MAGALI TO FIGHT OLYMPIAN BOXER FOR WBA TITLE

*story courtesy Baguio Midland Courier

Benguet-based boxer Carlo Magali, the reigning Philippine Games and Amusement Board super featherweight champion, will challenge World Boxing Association Asia Charly Suarez at the Elorde Sports Complex in Parañque City on Oct. 23.

The 32-year-old Magali will again enter the ring after a two-year hiatus from boxing since capturing the Asian Boxing Federation and PGAB super featherweight belts against Al Toyogon in December 2019.

At the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, Magali along with fellow boxers under Highland Boxing of Igorot international boxing promoter Brico Santig, opted to stay in La Trinidad and had to look for ways to support their families, as sports promotions were prohibited.

Magali, whose boxing career has been revived by Highland Boxing, said he respects his opponent, who remains undefeated in his 12 professional bouts.

The 34-year-old Suarez of San Isidro, Davao del Norte, who represented the Philippines in the 2016 Rio Olympics, turned professional boxer in 2019, the year he captured the Philippines Mindanao Professional Boxing Federation lightweight belt.

A year later, he captured the Philippines Luzon ProBA super featherweight belt which he successfully defended against Filipino challengers.

Santig, who is actively promoting boxing events in the Middle East and other parts of Asia, travelled back to La Trinidad last week to check the training of Magali.

Magali captured the vacant Asian Boxing Federation super featherweight belt and the vacant Philippine super featherweight belt at the Manila Arena in 2019.

He clinched the belts via split decision victory against Al Toyogon in the main event of “Knockout” promoted by Santig and Darwin Miller Dep-ay of Highland Boxing and DMAD Promotions.

In June 2018, Magali failed to defend his Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation super featherweight belt to an undefeated Japanese boxer Hionori Mishiro via split decision in their 12-round championship bout in Japan. – Harley F. Palangchao

RODRIGO JOINS THE BATTLEFIELD

Perhaps one of the unluckiest boxers in recent months is high octane performer Jino Rodrigo. The "Silent Beast" has been the victim of multiple fight cancelations, including an international challenge in Kazakhstan. But Borat's loss is Philippines' gain, and the big news breaking today is that GAB has approved the late inclusion of Rodrigo at BATTLEFIELD UKC TIGER 2O22.

Jino Rodrigo takes on a previous opponent in Kelvin Tenorio, a fighter who he edged a points victory over back in 2018. Tenorio managed to survive onslaughts from top prospects like Jose Roda Jr and Carlo Bacaro, so this should be a really good clash.

And Jino is a MADMAN !

You will never see the Silent Beast in a boring fight - this is a guy that always tries to put the judges out of a job !

If there is a Knockout to be had, Jino Rodrigo is the man to deliver it, because he carries the sleeping pills in both hands !

RAKA MEETS YAP - A TALE OF TWO CITIES

Destined to be a barnburner and likely to steal all the thunder at BATTLEFIELD this October is the Junior Raka and Mark John Yap main undercard bout.

This has all the makings of a classic showdown in Parañaque Manila, yet oddly, neither fighter has local advantages.

Junior Raka hails from Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea. It's a country which is abundant in sporting talent, and where the interest in boxing is gaining momentum.

Mark John Yap is a son of Cagayan de Oro, in the southern Philippines island of Mindanao. This is arguably the most prolific location in the world for producing champion fighters - Charly Suarez and Manny Pacquiao being just two of the recent alma mater.

Mark John Yap is currently the Philippines #2 rated 130, and judging by what we saw recently against WBA champion Suarez, that looks accurate. Yap was simply outstanding despite defeat.

Junior Raka is really up against it, but that's the way he likes it. A quality amateur with plenty of firepower, the PNG Prodigy jumped at the chance to fight Yap at very short notice. Despite his recent inactivity,  expect the PNG banger to bring pressure, and lots of it!  He knows how to cut the ring, has nice timing, and can really find the target.

This is a fight deserving of main event status. Do not miss it !

MAGALI TOO EXPERIENCED FOR SUAREZ ?

*story courtesy of Daily Tribune

LA TRINIDAD, Benguet — Carlo Magali attempts to mess up the grand plans of Rio Olympics veteran Charly Suarez in his bid to win the World Boxing Association Asia super-featherweight title on 23 October at the Flash Grand Ballroom of the Elorde Sports Complex.

