He is Young, Tall, Fast and “Infamous”. Thomas was a wild card entry to Victory 8 "Legends of Hoan Kiem". Only 19 years of age, he’s a tall athletic fighter that has been training in the United States. He has had good amateur experience and trained with and fought a wide range of styles. Thomas has fast hands and decent power, and his appetite to learn and compete at the highest level will see him acquit himself in the pro ranks. He is a dangerous weapon as he boxes at range really well, but is also adept at making life hard for his opponent if they try to bring the fight inside.

LE HOANG HIỆP A CROWD PLEASER AT VSP PRO

HCMC boxer HIỆP,  better known as "BABY KONG " scored his debut win at VSP PRO 4 on Saturday night. It was his best performance so far, showing an improved work rate, and selecting a variety of shots on the inside that really impressed the crowd. Hiệp was especially successful with the uppercut, and he kept changing angle to keep his very strong opponent guessing.

Great fight, and looking forward to seeing more of Lê Hoàng Hiệp, and his rival Nguyễn Huỳnh Phúc Tiến, in future VSP PRO events.

MARK JOHN YAP STUNS IN VIETNAM WIN
May 28, 2023

MARK JOHN YAP STUNS IN VIETNAM WIN

Mindanao's Mark John Yap wound back the clock in Ho Chi Minh City tonight, with a brutal display over national team prospect Nguyễn Hà Minh.

Yap was returning from a couple of months break from the sport, celebrating the birth of his first daughter Yuri early this year. It was noted at the weigh-in for the Lightweight 61kg clash, that Yap looked a little soft next to his taller and ripped Vietnam opponent.

The Journey Man was given a warm reception by the crowd, who were divided as to how a pro veteran would match up with the slick Vietnam boxer in a highly paced 4 round format.

Nguyễn Hà Minh is only 20 years of age, but is a highly touted member of the Vietnam team,

He is tall, and boxes with beautiful range, has fast hands, and he seamlessly angles between stances to land counters with ridiculous ease.

The first two rounds were arguably won by the local star. The Philippines Yap pressed constantly, but his timing and distance were a little off, and Minh often punished his enterprise with counters.

Despite being outlanded, Yap was undeterred, and always looked significantly dangerous.

Cracks started to appear in the armour of the Vietnam star in the third, as Yap began to find his range, and the momentum shifted noticeably. The Journey Man was walking through Minh's efforts with impunity, and was really chopping his rival to the body. Yap was relentless, and went "old school" brutal in the final round, where he dropped his Vietnam opponent with sadistic attacks to the torso. Nguyễn Hà Minh stoicism saw him meet the final bell, yet had it been a longer bout, the stoppage was perilously near.

Mark John Yap was simply devastating tonight, and produced such a dominant performance on foreign soil, that he was hailed as the winner by unanimous decision.

It was a credible showing by hot national team member Nguyễn Hà Minh, and he acknowledged that Yap's strength and experience overwhelmed him in the home stretch. He will benefit a lot from his encounter with a hardened professional.

But the big news is - YAP IS BACK  !  

The evergreen killer from Cagayan de Oro will return to the ring in a big, soon to be announced fight, this coming July.

Pablito Canada and JonJon Estrada make great fights, and Saturday's was no different.

Minus the little kerfuffle near the end, where both boys were getting frustrated, and it was a really good contest with plenty of to and fro.

JonJon Estrada is known for his power, and although he showed more patience than usual in the longer duration 10 round bout, he still found time for some signature Wolverine moves.

Two great young prospects lock horns tomorrow in what is sure to be one of the fights of the night.

Le Hoàng Hiệp has been compared to a mini Mike Tyson, and has vowed to put on a dominant display at VSP PRO.

But things might not go so smoothly for the former Russian mob member, as his opponent Nguyễn Huỳnh Phúc Tiến looked in crazy shape at today's face off. This rangy HCMC boxer has been earmarked as one of the big impovers in the local ranks.

