NGAKA TAUNTS MARK YAP TO GO TO WAR

Botswana’s Moabi "The Eagle" Ngaka " is a man well versed with the habitat of lions, and he will need to draw on all that hometown knowledge on March 30th when he steps into the ring with the Philippines' Mark John Yap.

The two boxers will contest the World Boxing Foundation International title - a main event contest over 10 rounds to decide the Super Featherweight champion.

And the task for Ngaka is daunting to say the least !

Despite being a talented member of the national team in Botswana, he has literally had to jump at the very limited pro opportunities that have come his way, amassing a 3-1 record. And if you include his bouts not listed in BoxRec, he is already 7-1.

There is no doubt that Moabi Ngaka has the makings of quality international boxer.

But against Mark John Yap - REALLY ?

It's just impossible to see that he has the experience to go with a man that has 17 years in the pro ranks, had an unbeaten run of 10 wins in Japan over 3 years where he tore some of their very best to shreds. Yap picked up three OPBF titles in a winning run that was finally ended in a points loss to world rated #2 Takuma Inoue.

But here's the interesting footnote - Moabi Ngaka specifically asked for the task ! There were a number of easier opponents that the African boxer could have taken, but he chose the Philippines Journey Man instead.

"I want Mark John Yap !! He is a warrior, so am I - so lets GO TO WAR !

I'm not here to play around, I train hard, and I fight harder. I want to test myself with real fighters, and they don't come any more real than Yap."

Those close to the Botswana boxer share his belief, and say he is ripe to pull off a big upset against his Philippines rival. Ngaka is renowned for his cardio and loose movement in the ring, and they are of the opinion that Yap will be air swinging on old legs in later rounds.

"I want everyone to tune in on March 30th - I will say that this will be a war, and I will drop Mark Yap. Maybe more than once. They will all be saying that the EAGLE HAS LANDED."

"MARK YAP WILL DROP. THIS IS WAR !"

The main event boxer that will face the Philippines' Mark John Yap has made the bold prediction that he will drop his counterpart at least once in next month's headliner.

This is a view that's endorsed by many in Africa that think Yap will age overnight, and that he doesn't have the speed or legs to go with his younger opponent.

"Africa is different man. It's really hot here, we are used to it. And we have lots to deal with every day, fighting is what we love, and to have old men come to our backyard and beat us ? C'mon man, that just not gonna happen.

Yah eish we are lions and we hungry !

Yap is a good fighter, but he won't be good against me. But respect - I know he will try hard, he will do his best to make it good for the people watching"

Moabi Ngaka heads a team of 11 boxers from the African nations of Botswana, Zambia, Namibia and Zimbabwe to fight in Maun on March 30th.

Mark John Yap and Moabi Ngaka will compete for the World Boxing Foundation title at 130lb.

TEAM ASIA MEETS TEAM AFRICA

Former opponents - Vietnam's Thai Hoang Huy and Botswana's Moabi Ngaka, will meet again next month at a huge celebration of boxing in Africa.

RUMBLE IN THE OKAVANGO showcases many of the most promising boxers from the African nations, and pairs them with champions from the Philippines 🇵🇭, China 🇨🇳, India 🇮🇳 and Vietnam 🇻🇳.

Moabi "The Eagle" Ngaka is scheduled to fight the main event, a WBF International title match with one of the Philippines best performed international stars - Mark John Yap.

Thai Hoang Huy will be the least experienced of four Vietnam boxers who have been included in the TEAM ASIA squad.

Despite taking up boxing only 18 months ago, Huy has wasted no time, racking up 4 wins in 6 bouts in the space of a year. Not one to avoid a challenge, Huy will appear in the opening match against Namibia's highly promising David Kapusu, who scored impressively at his much awaited debut.

YAP PUTTING MILES IN THE LEGS FOR AFRICA

African boxers are famed for their athleticism, their cat like reflexes, but even moreso, their crazy endurance.

