn móc và tay sau khá nặng vào vùng giữa mặt. Ngay sau tình huống trận đấu đã phải dừng lại và phần thắng knock-out kỹ thuật được tuyên cho tay đấm của Matrix Boxing Trần Ngọc Thiện.

August 26, 2023

Fight 3: Huỳnh Đoàn Tuấn Thành thắng điểm Hồ Minh Chiều

Tay đấm trẻ đến từ Đồng Tháp, Hồ Minh Chiều cho thấy tốc độ di chuyển và ra đòn rất nhanh. Minh Chiều có kinh nghiệm nhỉnh hơn và từng thi đấu boxing nghiệp dư, nhưng tay đấm 19 tuổi Tuấn Thành cũng cho thấy sự tự tin khi đôi công khá tốt.

Hiệp 2 tiếp tục chứng kiến tốc độ di chuyển và đổi đòn của hai tấm đấm trẻ rất nhanh. Minh Chiều ghi điểm tích cực hơn với một số đòn tay sau và móc trúng đối thủ trong khi đòn đánh của Tuấn Thành đều không vượt qua được các tình huống phòng thủ high-guard của Minh Chiều.

Hiệp 3 Tuấn Thành chủ động ép đài với tần suất cao hơn tích cực tung ra các tổ hợp đòn. Những tình huống Tuấn Thành ép được đối thủ vào ring và ra đòn jab, móc trúng đích giúp anh ghi điểm. Phải đến cuối hiệp khi Tuấn Thành bị mất đà tấn công trong tư thế chúi đầu về phía trước Minh Chiều mới có đòn đấm khá nguy hiểm.

Hiệp 4 thế trận trở nên cân bằng khi Minh Chiều đáp trả đòn tích cực hơn và phá thế trận dồn ép của Tuấn Thành. Một số tình huống khiêu khích của Tuấn Thành đã khiến khán giả sau đó ồ lên thích thú khi Minh Chiều đáp trả với combo đòn đấm móc cực gắt.

Kết thúc 4 hiệp đấu Tuấn Thành giành phần thắng bằng tính điểm đồng thuận (39-37, 39-37, 39-37).

Fight 1: Hứa Tấn Minh thắng điểm Đỗ Khôi Nguyên

Khôi Nguyên chủ động áp sát ngay từ đầu và có những đòn đấm khá nặng ký. Phải đến cuối hiệp 1 Tấn Minh mới "nóng máy" và có những đòn tay sau trúng đich khá tốt.

Phải đến hiệp đấu cuối cùng Khôi Nguyên mới nỗ lực ép Tấn Minh vào góc đài và kiểm soát tốt thế trận với các tổ hợp đòn móc chất lượng. Những đòn đấm của Khôi Nguyên khiến Tấn Minh rất vất vả chống đỡ. Không thể tìm thấy đòn knock-down, Khôi Nguyên chấp nhận thua chung cuộc khi cả 3 giám định chấm thắng cho Tấn Minh (39-37, 39-37, 39-37).

TRƯƠNG NGÔ GIA HUY DEBUTS AS MAIN EVENT

Mystery surrounds the re-appearance of 19 year old prospect Truong Ngo Gia Huy, who will headline this Saturday night at VSP PRO 7.

Huy has been boxing since he was 8 years old, and showed lots of ability at an early age. His training was rewarded with a National Youth title victory in 2020, but since then, he has gone missing from the Vietnam fight scene.

But it was from seeing friends competing at VSP PRO that ignited his passion to fight once more :

"Le Tien Dat is one of my friends from boxing in the amateurs, and I am very excited to see him perform so well in the pro boxing. He is really impressive. It gives me a lot of motivation to do well. Now it's my turn to shine !"

Huy is prepared by the Ho Ch Minh Boxing Club and has a difficult task on debut. He faces experienced resuming boxer, former city champion Nguyễn Luong Cong Khai.

NGUYỄN KHẮC DŨNG GRABS HIS OPPORTUNITY

NGUYỄN KHẮC DŨNG GRABS HIS OPPORTUNITY

It was only July 29th that Hanoi boxer Nguyễn Khắc Dũng fought at VSP PRO, and plans were for the strongly built Lightweight to return to the ring in maybe 2 to 3 months.

But a late withdrawal of the opponent of Binh Duong team's Truong Hai Bien this Saturday created an immediate chance to fight that Dũng simply could not refuse.