The Bohol-born Magali, who has been based here, enters the ring armed with a 25 win record with 13 knockouts.

Magali swears he holds a big edge in experience but that alone won’t be enough to beat Suarez, who has an undefeated record of 12 wins, including seven knockouts.

“But Suarez is also good so I have to be prepared,” Magali said.

A former Orient-Pacific Boxing Federation champion, Magali, 35, became a headliner many years ago when he fought in Australia.

Magali scored a 12th-round knockout of Davey Browne Jr. with 30 seconds remaining before the end of the fight.

Browne would spend a few days in hospital while in coma before dying owing to massive head injuries.

Suarez is handled by his former teammate in the national team, Delfin Boholst.

BATTLEFIELD - OPENING SESSION

Have a look at some of the cracking gunfights on this card to open for Suarez and Magali !

The unbeaten Weljon Mindoro matches up with the Highland's Gym resuming power puncher Jun Ibgos. Both these boys have crazy KO stats !

D'HAMMER is back in a big way. He looked rock solid against a quality Jufel Salina, and is looking to build on that performance against a really smart fighter in Ivor Lastrilla.

Jerald Into is rapidly improving young fighter,  and is potentially the best 135 in the land, but has he bitten off more than he can chew at this stage with a killer named Eduardo Mancito ? Love this fight, Mancito has fought the best (even Suarez ) and he did great. This is very definitely one of the best fights all day.

Every bout on this morning card is loaded with talent and FIREPOWER!

We will have a review on all these matches in coming weeks.

LAUREJAS TO STORM THE BATTLEFIELD

Former smart amateur Donald Laurejas makes a short turnaround when he takes on debutant Jess Mike Malaca this October in Parañaque.

Laurejas made a solid debut in August, getting a decision over a vastly improved Marlon Bacolando. He showed some nice touches in that fight, and looked excellent when he used his height and reach to advantage. It is fair to say that the more experienced Bacolando applied good pressure in that contest, and Laurejas will definitely improve significantly from that bout.

BATTLEFIELD UKC has some really promising young fighters on the card, and you can include Donald Laurejas in that group. He has sparred with some big names prior and subsequent to his debut, and has handled the pressure extremely well. Expect to see a vastly improved performance when this young man steps into the ring on October 23rd.

"PRODIGY" TO BATTLE MARK JOHN YAP

Papua New Guinea's best known fighter is headed to Manila, and has agreed to terms to face "the Journeyman" Mark John Yap at the BATTLEFIELD on October 23rd. Junior "the Prodigy" Raka is a former Arafura Games silver medallist, and has had 3 "official" professional bouts, winning 2 by way of Knockout. But the PNG banger has 7 fights which BoxRec failed to list - all wins, and all knockouts!

His only career loss was on points to the outstanding pinoy Roldan Aldea, in a WBA title match in early 2021. Mark John Yap looked outstanding in his recent WBA clash with Charly Suarez, and his effort left Junior Raka a fan:"It was a really great fight by Mark Yap, lots of clever boxing. I was really impressed. I realize this will be a very hard fight for me, as I am accepting the job at short notice.

But I am very confident in my ability, and I know I have the power to get his attention. Make no mistake, PNG fighters are proud warriors, and this will be a GREAT FIGHT!"

Junior Raka and Mark John Yap will be the main undercard bout to Suarez v Magali at

Charly Suarez to fight Carlo Magali on Oct 23 in Parañaque City

(Courtesy or WBN)

FORMER Olympian Charly Suarez makes another title defense of his World Boxing Association (WBA) Asia super featherweight title when he meets national champion Carlo Magali (25 wins) in Parañaque City on October 23.

Suarez is looking to remain unbeaten and continue his ascent in the super featherweight division and maintain a world title run. He’s currently ranked No. 36 in the super featherweight division by the World Boxing Council (WBC), in which the current titleholder is American star Shakur Stevenson.

The 34-year-old Suarez’s year has been very impressive. He started 2022 with a 12th round technical knockout of Tomjune Mangubat to win the vacant WBA Asia belt.

He followed up that win with a lopsided unanimous decision over Junny Salogaol in a tune-up last June. He then outclassed experienced Marjohn Yap by unanimous decision in his first WBA Asia title defense on Aug. 7.