Their boxers have great lungs, which makes them ever so hard to beat in longer fights.

And Mark John Yap heads to Botswana on March 30th for a leg sapping 10 round classic with local star Moabi Ngaka.

Ngaka is fabled for his cardio, and rises at 4am to knock off 20km road runs before the sun beats hard.

Well two can play at that game !

The "Journey Man" Mark John Yap competed in the Cagayan de Oro "marathon" earlier today, landing a top five finish in the 10km road race. And the good news is, he was doing his best work at the finish.

Yap will spearhead a top international team in Botswana Africa next month, and is adament that he will have the legs to go with a younger and hungry Moabi Ngaka.

Ngaka has already raised eyebrows stating he will drop Yap, and make a statement win that will shock Asia.

But dropping Yap will be no easy feat !

Mark John Yap has 34 wins on his resume, with his only losses in recent years being against unbeaten and world rated opponents. Often these were bouts taken at extremely short notice, or out of his weight class. He also has plenty of firepower of his own, sending 17 opponents to the canvas.

The war of words has only just begun !

WHAT'S COMING IN 2024 ????

While everyone is sleeping off the effects of too much food and beer - some of us are still working !!

Mr. Sang Bum Kim of Cocky Buffalo has been a great supporter to the fight industry and Vietnam boxers this year, and the big news is, he will be doing an iconic International show at Paradise City Korea on January 13th 2024.

This event will highlight three of Vietnam's best professionals - Nguyễn Văn Hải, Tran Van Thao and Dinh Hong Quân.

These boxers are all booked in for huge bouts with foreign opponents, most notably Nguyễn Văn Hải. The "Hanoi Hitman" will take on Philippines 🇵🇭 star Genesis Servania, a winner of 33 of 36 fights.

Also appearing on the card is a very popular recent visitor to both Vietnam and VSP Gym - 🇧🇼 Botswana’s Moabi Ngaka.

"The Eagle" will fight in Korea as a prelude to a big event planned for Maun Botswana on March 30th. Vietnam boxers will be represented at this show also.

More exciting developments coming soon.

BOTSWANA BOXER TO RETURN TO HCMC

VSP PRO 11 is set to be the biggest and best of the year !

There are soooo many talented boxers that were itching to fight, so expect to see a huge card on December 23 (at this stage, we have at least 12 fights !)

And of special interest to boxing fans will be the return to Vietnam of Moabi Ngaka (pictured) - a recent winner at the Ho Tram RUMBLE in Vung Tau.

Moabi is a former youth champ in his native Botswana, and it's likely that he will perform a 6 round spar with Vietnam legend Nguyễn Văn Hải (who is a heavier weight class boxer)

Both fighters will use the VSP PRO show as a much needed "hit out" before heading to Korea for big fights at Paradise City on January 13th.

More news on the VSP PRO 11 fight card coming soon.

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.

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.

November 9, 2023

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.

VSP PRO #11: Nguyễn Ngọc Quyền vs. Nguyễn Triệu Vy - 79kg

Trận đấu "nặng ký" nhất ở VSP Pro chứng kiến một màn đôi công hấp dẫn khác. Ở hạng cân tới 79 kg, những đòn đánh của cả hai tay đấm Ngọc Quyền và Triệu Vy đều rất chất lượng. Trong 2 hiệp đầu tiên không có võ sỹ nào thực sự vượt trội, nhưng rõ ràng những đòn móc trái phải của Triệu Vy để lại ấn tượng tốt hơn.

Hiệp 3 chứng kiến Triệu Vy tích cực di chuyển áp sát và anh cũng có một cú tay sau và một đòn móc rất mạnh khiến gương mặt của Ngọc Quyền bật ra phía sau. Rõ ràng thể lực của Ngọc Quyền đã xuống nhanh và đòn đánh của anh cũng thiếu chuẩn xác trước khả năng áp sát của Triệu Vy. Kịch bản này kéo sang hiệp 4 và không ngạc nhiên khi Triệu Vy giành chiến thắng chung cuộc bằng tính điểm, dù Ngọc Quyền nỗ lực vùng lên ở khoảng 20 giây cuối.