And as they say, fortune favours the brave !

Dũng debuted at just one week's notice against one of Saigon's most promising boxers - former  youth champ Phan Minh Quân. He returned last month in vastly improved shape, but met an equally improved rival in Tran Tan Quang Dao.

The Hanoi boxer showed great sturdiness under pressure, because Dao arguably put on the best boxing performance of the night.

Courtesy of his improvement, the match up between Nguyễn Khắc Dũng and southpaw Truong Hai Bien shapes as one of the most interesting this Saturday night.

Bien is on debut, but has an extensive kickboxing and muay thai background, and the reports from Binh Duong are that he will be well suited to the professional boxing arena.

This fight has been elevated to the main undercard, and be in no doubt that these two hard headed warriors will do it justice !

TRẦN NGỌC THIỆN RETURNS FOR VSP PRO 7

Matrix gym hopeful Tran Ngoc Thiện is back in action this Saturday, after making a solid debut performance here in February.

The 21 year old boxer picked up bronze at the national sports festival last year, and the success motivated Thiện to work harder on his skills. The work paid off, and he boxed a smart fight to oust Nguyễn Qui Thịnh in an Unanimous decision.

This Saturday, Thien faces up to Ho Chi Minh City Boxing Club representative Nguyễn Tân Thành, who is an unknown quantity. Thành will be making his pro debut, but it is well known that fighters from this gym are always in great shape.

But the confidence coming from Matrix is big, and they are warning everyone to expect a vastly improved Tran Ngọc Thiện this Saturday night.

Doors open 6pm. Please arrive early.

LƯƠNG THI NGOAN TO STAR AT VSP PRO

Ho Chi Minh Boxing Club prodigy Ngoan returns to VSP Gym this Saturday night with ambitions to add to her classy debut win in the professional ranks.

A bronze medal winner at the national championships, Ngoan was impressive beating the feisty Huynh Ngoc Yen Phuong back in June of this year.

But the task for Ngoan won't be an easy one !

She faces Hanoi Boxing Academy prospect Le Thu Hoai in what will be a high temp 70kg clash.

Hoai started in boxing in 2019, and has already achieved a silver medal in the club tournament 2022, a bronze medal in the youth tournament 2022, and a bronze medal in the club tournament 2023.

And she is only 17 years of age.

Big potential these two girls.

SUAREZ - FIGHT CAMP DONE - "LET'S FIGHT !"

The King's Warrior Charly Suarez has just completed his preparations in Las Vegas for this Sunday’s fight, and reports he is in killer shape and more than ready to fight.

Suarez will battle Dominican Yohan Vasquez 25-2, a hard hitter with 22 knockouts on his resume.

The Davao son was able to get some fast paced rounds in with both sons of fabled Ferocious Fernando Vargas, and also share the ring with Chris Eubank jr (pictured). Prior to that, the champ worked with Philippines national team members back home in Baguio.

Despite the calibre of his opponent, and the question marks surrounding his first bout in the US, Suarez will enter the ring a heavy favourite to put opponent Vasquez to the sword.

Suarez v Vasquez will take place at the Hard Rock Casino in Tulsa Oklahoma this Sunday.

SUAREZ STAKES UNBEATEN RECORD ON USA DEBUT AUGUST 26

CEBU CITY, Philippines– Charly Suarez, the unbeaten and world-rated super featherweight contender nicknamed “King’s Warrior” will debut in the United States on August 26, 2023.

The 34-year-old Olympian turned professional boxer will face Dominican Republic’s Yohan Vasquez in a non-title bout at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

This will be Suarez’s first fight in five months. His most recent bout was nothing short of impressive as he wrested three regional titles and earned a world title bout.

Last March 15, he went to Sydney Australia to challenge the erstwhile International Boxing Federation (IBF) Inter-Continental, International Boxing Organization (IBO) Inter-Continental, and World Boxing Council (WBC) Asia super featherweight king Paul Fleming.

The Filipino scored a technical knockout in the 12th round against Fleming for a resounding upset.

The victory catapulted Suarez to No. 7 in the IBF super featherweight division, No. 10 in the World Boxing Organization (WBO), and No. 15 in the WBC.

He remains unbeaten with 15 wins and nine knockouts. Besides the three regional titles, Suarez is also the IBF Asia super featherweight king.

Meanwhile, Vasquez, 29, has a more experienced record. The former Dominican Republic lightweight champion holds a record of 25 wins, 20 knockouts, and three defeats.