Magali was supposed to fight in South Africa last Aug. 21 in an World Boxing Federation (WBF) lightweight title fight against Ayanda Nkosi but the fight was cancelled.

The rugged Magali has a reputation of scoring huge upsets. One of the biggest wins of his career was when he knocked out Davey Browne Jr. to win the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Pan Pacific super featherweight belt in Australia.

Unfortunately, Browne Jr. didn’t wake up from the knockout and died a few days later. Magali is also a former Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF).

He has also beaten the likes of Mark JohnYap (twice), Rey Perez, and Mark Gil Melligen. Magali was also impressive in his most recent performance, a dominant win over local lightweight star Al Toyogon.

Magali holds a record of 25 wins (13KO) and holds the pro experience edge over Suarez, who is unbeaten in 12 wins (7KO).

“We know we have lots of work to do to achieve our goals, and we are very grateful to get opportunities to fight good opponents for belts as we look to improve.” said the King’s Warrior Charly Suarez.

“Carlo Magali has been a big name in Philippines boxing for a long time, and he has also beaten some top guys that he wasn’t expected to beat. So, we don’t underestimate this boxer!

We are preparing for a war, as we expect that Magali will be trying for a brawl. He will be looking for the knockout. We will be smart, but are ready to fight fire with fire!”

Charly Suarez and Carlo Magali will be fighting for both the RP national and WBA Asia Championship belts.

Suarez is leaving nothing to chance in his world rankings surge, yet Magali has a style that has previously thwarted the plans of many more heavily favoured opponents.

DON'T "SLEEP" ON MANCITO

Eduardo “the Nightmare” Mancito steps onto the BATTLEFIELD this October, and will face up to unbeaten lightweight prospect Jerald Into.

"The Nightmare" is far and away the most experienced opponent that Into has faced so far.

The 29 year old Mancito has fought against many of the division’s best, including bouts in countries like Mexico, Thailand and Japan.

As a boxer with 18 wins on his resume, The Nightmare brings valuable knowledge to the ring, and his no nonsense style have yielded him 9 KOs. His gritty toughness is also undeniable, having only been stopped twice in his career, both instances being at the hands of foreign opponents with outstanding records.

Eduardo Mancito has that enviable “warrior’s blood” He loves to fight, to challenge himself, and he ducks NOBODY! His last 3 losses are deceptive - they were at the hands of unbeaten boxers Charly Suarez and Jadier Hererra, and a very narrow defeat at the hands of once beaten Jose Roda Jr.

But tear up the form guides, Jerald Into represents a totally new challenge, and rest assured, Eduardo Mancito will be looking to turn this into a "Nightmare" experience for the unbeaten southpaw.

CAN TOUGH MAGALI SPOIL THE PARTY?

FORMER Olympian Charly Suarez makes another title defense of his World Boxing Association (WBA) Asia featherweight title, this time, against tough journeyman Carlo Magali on Oct. 23 at The Flash Grand Ballroom of the Elorde Sports Complex in Parañaque City.

Suarez is looking to remain unbeaten and continue his ascent in the super featherweight division in the hopes of a world title run. He’s currently ranked No. 36 in the super featherweight division by the World Boxing Council (WBC), in which the current titleholder is American star Shakur Stevenson.

Magali was supposed to fight in South Africa last Aug. 21 in an World Boxing Federation (WBF) lightweight title fight against Ayanda Nkosi but the fight was cancelled.

The 35-year-old Magali has a reputation of scoring huge upsets. One of the biggest wins of his career was when he knocked out Davey Browne Jr. to win the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Pan Pacific super featherweight belt in Australia. Unfortunately, Browne Jr. didn’t wake up from the knockout and died a few days later. Magali is also a former Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF).

He has also beaten the likes of Yap, twice, and Mark Gil Melligen and, just two years ago, Al Toyogon.

Suarez is 12-0 with seven knockouts, while Magali is 25-13-3 with 13 knockouts.

Also seeing action in the same card are unbeaten prospects Weljon Mindoro (8-0, 8 KOs) and Ali Canega (6-0-1, 4 KOs), and Claudevan Sese (7-3-3, 1 KO).

Team Suarez says the work never stops, and whilst they have lofty world title ambitions, their immediate focus is October 23rd in Parañaque City.

YAP IS BACK !