VSP PRO #11: Trần Tấn Quang Đạo vs. Trương Hải Biền - 63.5kg

Cuộc so găng thú vị giữa tay đấm được đánh giá "dày dạn kinh nghiệm sàn VSP Pro" Trần Tấn Quang Đạo với đối thủ mới 17 tuổi Trương Hải Biền. Sau hiệp đấu đầu tiên thăm dò, chủ động giữ cự ly, Quang Đạo bắt đầu điều chỉnh chiến thuật và ra đòn hiệu quả hơn hẳn ở hiệp 2. Những tình huống tung ra combo đòn ở cự ly trung bình và gần giúp Quang Đạo có thế trận lấn lướt hơn hẳn trước Hải Biền.

Bước vào hiệp 3, khá bất ngờ khi thế trận đảo chiều. Hải Biền áp sát, bắt nhịp tốt hơn và tung ra nhiều đòn đấm chất lượng, hiệu quả. Sự luống cuống từ phía Quang Đạo ở hiệp này khiến nhiều người phải bất ngờ.

Trong hiệp đấu cuối cùng, cả hai tích cực trao đổi đòn ở cự ly gần. Quang Đạo không để mất thế trận như ở hiệp 3 nhưng anh cũng không thể lấn lướt trước đàn em Hải Biền. Sự cân bằng kéo trận đấu tới bảng điểm phân định thắng bại và tại đây tay đấm 17 tuổi tiếp tục tạo ra bất ngờ với chiến thắng không đồng thuận (2-1). Phần thưởng xứng đáng cho Hải Biền.

Tuy vậy, rất ngạc nhiên khi Hoàng Thông thi đấu chững chạc và không ngại đôi công.

Sau hiệp 1 khá cân bằng, Hoàng Thông bất ngờ ép đài và tung ra loạt đòn cực nặng, đáng chú ý có cú upper-cut bằng tay phải nặng ký khiến Xuân Hưng choáng váng. Sau 1 phút 30 giây hiệp này, trọng tài buộc phải dừng trận đấu. Hoàng Thông giành chiến thắng knock-out kỹ thuật.

VSP PRO #11: Lê Nguyễn Hoàng Long vs. Trần Tuấn Anh - 66kg

Trần Tuấn Anh bù đắp sự non nớt kinh nghiệm bằng sự máu lửa, anh chủ động ép đài và có 1 cú móc phải chất lượng ở giữa hiệp 1. Tuy vậy, kinh nghiệm giúp Hoàng Long ghi điểm tốt hơn bằng những đòn phản công hiệu quả, từ đòn jab đến đòn tay sau.

Sự chênh lệch về kinh nghiệm càng thể hiện rõ hơn ở hiệp 2 khi Hoàng Long liên tiếp có những combo đòn ăn điểm cực tốt. Ngược lại, Tuấn Anh không thể tìm ra chiến thuật hợp lý để đối phó. Tình hình càng trở nên tồi tệ hơn cho "tân binh" Tuấn Anh khi anh liên tục dính những đòn móc trái phải cực nặng từ Hoàng Long. Thậm chí cuối hiệp 3 còn có cảm giác Tuấn Anh sắp sửa bị knock-out đến nơi.

Bước vào hiệp cuối, khi thể lực suy giảm Tuấn Anh gần như chịu trận. Anh liên tục dính đòn và chỉ có may mắn cùng ý chí mới giúp tay đấm này không "đo sàn" trước những combo đòn chất lượng của Hoàng Long. Chiến thắng bằng tính điểm đồng thuận tuyệt đối cho Hoàng Long không cần bàn cãi.