YAP CUT FROM DIFFERENT CLOTH

Cagayan de Oro star Mark John Yap has seen just about everything in a professional career dating back to 2007.

The career traverses 16 years, multiple weight classes and countries, and 32 wins that include many prestigious regional honors such as 3 OPBF straps.

But what has characterized Yap, and remains omnipresent, is that the guy is at the core, a surgical serial killer.

He knows how to inflict damage - and he excels at the task !

Mark John Yap ventures to Ho Chi Minh City next Saturday, where he takes on Vietnam national team star Nguyễn Ha Minh.

Minh is a heavier weight class boxer, but you can be sure, this will make precious little difference to Yap.

Brutality is his game !

BACONAJE DOMINANT IN RP NATIONAL TITLE
May 13, 2023

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.

Because Joseph Ambo of the Philippines and Dayan Gonzalez of Cuba made weight today for tomorrow night's scheduled battle in Dubai.

The Scorpion looked fantastic at the face off, and even though it is his first hitout at featherweight,  the tall boxer looks really suited to 126lb.

And he will need to be !

The Cuban Gonzalez is a real gun, having won all of his 9 fights thus far - 7 by way of stunning knockout  !

THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING

THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING

Philippines boxers Jhon Gemino and Arnel Baconaje are regarded as two of the country's best super featherweights in recent years.

Despite the pandemic, both fighters found ways to stay busy and hone their craft, forging paths that lead to the same destination of the Okada Casino in Manila this Saturday.

In a dream match up that has often been debated, yet never seeming likely, these two will finally share the ring and contest the Philippines national title.

Jhon Gemino is a dynamo to say the very least, and prior to the pandemic, could rightfully lay claim to be one of the Philippines most dangerous operators.

Arnel Baconaje has devoted his life to the sport of boxing since showing precocious talent as a kid in Iloilo, and the Elorde Southbox star has always known that title fights were written into his destiny.

"The Silencer" has fallen prey to some very ordinary judges' performances at his last two appearances, but is unperturbed.

This is a white hot match up between two of the Philippines most lethal punchers, but there is a strong suspicion that for Baconaje, he is really coming into his own as a fighter.

But if you are a  believer in destiny, then surely Arnel Baconaje will be crowned Philippines KING this Saturday night !!

"TRIGGERMAN" GOT INOUE IN HIS SIGHTS

"TRIGGERMAN" GOT INOUE IN HIS SIGHTS

Quibors Gym prodigy Weljon Mindoro takes a gigantic leap in his fledgling career when he takes on Japan's Takeshi Inoue this Saturday.

The Philippines boxer has not put a foot wrong so far, winning all 10 of his bouts, and incredibly, all by knockout !

But Takeshi Inoue boasts perhaps the best chin in the division, having endured all that unbeaten stars  Jaime Munguia and Tim Tszyu could throw ar him, and returning with bombs of his own.

This is very definitely a different task that the Triggerman has faced previously,  and he will need to show great boxing skills rather than power to pull the victory this Saturday night at Okada.

NHANH NHƯ MỘT CƠN GIÓ

Là võ sĩ đầu tiên của đội tuyển Boxing Việt Nam ra sân thi đấu trong ngày 8/5, Nguyễn Linh Phụng đã "giải hạn" bằng chiến thắng nhanh chóng ngay hiệp đầu tiên.

Phải chạm trán võ sĩ chủ nhà cùng tiếng cổ vũ náo nhiệt từ hàng trăm người có mặt tại nhà thi đấu, nhưng Linh Phụng không hề bị khớp về mặt tâm lý. Anh nhanh chóng tràn lên tấn công, dồn đối thủ vào thế bí.

Sau vài giây đầu thăm dò, Linh Phụng mất chưa đến 1 phút để khiến đối thủ bị choáng, phải đếm ngay hiệp 1. Phút tiếp theo là những màn tấn công nhanh như gió của võ sĩ 10X.