Mark John Yap put on an outstanding display recently in Manila when he took on Charly Suarez for the WBA title. In what was a very cerebral and high volume contest, Yap constantly asked questions of the champion for the full 12 rounds. His ability to read shots, and switch his own attacks between subtlety and power, was not lost on an appreciative crowd. It was often remarked around the room that with some of his body assaults, if not for a special opponent like Suarez, then Yap would have definitely scored a stoppage victory.

And so onto the big news - YAP IS BACK !

VSP Promotions were very fortunate to secure The Journeyman, who was originally intended to fight in Japan this October. That match fell through and we were quick to contact the CDO star (a former triple OPBF champ)

Japan's loss is Philippines gain !

VSP have a huge opinion of this outstanding boxer !

He is without doubt one of the most technical and skilled boxers in the Philippines, and has years of high level international experience that have crafted his game.

SUAREZ + MAGALI = PUNCHAMANIA !

Charly Suarez and Carlo Magali are both known for blazing hands and massive punch counts, so expect a fistic smorgasbord of full on attack when these two fighters meet on October 23rd.

Magali makes his eagerly awaited return after an unfortunate run of fight cancelations.

When we last saw "The Ferocious", he was simply outstanding, besting a very good young fighter by the name of Al Toyogan (who has looked unbeatable since!)

It also should be remembered that just prior to his Toyogan match, Carlo Magali was slated to fight unbeaten Miguel Berchelt for the world title, a fight that was widely acknowledged as the toughest test yet encountered for the formidable title holder.

Carlo Magali is the current Philippines national champion, and in true champion spirit, will put that title on the line when he faces Suarez. Likewise, the King's Warrior will offer up his WBA belt for the October 23rd match at Elorde Sports Centre Paranaque.

The unbeaten Suarez has been in outstanding touch, and is certainly lucky to have a swathe of quality opponents and sparring partners around his weight class.

His most recent win against a very savvy Mark John Yap will give you a taste of what to expect this October.

BEWARE THE TRIGGERMAN !

Expect all guns blazing on October 23rd, when youthful "power prodigy" Weljon Mindoro is expected to make his appearance on the main undercard of Suarez v Magali.

Mindoro is a member of a very talented squad trained out of Quibors Boxing Gym in Cavite, and his inclusion to the Charly Suarez card is surely going to add huge interest to the Parañaque show.

The man known as "Triggerman" is unbeaten in 8 bouts, and quite incredibly, has completed his work assignments all within the distance !

Mindoro is also unique in the fact that he is a larger size boxer than what is typically seen in the Philippines, contesting the Middleweight category (70kg).

As you can see from his picture with national team star Eumir Marcial, TRIGGERMAN is no shrinking violet. And at the age of just 22, he may very well still be growing !

SUAREZ ALREADY BACK IN THE OFFICE

The King's Warrior is on a short turn around, and will face up to Philippines' national champ Carlo Magali in Parañaque on October 23.Suarez was originally slated to fight a foreign opponent in Danang, but the October 29 date made a planned December match unworkable.

The VSP boxer is enthusiastic about the task ahead :"Yes, we had planned to fight India's number one boxer in Danang, but the date was a little too late for our schedule.We are very fortunate to be able to get to match a top professional like Carlo, he has been one of the big names in boxing for many years. I like the challenge because Carlo Magali always brings a great fight!"Magali was recently preparing for a big match in South Africa that was canceled. The Bohol bred fighter quickly jumped at the opportunity to test himself with the WBA champion Suarez. Magali is the current national champion, and when last in the ring, defeated the highly promising Al Toyogan.

The match between Charly Suarez and Carlo Magali will be the main event of another big card at Elorde Sports Centre on Sunday October 23rd. The combatants will be competing for WBA Asia and RP title honours in what will be an action packed bout.

THE FEROOCIOUS TO FIGHT SUAREZ

Carlo Magali has signed to fight Charly Suarez in October in Manila.

"The Ferocious" was slated to fight in South Africa, but when that fight failed to materialise, was quick to challenge the unbeaten Suarez.

Magali is a last start victor over powerful prospect Al Toyogan, and he also has two wins to his credit over Mark John Yap on his excellent resume. Yap is a multiple OPBF champ, and the most recent in a string of excellent local opponents for former Olympian Suarez.

The match which is proposed for October 23rd, will see Charly Suarez will defend his WBA title, and in a confident gesture, Carlo Magali will put his national RP belt on the line.