PHẠM BÁ HỢI MAKES FIGHTING AN ART FORM

Pham Ba Hoi is without doubt one of Vietnam's best technicians in the sport of Kick Boxing.

A 7 times National Champion, the 28 year old crowned those multiple achievements with a SEA Games gold medal at the 2019 tournament held in Manila.

And if you're a Kick boxer, and you want to try boxing, surely it requires only half the effort ?

Well, that works in theory.

But here is the reality.

This Saturday night, Pham Ba Hoi makes his debut as a professional boxer against Duong Duc Bao, a 20 year old southpaw who looked outstanding when winning by knockout at his own debut.

Duc Bao, despite his inexperience, looks a top prospect in the making, and the confidence he showed in his win was impossible to miss.This kid is no pushover, and will not be overawed by the reputation of the older Pham Ba Hoi.

This is a cracking bout between two future stars.

It's the main event and is very likely the fight of the night !

WHIZ KID v VIETNAM CHAMPION WHO WINS ?

20 year old whiz kid Dung Duc Bao scored a stunning knockout when he debuted this year.

Pham Ba Hoi has won the national championships 7 times in Kick Boxing, and brought home Gold in the 2019 SEA Games.

And now he wants to make a name in BOXING !

Two hungry dogs - but only one bone!!!

WHO TAKES THIS ONE ?

VSP PRO 11 this Saturday night at VSP Gym. Admission is free and everyone are welcome.

First bout starts at 5.30pm but please arrive early, as seating is limited.

HUỲNH ĐOÀN TUẤN THÀNH AT VSP PRO 11

19 year old Huynh Doan Tuan Thanh was impressive at debut last August, winning a unanimous decision over a super fit Ho Minh Chieu.

Tuan showed a lot of attributes in that bout, most especially, changing stance and approach angle to confuse and open up attacks on his opponent.

This Saturday night presents the improving Vung Tau switch hitter with an even bigger challenge. He meets Nguyen Van Tinh Em, a medalist in both youth and open championships. Despite his accomplishments, Tinh Em is only 17 years of age, and is the youngest competitor at VSP PRO 11.

Both these boys are going to have big upside in the future, and this bout shapes as one of the best fights of the night this Saturday.

VSP PRO 11 live from VSP Gym this Saturday night. Admission is free but seating is limited, so please arrive early. First bout at 5.30pm.

DƯƠNG ĐỨC BẢO IS YOUR "MAIN" MAN !!

A sensational boxing debut in October by Duong Duc Bao had plenty of people asking to see more - and more you shall see.

To say Bao was impressive in his first fight is an understatement.

He totally dominated a far more experienced boxer, and forced the stoppage. The 20 year old produced volume, power punches and created some nice angles off a southpaw stance. It was literally an overwhelming performance.

But matching fighters can be a difficult game.

A 7 times national kickboxing champion and 2019 Sea Games gold medalist named Pham Ba Hoi wants to debut as a pro boxer.

But hey, who the hell would want to fight a guy with this sort of resume ?

Duong Duc Bao - that's who !

Ladies and gentlemen, grab your popcorn, this is our main event. ENJOY !

WBO IN KOREA

Nhà vô địch IBA thế giới Trần Văn Thảo và lão tướng Nguyễn Văn Hải du đấu tại Hàn Quốc

Ba võ sĩ Trần Văn Thảo, Nguyễn Văn Hải và Đinh Hồng Quân sẽ cùng nhau tranh tài trước các đối thủ nước ngoài tại sự kiện quyền anh chuyên nghiệp diễn ra ở Incheon, Hàn Quốc.

Cụ thể, sự kiện mà ba võ sĩ Việt Nam sẽ tham gia tranh tài là sự kiện do Cocky Buffalo tổ chức với tâm điểm là ba trận đấu tranh đai và bảo vệ đai vô địch.