Emanuel Navarrete simply overwhelmed Oscar Valdez with his work rate in today's world title showdown between Mexico's two best.

Definitely a fight of the year contender.

One of the most interesting inclusions at VSP PRO 7 is that if well known HCMC boxer Luong Nguyen Cong Khai.

Pre 2020, the popular boxer was a regular on the local scene, but shoulder injuries continued to hamper his training and performances.

So enough was enough!

Khai finally submitted to a shoulder operation, which included a lengthy 6 month rehabilitation, and then taking things slowly to regain full functionality once more.

And the news is GOOD !

King Khai is back on August 26th, and by all reports, he is ready to create havoc in the ring.!!

His most recent performance at the Grand Ho Tram was simply devastating, scoring a first punch knockout of the unbeaten 6-0 Abdul Mottalib.

His run of good form has attracted the attention of South Korean promoters, who want to test the Vietnam boxer against their own this coming October.

Nguyễn Văn Hải previously visited South Korea in 2018, when he impressively won an exhibition event in Seoul.

"The Korean boxers are always in great condition and are very brave. They have a big heart. It is an honour to fight them".

BOXING ROYALTY IN THE HOUSE AT VSP PRO

Vietnam has no shortage of great female fight talent, and VSP PRO is giving fans a glimpse of some of the girls that love the sport of boxing.

Le Ngoc Anh (left) was a very impressive winner at a recent event, and she was joined on Saturday night by the inimitable Le Thi Bang.

Bang is arguably the best boxer that Vietnam has produced (of either gender) in recent years, and it was a thrill to see her lending her support to the competing boxers at VSP PRO 6.

NAKANO AND BACONAJE PICTURE PERFECT

Unbeaten Japanese star Mikito Nakano and Philippines national champ were both within the 130lb limit at today's weigh in.

The two fighters will box 8 rounds tomorrow night in Korakuen Hall Tokyo.

Nakano has a formidable reputation, being unbeaten in 7 fights, resolving 6 of those with thudding stoppages.

Arnel  Baconaje "The Silencer" represents the Japanese power puncher's most significant test so far, and he will be stepping into the ring confident of handling anything that Nakano has to offer.

WILL THIS MAN PUT AN END TO SLAIN PINOY ?
August 3, 2023

WILL THIS MAN PUT AN END TO SLAIN PINOY ?

This is the man that stands in the way of emerging Japanese star Mikito Nakano maintaining a perfect kill rate of pinoys on his unblemished fight record.

Arnel  Baconaje "The Silencer" meets Nakano next Tuesday night at the iconic Korakuen Hall, and flew out from Manila today with coach Toto Laurente.

Mikito Nakano boasts a record of 7-0 with 6 knockouts, and most tellingly, he has been as brutal as he has been flawless with his pinoy body count.

Arvin Yurong, KJ Natuplag, Juanito Paredes and Lorenz Ladrada  - all quality boxers in their own right, but were slain and dispatched in body bags at the hands of the ruthless Japanese technician.

But Arnel Baconaje is cut from different cloth, and having sparred numerous top opponents such as Naoya Inoue in Japan previously, he is better equipped than his predecessors for the impending battle.

The Silencer's most recent outing was a RP title win over Jhon Gemino in May, so he will be heading to Japan confident that Nakano's dominance over pinoy fighters will be tested to the limit next Saturday.

Another great night at the fights in Ho Chi Minh City on Saturday.

Many impressive performances, including that of "Young Blood" Le Hoàng Hiệp.

Baby Kong didn't have it all his own way, but put on a great display of boxing to sweep the rounds. Hiệp showed that if you can't out muscle a very strong opponent, then clever boxing with "punches in bunches" will certainly do the trick.

It was the second stunning win in a row for the HCMC based killer.

Dù có 1-2 tình huống đấm trúng mặt đối thủ nhưng chất lượng đòn của Hoàng Long vẫn chưa tốt. Không khó nhận ra sự vượt trội của tay đấm đang thuộc biên chế đội tuyển boxing quốc gia Hà Minh.

Hiệp 2: Hoàng Long chủ động áp sát và có đòn móc phải trúng đích khá tốt. Tuy vậy ngay sau đó Hà Minh đã giữ khoảng cách và có đòn móc trái khiến Hoàng Long chuệch choạc tư thế.