This is an exciting time for Philippines boxing where the fighters are embracing the opportunity for best to face best!

VIETNAM TRIO MAKING WAVES IN TAIWAN

There is little doubt that Vietnam have made significant progress in the professional fight sport in recent times - both in the sign up of new boxers, and also, the vastly elevated standards of referees and judges. This is in no small part attributed to the existence of Vietnam Boxing Organization, who now enable pro bouts to be properly regulated and internationally accredited.
Testament to the hard work of all, 3 🇻🇳 Viets will be rewarded with a trip to Taiwan on December 16th to take part in an event there.
16 year old prospect Dinh Minh Tuan and Cocky Buffalo's Pham Huu Thuong will compete in 4 round bouts, and both have excellent chances, being recent winners at VSP PRO. 

Nguyen Nhu Duong (VBO Official) has been an impressive performer this year in the role of officiating bouts, and will create some history by lending his skills to the Taiwan event.
The inclusion of the Vietnam 🇻🇳 boxers was made possible by VSP Promotions, who are looking forward to providing lots of international opportunities to local performers in 2024.
The Taiwan show will be supervised by PBC, in collaboration with the Vietnam Boxing Organization.

NGUYỄN VĂN HẢI IS TOP OF THE CHARTS !

It's no secret that Vietnam has plenty of boxing talent, and the industry's record keeper BoxRec has a unique algorithm that ranks boxers overall and in their respective weight classes.
BoxRec also compute a pound for pound list, and whilst these always open for intetesting debate, here is their latest compilation for Vietnam. 
And there are some great names in that list - most especially Nguyễn Văn Hải, the King Truong Dinh Hoang and Vietnam's best known pro "Trigger" Tran Van Thao.
Congratulations to all of the Vietnam boxers that have worked so hard to make it onto the professional stage, and to BoxRec for publishing their achievements. 
Vietnam 🇻🇳 now has more than 100 accredited professional boxers - AND GROWING !!!!!

NGAKA: "I WANNA COME BACK TO VIETNAM!"

VSP PRO 11 will have INTERNATIONAL flavour !

Botswana boxer Moabi Ngaka made history recently as the first African to fight in Vietnam. 
And the boy revered as "the Eagle" had such a great time Ho Chi Minh City, that he says he wants to come back - ASAP !

"I really enjoyed the opportunity to get back into the ring again, and the Ho Tram show was like nothing I had previously experienced. And being the first African boxer, it made it very exciting. But the most memorable for me and my coach Simba was how friendly the Vietnam people are, and how much love they showed us. It will stay with me for my whole life".
"I heard that VSP are doing a show on December 23rd - and I want in ! 
I will be fighting in Korea in January, so it will be perfect preparation for me. I know Vietnam has some killers, so I like that vibe too - the Eagle is willing to fight anyone !!"
Moabi Ngaka is a confirmed starter for VSP PRO 11 on December 23rd, as is popular local boxer Thai Hoang Huy (pictured) who was the recent opponent of the Eagle at The Grand Ho Tram. 

Updates on VSP PRO 11 coming soon.

GANOZA READY TO FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE 🔥

It's almost GO TIME for another great Dragon Fire show in Perth, and main event boxers Alex Winwood and Cris Ganoza looked pumped and ready at today's weigh-in. 
Star Aussie Alex Winwood checked in at 48.35 kg, whilst Ganoza tipped the scales at 47.75kg.
This is the first time in Australia for the Philippines boxer Cris Ganoza, and the veteran of 20 wins was certainly not daunted by his impending task judging by the face off.
Alex Winwood is a prodigious young talent, but his lack of pro experience will be put to the test in tomorrow night's huge bout. 
The match is expected to be very offensive, and the pinoy Ganoza has promised to return any favours with interest !
Young dragons are ready to breathe fire 🔥 !!

ELORDE STAR IN THE LAND DOWN UNDER

Big things coming this Friday night in Perth Australia, when Cris Ganoza takes on hot Aussie prospect Alex Winwood.
Despite a career record of 20 wins, the southpaw Ganoza is ranked #74 in the world, whilst Winwood with only 3 wins, is ranked #11.
Be in no doubt, Alex Winwood has huge potential, and is being fast tracked towards a world title. 
But the Philippines' Cris Ganoza is definitely no speed hump, and he represents easily the toughest test in the Aussie boxer's short professional career.