Cuộc đối đầu chính của sự kiện là trận bảo vệ đai vô địch WBO Global hạng cân Minimumweight của nhà vô địch người Trung Quốc Dianxing Zhu (11-1, 10 KOs) trước đại diện đến từ Philippines Richard Garde (8-1, 7 KOs). Trước đó, tại sự kiện quyền Anh WBO Global Title Match diễn ra ở Bà Rịa Vũng Tàu tháng 11 vừa qua, nhà vô địch người Trung Quốc đã bảo vệ thành chiếc đai vô địch của mình khi đánh bại võ sĩ thách đấu từ Thái Lan Sanchai Yotboon.

Hai trận đấu tâm điểm khác của sự kiện là các cuộc so tài cho chiếc đai vô địch WBO Oriental giữa Olimjon Nazarov (28-5, 15 KOs) vs. Wulan Tuoleazi (15-5-2, 7 KOs) ở hạng cân Flyweight và Takahiro Tai (4-1, 4 KOs) vs. Lap Cheong Cheong (10-0, 4 KOs) ở hạng cân Super Flyweight.

Đặc biệt, sự kiện quyền anh chuyên nghiệp diễn ra tại Incheon, Hàn Quốc lần này thu hút được sự quan tâm lớn của người hâm mộ đến từ Việt Nam bởi sự tham gia của các võ sĩ Nguyễn Văn Hải, Trần Văn Thảo và Đinh Hồng Quân.

Lão tướng Nguyễn Văn Hải đang có một năm hoạt động tích cực khi liên tiếp tham gia các sự kiện quyền anh lớn nhỏ cả trong nước lẫn quốc tế. Lần gần nhất thượng đài tại sự kiện boxing quốc tế WBO Global Prelude, lão tướng của Việt Nam chỉ mất chưa tới 12 giây để hạ gục võ sĩ người Bangladesh Abdul Motalib.

Mặt khác, nhà vô địch IBA thế giới Trần Văn Thảo cũng không hề kém cạnh người đàn anh khi đã có một năm 2023 thành công. Trần Văn Thảo đã đánh bại võ sĩ người Mexico giàu kinh nghiệm Kenbun Torres trong lần tái xuất ở sự kiện quyền Anh WBO Global Title Match để nâng thành tích chuyên nghiệp của mình lên con số 16-1 ấn tượng.

THE WOLVERINE IS GUNNING FOR DISASTER

This is set to be THE fight of the day - JonJon "the Wolverine" Estrada going toe to toe with the man aptly named "Disaster" - Jhon Gemino.

Gemino certainly ranks as one of the most fearless and offensive pinoy fighters of recent years, and this rambunctious pugilist has enhanced a reputation of taking on all comers.

But Estrada has enhanced a cult like status of his own - his stalking, predatory stance combined with almost neanderthal like brush strokes - but when he hits, they stay hit !

And it's because of this penchant for violence and emphatic finishes that the Wolverine will always be compelling viewing - 17 wins, and yet the judges were only required 3 times.

Gemino certainly has the boxing pedigree in this contest, and has plenty of pop to keep Estrada on notice.

And he only needs to hold the Wolverine on a tight leash for 6 rounds.

But those 6 rounds will seem like an ETERNITY!

Great fight !

GENESIS SERVANIA HITS KOREA JAN 13TH

Paradise City Casino will stage it's first ever international boxing event this January - and they don't do things by half measures.

The new Casino hotel based in Incheon is working with Cocky Buffalo to bring the best in Asia to their inaugural event, and with a host of countries represented, the Philippines has two very interesting inclusions.

Richard Garde steps up in class to take on China's minimumweight star Dianxing Zhu, and despite his relative inexperience, he boasts an 8-1 7KO record that gives him a puncher's chance. This bout will be the main event, and his match against the rugged Zhu will be for the WBO Global belt.

But even more compelling is the return of Genesis Servania, who when at his best, is simply world class !