Thế công của Linh Phụng khiến trọng tài sớm quyết định dừng trận đấu sau khi đếm lần 2 và 3. Với chiến thắng của Linh Phụng, Boxing Việt Nam như cởi bỏ được áp lực để hướng đến những trận tiếp theo.

Linh Phụng sinh năm 2000, là võ sĩ của đoàn Boxing Quân Đội. Từ khi lên thi đấu ở lứa tuổi trưởng thành, anh sớm nắm giữ ngôi vương ở hạng cân 48kg, và thường xuyên lên đội tuyển quốc gia thi đấu quốc tế.

Yes - they were that good !!!

Already there has been three cracking fights (we have recently been advised) between The Wolverine JonJon Estrada and Pablito Canada, so good in fact that they will meet again to settle the score.

The first two were atomic bombs, where Canada went all out and looked certain to KO Estrada, only to have the tables turned and end up on the canvas.

The most recent instalment was a strategic yet brutal battle, with the Wolverine punching himself to a standstill and earning a narrow points victory over a physically imposing Canada.

Now it's time for ESTRADA CANADA #4 !!!!This will surely turn into a franchise !

Võ sỹ Olympic Nguyễn Văn Đương vừa bị trọng tài xử thua

Võ sỹ Olympic Nguyễn Văn Đương vừa bị trọng tài xử thua tại hiệp 3 trận đấu hạng 57 kg môn boxing SEA Games 32 và đội tuyển boxing Việt Nam đã phản ứng gay gắt với quyết định này.

Hiệp 1 chứng kiến sự máu lửa của Bautista khi anh liên tục dồn ép Văn Đương vào ring đài và tấn công đa dạng từ đấm móc sườn cho đến những đòn tầm cao. Trong khi đó Văn Đương đáp trả bằng những đòn đấm móc phải tay khá tốt.

Ở hiệp đấu kế tiếp hai võ sỹ tích cực tấn công nhiều hơn. Văn Đương chủ động ra đòn tầm xa nhằm hạn chế đối thủ áp sát tung đấm cực nặng. Còn Bautista có những đòn jab, đấm móc trúng đích khá tốt.

Kịch tính được đẩy lên ở hiệp đấu cuối khi ngay đầu hiệp trọng tài cho dừng trận đấu để bác sỹ kiểm tra "chấn thương vùng mi mắt trái" của Văn Đương. Sau đó trận đấu tiếp diễn, nhưng chỉ hơn 1 phút sau trọng tài lại yêu cầu bác sỹ kiểm tra vết thương của Văn Đương.

Lần này, bác sỹ ra dấu "VĐV không thể tiếp tục" và trọng tài cho dừng trận đấu, tuyên thắng knock-out kỹ thuật (RSC) cho tay đấm Philippines, trước sự ngỡ ngàng của Văn Đương và BHL đội tuyển boxing Việt Nam.

Tại thời điểm này, theo tìm hiểu của Webthethao, bảng điểm chung cuộc cho thấy Văn Đương đang tạm dẫn. Và nếu diễn biến vẫn giống như 2 hiệp đầu thì chiến thắng gần như chắc chắn sẽ thuộc về tay đấm của Việt Nam.

Nhưng rốt cuộc tuyên bố từ trọng tài không thể đảo chiều. Ngay trên đài, BHL ĐT boxing Việt Nam đã tỏ rõ sự thất vọng và phản ánh với trọng tài cũng như bộ phận y tế rằng "vết thương ở mí mắt của Văn Đương không hề nguy hiểm và cũng không ảnh hưởng gì tới võ sỹ này cũng như trận đấu".

Sự bức xúc tiếp tục diễn ra sau khi trận đấu kết thúc khi ĐT boxing Việt Nam tiếp phản ứng với tổ y tế, giám sát, BTC, khi đưa Nguyễn Văn Đương lại chứng minh tay đấm này "không bị chấn thương nghiêm trọng đến mức phải dừng trận đấu". Tuy nhiên, sự vụ không được giải quyết rốt ráo.