The event has been put together by top local promoter Mr. Sang Bum Kim of Cocky Buffalo Promotions, and will take place at the prestigious Grand Ho Tram Resort and Casino. 
Moabi Ngaka is pictured this morning at VSP Gym with trainer and former national team boxer Thabang Motsewabeng.

"TRIGGER" THAO GETS A MEXICAN GUN FIGHT

When you're talking boxing, you're talking tough and Mexican in the same breath !

So Vietnam's Tran Van Thao aka "the Trigger", despite a ring absence of more than a year, wasn't looking for anything easy when he chose Mexican Kenbun Torres as his opponent.

As you can see, both boys were SHREDDED and turned up in DEMON shape at the weigh-in, and this fight lived up to all the hype.

Great job boys !

Tran Van Thao will be back in the ring in January, on a huge card that will include Genesis Servania and another top

LAURENTE FOR WBC TITLE IN CHINA

Elorde boxer Jonniel Laurente looked in great shape for tomorrow's big WBC Asia Continental bout in Chongqing China.
.
Laurente (pictured at the weigh in moments ago) takes on Wensong Liu 10-2 at Yubei Stadium for the vacant title.
But Jonniel Laurente, who recently returned from a sparring stint in Japan, is a real "live dog" in his title bid, possessing the great career stats of 8-0.
That said, tomorrow's title bout will defintely prove to be the Philippines' boxer's toughest test to date.

WHAT MAKES IT PROFESSIONAL BOXING?

I have been asked this question many times and you will be surprised to find that most people (even folks from the Boxing industry) don't really understand it.  

There is the technical definition between the two sports such as differences in the rules but that is a very shallow and limited understanding of the sport.

Fundamentally, amateur sports focus on finding the best athletes to represent the city, province, and finally the nation at various international tournaments for the glory of the country the athletes represent.  This is a very important role which national Federations plays.  The Federation can decide whatever it sees fit to devise local tournament rules and determine winners based on it's own standards since they are the sole power in the amateur sport they represent in that country. International community has no saying in the process of selecting top athletes to represent the country by each Federations but share same rules when competing in international tournaments such as ASIAD, OLYMPICS, SEA GAMES etc.

Professional sports however has a very different goal.  It is all about commercial benefits to the organizer and the athletes participating in the event.  It has no interest in finding the best boxer but rather focuses on what organizers can "sell" to the public and sponsors to watch.  There are no international tournaments such as SEA Games, Asian Games, or the Olympics. In professional boxing, all matches are one single event and there is no medals or 2nd place award.  There is simply a winner and a looser.  

Professional Boxing is based on a global ranking system to determine if one boxer is "better" than another, and this has a big impact on the money that athletes can demand from the organizer for participating in an event. (Generally, if a fighter have had more fights in the past with many wins, they can demand more money because more people would likely know the boxer and thus it is easier for the organizer to market the event.)  In this regard, the international community had to agree in using a common database that records such ranking.  One of such platforms where you can find combat history of athletes is called BoxRec.  It is a private website that has managed to invest in collecting most fight results around the world which is used as the first place to look when researching about a boxer.  

Because of the global ranking, a boxing match cannot be called  professional boxing simply because it applied professional rules.  It also cannot be called as professional boxing by a national Federation or even by a government alone.  For a boxing match to be accepted as "professional boxing", it must be recognized by international organizations as meeting certain standards, procedures, and paperwork. Otherwise, you can have any organizations claiming to have "local authority" to declare results of boxing matches that may not be fair and transparent. The professional boxing community has fought off countless attempts by various organizations claiming have "authority" to try and insert the results of matches that do not meet required standards.

Now who are these "international organizations" in professional boxing?  

Most people think they are WBO, WBC, IBF, WBA.  Many also wrongly think that above organizations are equivalent to IOC or FIFA but they are not.  They are all private organizations that have been successful at marketing their brands around the world.  There are over 65 of such companies but WBO, WBA, IBF, WBA are the biggest.  Each of them have their own rules and criteria as to who can fight for their belt.  They make money from the organizer (called "promoter" in boxing) who arranges events involving their brand.  In any boxing event, they work with the organizer to witness and manage the fight involving their brand only.  