His war with unbeaten Mexican Oscar Valdez is testament to the fact, and his record of 34-4 echoes that he has layers of experience.

Servania resumed recently in an exhibition bout in Vietnam, but aside from looking "heavy" at 65kg, he looked in beautiful touch. The Bacolod star dropped his Indonesian rival in the second round, doing so with a mixture of well placed body rips finishing with shots to the head.

Genesis Servania will drop to Lightweight 61kg for his Korean bout, and he is matched with Vietnam legend Nguyễn Văn Hải. This bout is expected to be a really true test of where the Philippines boxer sits in his comeback journey.

More news in this fight and event coming soon.

AND YOU COULDN'T EVEN HEAR A PIN DROP

That is the sound of silence !

Equal parts stealthy and lethal, one of the Philippines' best fight technicians Arnel "the Silencer" Baconaje returns to the ring this coming Monday.

Baconaje is part of a top notch UNSTOPPABLE fight card to be held at the Elorde Sports Centre in Parañaque Manila.

And expect the champ to be in sparkling and devastating form - he has just recently returned from fight camp in Baguio where he helped prepare Marlon Tapales for his impending clash with "the Monster" Naoya Inoue.

Arnel Baconaje "The Silencer" will take on 18 fight winner JR Magboo, amongst a KILLER line up that includes "Wonder Boy" Carl Jammes Martin, "Magic Mike" Plania, "the Wolverine" JonJon Estrada, Jhon Gemino, Esneth Domingo, Michael Bravo, Presco Carcosia and "the Journey Man" Mark John SNAP SNAP Yap - just to name a few.

This is the biggest boxing show in Manila this year, and a great way for fight fans to celebrate 2023, so if you're local, make sure you come and see some of these stars perform live.

Everyone is welcome.

MARK JOHN YAP READY TO GO SNAP SNAP

Vietnam and VSP visitor from the Philippines Mark John Yap is set to finish 2023 the way it started - with a BANG !

Yap defeated the tough Leonardo Doronio by knockout in January, then took time out for the birth of his first child Yuri.

Despite putting on some weight, Yap came to Vietnam and performed an exhibition against national team boxer Nguyễn Hà Minh, and though looking rusty, he dropped his classy opponent multiple times in the final round for an impressive win.

Vietnam hosted Mark John Yap once more in July, when he headed to Ho Tram and bested Hasan Sikdar - once more by knockout.

The VSP sponsored boxer returns to the ring next Monday on a mammoth card to be held at the Elorde Sports Centre in Parañaque Manila. And looking at the shape he is in, another knockout would certainly not surprise.

Mark John Yap ranks with Charly Suarez as amongst the very best foreign boxers to ever come to Vietnam, and we really hope to see him here again in 2024.

VSP PRO BOXERS GAIN "RECOGNITION"

Lots of great bouts and individual performances at VSP PRO this year, and it's fantastic to see local businesses acknowledging all the hard work that our fighters put in.

Thai Hoang Huy has been one of the most prolific boxers on the circuit, competing in 6 bouts for a 4 win and 2 loss record. His most recent bout was at The Grand Ho Tram where he got to battle Botswana #1 - a huge achievement considering Huy has only been boxing for a year.

This week the popular nightspot Palazzo (located in the Sheraton hotel) acknowledged Thai Hoang Huy and their ongoing support.

Congratulations to Palazzo and boxer Thai Hoang Huy.

NEW FACES AND FAMILIAR FACES DECEMBER 23

VSP PR0 11 is just around the corner and promises to unearth some future stars once again.

But amongst the host of new faces, December 23 will see the return of some of the more regular and better known VSP PRO competitors.

Tran Tan Quang Dao is arguably the most improved boxer this year, and will return to the ring for VSP PRO 11.

Despite losing his first two bouts against top opposition, the Hanoi fighter regrouped, and quickly responded with two tradesman-like wins on the bounce. Dao produced the best boxing performance of the night in his most recent victory in August, working off a beautiful jab and landing nice combinations on the inside.

