On April 19th in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnamese fight fans will meet one of Hong Kong’s most experienced female boxing figures when "Winnie" Yin Yin Au (歐盈盈) steps into the ring at TRIGGER PROMOTION 7.
Born on September 7, 1984, in Hong Kong, “Winnie” Au represents the steady wave of emerging fighters from the city’s growing boxing scene.
Competing professionally in the super bantamweight (122 lbs) division, she currently holds a record of 1–0–1, most recently securing a unanimous decision victory at Queen Elizabeth Stadium in Hong Kong.
But her professional record tells only part of the story.
Built Through the Amateur Ranks
Before turning professional, Au built a deep foundation in international amateur boxing.
She competed at the 2020 Asia/Oceania Olympic Boxing Qualification Tournament in Amman, Jordan, where she faced world-class Irish Magno of the Philippines in the women’s flyweight division — a supreme test at elite level competition.
In 2024, she claimed a silver medal at the Olympic Dreamer Tournament, competing in the women’s bantamweight (54kg) category — further proof of her continued ring knowledge, experience, and composure under pressure.

Height: 5’4” (163 cm)

April 19 – Hong Kong vs Vietnam
On April 19th in Ho Chi Minh City, Au will face Vietnam’s own Michelle Nguyễn in a four-round bantamweight clash under the TRIGGER PROMOTION banner.
The bout represents more than just a contest — it is part of a potential regional rivalry and collaboration between Hong Kong and Vietnam boxing.
The event will feature three fighters from Hong Kong, highlighting the territory’s expanding presence in Southeast Asian professional boxing.
For Vietnamese fans, this will be their first close look at a seasoned Hong Kong campaigner who blends amateur polish with professional ambition.
On April 19th, Yin Yin Au doesn’t just bring her unbeaten professional record into the ring in Vietnam.
She enters as a veteran of international competition, a silver medallist, and a proud representative of Hong Kong — ready to test herself in hostile territory.
And in boxing, that’s when the real story often begins.
Despite suffering narrow losses, Ben Ligas and Jules Victoriano produced next level performances in the belt fights in Vietnam last night.
Ligas faced the vastly experienced Uzbek, the much revered "mini Tyson " Olimjon Nazarov. This was quality boxing from both, with "the Sniper" bringing the cleaner punches, but perhaps lacking the aggression of Nazarov, who looked constantly keen for work. This was a hard match to score, as neither fighter was particularly dominant in a see sawing affair, and the body shot in the 11th where Ligas took a knee was perhaps the only real difference.
Dinh Hong Quan is physically indomitable, and with his height and reach, this improving Vietnam boxer is a task for anybody. It was anticipated that Jules Victoriano would give him his toughest test to date, and he definitely didn't disappoint !
This was a great fight, and is probably best viewed in two parts. Victoriano boxed beautifully in the early rounds, but despite landing nice shots, the Vietnam champ kept stealing rounds with some heavier and more direct landed shots. Quan also "appeared" more dominant, more frequently backing Victoriano up and putting him on to combos.
Going into the second half of the fight, Victoriano definitely lifted his output and accuracy, and even gave the Vietnam opponent a couple of "dig deep" moments !
This was an exciting and fantastic match up, that very easily could have been scored a draw, it was that evenly contested! There is no doubt that Dinh Hong Quan produced the best performance of his career last night, and this was really needed because of the beautiful boxing skills displayed by Jules Victoriano.
VSP would love to see these two great young fighters rematch at a later date, maybe on a bigger stage!
Post event, all smiles, and pictured are Coach Toto Laurente, Ben Ligas, VSP Vietnam boss Lim Song, and Jules Victoriano. Great job by all !