Commissions are organizations that understand the requirements of being accepted as a "professional boxing" and act as an auditor to "supervise" a boxing event which are non-title fights.  Almost all professional boxing commissions in the world are private organizations except for USA and the Philippines.  Even in those countries, amateur boxing is separately managed from professional boxing since mixing amateur and professional sports often lead to corruption.  

Commissions have commercial agreements with other commissions after ensuring that they are mutually satisfied with the quality and the integrity of the supervision (audit) of a boxing match which may involve boxers under their management.  Each country can have multiple commissions. Korea has over 5 professional boxing commissions.  Japan had 2 commissions at one time but now has one private commission.  As long as a boxing match meets a certain criteria, the international community will accept it as being a "professional boxing match" and record the result.  

In Vietnam, only VBO is accepted as having met international standard by other private commissions in Japan, China, Korea, Philippines and also Boxrec.  This does not mean VBO is the licensing authority for a boxing event nor an exclusive organization for boxing in Vietnam. VBO works with any promoters who is licensed by the government to organize a boxing event to provide consultancy, audit, and boxing management to meet a certain standards that are recognized by boxing organizations which VBO has commercial agreements with.  Only then, the boxing match is recognized as being a "Professional Boxing" match by the the international community.  

It is important  to note that if a boxing match is supervised by an organization or even government that the international community does not recognize as having a certain knowledge and standard, it will not be recorded as Professional Boxing no matter what the local organization claim it to be.  

Recently, Vietnam Boxing Federation (VBF) has been trying to disrupt legally licensed boxing events claiming to be the sole authority to approve professional boxing in Vietnam.  It is important to note that they have charged promoters in the past over USD 10,000 dollars for "sanctioning fee" and demanded various perks such as free rooms and flight tickets for their guests. They used amateur scoring system and ultimately had no recognition by international community involved in professional boxing.  For these reasons and many more, all the professional boxing events they supervised in the past were not recognized by major commissions and boxing organizations such as BoxRec.  In contrast, VBO provides its services for free to all promoters as a sponsorship.  

Another reason why VBF is rejected by the professional boxing community is because some senior executives of VBF are also gym owners, managers of boxers, and also a promoter that competes with other organizers of professional boxing in the market.  Clear conflict of interest is one thing but they haved used their authority to send various government departments to intimidate and try to disrupt boxing events by all other organizers.  

So far, VBF has yet to supervise one single professional boxing event listed on BoxRec.  In 2023, there were 2 events done by SSC.  The owner of SSC is also the Vice President of HBF and President of VBF.  The promoter of the event, Shadow Entertainment, is partly owned by the President of VBF.  

Rather than just repeating an empty slogan that VBF is the sole authority, it is important for them to first act as a responsible organization by establishing a clear rules of professional boxing for Vietnam, and also establish working agreements with various professional organizations around the world so their supervision of a professional boxing match is accepted as credible and transparent.  

In comparison, VBO does not have any boxers under contractual management and certianly don't charge any fees of any kind to boxers.  It has sponsored over 13 events in 2023 with combination of free services to organizers, gloves, hand wraps, seminars, fighter purses, flight tickets, hotel, and meals.  The result is that VBO has produced over 80% of new professional boxers in Vietnam including 100% of all female boxers.   With over 2bil VND in sponsorship, it is unlikely VBO is out to collect money from boxers they are paying and supporting in the first place as claimed by VBF.

VBO does not have any form of agreements with WBA, WBO, IBF, WBC or any other such organizations.  Those are commercial arrangements with the organizer/promoters.

"Sanctioning" is not a legal word.  It means following a certain standards for a match to be recognized by the Sanctioning organization.  For WBO title fights, WBO will be the Sanctioning organization for their brand and VBO does not get involved in that.

Function of a commission is to protect safety and welfare of boxers rather than showcasing their authority or titles guven by higher powers.  It is important that any organization claiming to be the authority first demonstrate their capability before asking for the acceptance of their competence.

ANOTHER STEP FORWARD FOR VIETNAM!

During the WBO Global event at the Grand Ho Tram, another historic event took place.  Vietnam Boxing Organization signed a cooperation agreement with Korea Boxing Federation (KBF).  The agreement focuses around the technology transfer of professional boxing management system developed by VBO.  

Chairman Lee of KBF said "History of professional boxing in Korea is over 80 years but VBO from Vietnam has managed to develop a system that is far better than what is being used in Korea. I have never seen such an advanced system for boxing like the one developed by VBO."  