Tran Tan Quang Dao has proved a super popular fixture at VSP PRO this year, and we look forward to seeing more of this guy on December 23.

Fight card information coming soon.

HANOI "HITMAN" IN KOREA "MEGA FIGHT"

Vietnam's #1 boxer Nguyễn Văn Hải has shot up the rankings since going pro, so fast in fact, that he has been offered a fight in Korea next month against a world class opponent.

A multiple national champion in the amateurs, Nguyễn Văn Hải has won 5 of 6 since going pro - and has been extremely impressive since doing so.

The lone blemish for the VSP boxer was a loss to star Philippines lightweight Jerald Into, an unbeaten 9-0 southpaw who Hải faced after more than two years out of the ring.

Nguyễn Văn Hải caused a media sensation at his most recent performance, knocking out an unbeaten foreign boxer with his very first punch. Bangladesh boxer Abdul Mottalib was the victim of an overhand right, and suffered his first loss in 9 fights at the hands of the ruthless Vietnam champion.

The "Hanoi Hitman" will star for Vietnam 🇻🇳 at a huge international event to be held at the Paradise City Casino on January 13th, with news on his opponent and fight card coming soon.

Nguyễn Văn Hải will be in Ho Chi Minh City on December 23rd, where he will perform a 6 round exhibition at VSP PRO in preparation for the big match in Korea.

More updates coming soon.

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 WARM UP BOUT DECEMBER 23

The "Hanoi Hitman" will return to VSP PRO this month, in advance of a major fight scheduled for Korea on January 13th.

Nguyễn Văn Hải is currently ranked pound for pound #1 in Vietnam, and it is expected that he will take on a world ranked opponent at the Paradise City Hotel and Casino in Incheon next month.

It is always a treat to see this Vietnam legend fight live, and it's a major coup for VSP PRO 11 to host an exhibition bout for the Hitman Hải on Saturday December 23rd.

And for those who have not been lucky enough to have experienced it before - a word of advice.

Do not miss your chance to see this Vietnam champion in the flesh !

BOTSWANA BOXER TO RETURN TO HCMC

VSP PRO 11 is set to be the biggest and best of the year !

There are soooo many talented boxers that were itching to fight, so expect to see a huge card on December 23 (at this stage, we have at least 12 fights !)

And of special interest to boxing fans will be the return to Vietnam of Moabi Ngaka (pictured) - a recent winner at the Ho Tram RUMBLE in Vung Tau.

Moabi is a former youth champ in his native Botswana, and it's likely that he will perform a 6 round spar with Vietnam legend Nguyễn Văn Hải (who is a heavier weight class boxer)

Both fighters will use the VSP PRO show as a much needed "hit out" before heading to Korea for big fights at Paradise City on January 13th.

More news on the VSP PRO 11 fight card coming soon.

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 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 🔥 !!

November 28, 2023

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.

VIETNAM 🇻🇳 WELCOMES BOTSWANA 🇧🇼

Botswana boxer Moabi Ngaka arrived in Saigon late last night, yet was up early this morning and hard at work at VSP Boxing Gym.

Ngaka makes headlines as the first Botswana fighter to venture to Vietnam, when he appears at a big international event to be held in Vũng Tàu this Saturday night.

The Botswana boxer, known as the Eagle, will compete against local Vietnam talent Thai Hoang Huy over 6 rounds.

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.

Vietnam 🇻🇳 welcomes boxing friends and visitors from many countries, and wishes Botswana 🇧🇼 a great performance this Saturday night.

"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

Philippines boxer (soon to be announced) at the Paradise City in Incheon Korea.

Vietnam

will like have another representative in the form of the "Hanoi Hitman" Nguyễn Văn Hải, and also a recent visitor from Botswana

Moabi Ngaka is rumoured for possible inclusion.

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.