The system developed by VBO streamlines documentation process required in supervising a fight by more than 98%, saving countless hours by a commission using the system.  What usually takes days to prepare can be done in less than an hour.

NOTE:  Unlike in Vietnam, most of the countries around the world allows private organizations to use "Federation", "Association", or "Commission" in their names.  KBF is a private organization as are most professional boxing commissions around the world.

LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE !!!

The Grand Ho Tram Resort and Casino will be the focal point of the best fight action Asia has to offer this Saturday night.

The headline event is the WBO Global bout between China's Zhu Dianxing and Thailand's Yotboon Sanchai over 12 rounds.

The China star was recently in Vietnam, where he totally dismantled top local Sam Minh Phát, and took his superb record to 10 wins with only one loss.

The main undercard bout is of huge interest to Vietnam fans, as it marks the return of "Trigger" Tran Van Thao to the squared circle.

Thao is Vietnam's best performed professional, winning 15 of his 16 bouts to date, and he looks to make his first match in over a year a memorable one. Trigger takes on tough Mexican Kenbun Torres, and when we say that, we are recommending that TOUGH and MEXICAN be made into one word ! Torres is dangerous too - in his 12 wins, 9 have tasted the canvas.

The other bout of note for Vietnam is the match between fledgling boxer Thai Hoang Huy and Botswana talent Moabi Ngaka (pictured).

Former Muay Thai student Huy turned to boxing only this year, yet has already picked up 4 wins and  scored  2 knockouts for the highlight reel.

African visitor Moabi Ngaka is known as "The Eagle" and at first glance, it's easy to see why. Ngaka is very tall and rangy, and likes to attack his prey from range.

This Botswana boxer has won two gold medals in national youth championships before turning pro, so he will have the experience edge over his very willing Vietnam opponent, but this has the makings of a really interesting fight.

"Ho Tram RUMBLE" will boast 6 great fights, with the action getting underway around 6.30pm.

MOABI NGAKA TO MAKE HISTORY IN VIETNAM

Botswana boxer Moabi "the Eagle" Ngaka touches down in Ho Chi Minh City next week, and aside from blazing hands, brings something for the record books with him.

Ngaka will appear at a top quality international show to be held at The Grand Ho Tram Resort next Saturday night, and in doing so, will be the first African pro boxer to fight in Vietnam.

The Eagle will take on local prospect Thai Hoang Huy, a boxer who has been rewarded for his escalating performances in the VSP PRO series, where he attained a 4-1 record.

His lone loss was a debated split decision, so Huy could easily be 5-0 in the stats.

But the Botswana visitor represents a big jump in class for the HCMC based prospect.

Moabi Ngaka has had over 60 amateur fights, winning 3 gold in national youth, and silver and bronze at senior level.

His pro record is 4-1, and last year, he won the WBF  super bantamweight title in a fantastic 12 rounds display over the incumbent champion.

The fight next week in Vung Tau is a "MUST WIN" for the African boxer, who has been promised a title shot in Maun Botswana on December 15th if he is successful against Thai Hoang Huy.

Ngaka has been out of the ring for almost a year now, and only time will tell if that will play any part in his performance against a less experienced but feisty Vietnam fighter.

TRƯƠNG HẢI BIỀN HOLDING ALL THE ACES

When you have got height, reach, youth and good looks - what else do you really need ??

17 year old Binh Duong Boxing Team prospect Truong Hai Bien returns to VSP PRO, only two months since he debuted against Nguyễn Khắc Dũng. Bien dropped a points decision to his Hanoi opponent, but it was very obvious he has a mile of improvement, and his team were keen to get him back into the ring as soon as possible.

Bien at 173cm has nice height for the super lightweight class, and if he can learn to create angles a little more, will be able to have more success fighting on the outside than he did at his debut. But despite his inexperience, he certainly has the makings of a good boxer.

Nguyễn Khắc Dũng brought lots of pressure in the August bout, and next Saturday night, Lê Nguyễn Hoàng Long brings pressure in spades !

But for sure, height, reach, youth and good looks will all combine on the night and we will see a vastly improved Truong Hai Bien at VSP Gym next Saturday.

This event is made possible by the sanctioning of the Vietnam Boxing Organization, who are the regulator of professional boxing in Vietnam.
