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.

(If you wanna Rock'n Roll)

One of Ho Chi Minh City's most popular boxers returns to next Saturday night for the 9th installment of the very popular VSP PRO.

Lê Nguyễn Hoàng Long has perhaps been one of Saigon's unluckiest boxers with injuries, and he resumed from a very long break at VSP PRO last July.

In what was meant to be a "soft" return to the sport he loves, Long was unfortunate to lose his debutant opponent at the very last moment.

Not one to avoid a challenge, Long accepted the monumental task of being matched with in form national team star Nguyễn Hà Minh.

Long showed lots of great signs in his comeback fight, before being caught by his top class opponent late in the bout.

Next Saturday night, Long meets Binh Duong youngster TRƯƠNG HẢI BIỀN in what should be a cracking bout. Long definitely possesses the experience edge over his taller and rangier rival, and it will be interesting to see if he is able to keep this young gun on a tight leash.

One thing for sure, Lê Nguyễn Hoàng Long is a real crowd pleaser and he will definitely be throwing bombs however long the battle lasts.

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

Lương Nguyễn Công Khải is one of the best known names in Vietnam boxing, yet the Quảng Ngãi fighter vanished from the sporting landscape for close to 3 years !

Khải was highly regarded on the local scene, even winning a HCMC title, but years of training took a toll on his body. He decided enough was enough, and ended up having surgery to deal with his chronic shoulder pain, and also his restricted power and movement. But whilst the surgery was deemed a success, there was an extensive period of rehabilitation to endure.

These were long hours of constant stretching and strengthening, and finally Khải knew it was time to put his shoulder to the test. He entered the ring for the first time in three years back in August - a VSP PRO match against former youth champ Truong Ngo Gia Huy  - definitely no easy task for your first time back in the ring !

The match was excellent, and despite some ring rust and being slightly short of fitness, the Killer showed many qualities of his former self. At the end, the judges could not seperate the two fighters, and declared it a draw, but it was very obvious that Khai would soon be a force to be reckoned with.

And as if it was scripted, the KILLER returns next Saturday night for VSP PRO 9. He is matched up against DƯƠNG ĐỨC BẢO - a southpaw from Max Fight club in HCMC who will be making his professional debut. The reports are extremely good on this boy, and his team are confident they can keep Khải out of the winner's list for a little while longer.

But based on what we saw in August, and knowing  the level that Lương Nguyễn Công Khải was at before he was injured, this may be a big task for Bao.

EXPECT TO SEE A KILLER UNLEASHED NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT !

Matrix Boxing prospect Lâm Trí Siêu has always had skills, but his love for beer and buffet has always challenged his love for boxing !

Siêu made a nice debut in June, scoring a points win over a very combative Nguyễn Dat Viet.

But it was a very "cuddly" fighter that presented at that show, weighing in at a touch under 80kg.

In spite of the impressive performance, it was suggested that the HCMC boxer would be better suited in a lighter weight class, and soon we get to see if the opinion is on the money.

Lâm Trí Siêu returns for VSP PRO 9 next Saturday October 28th, and it will be a leaner 76kg that will appear in the ring. Siêu takes on promising debutant PHAM HỮU TÀI in what will likely be one of the best fights on the card.

If you have never been to the fights, do not miss this show next Saturday at VSP Gym in HCMC. Admission is free, but please arrive early as seating is sometimes limited.

Looking for Vietnam  future stars for the last two events of the year :

VSP PRO 1O    -    Saturday November 25

VSP PRO 11    -    Saturday December 23

Contact us NOW if you want to FIGHT !

Next show this month is Saturday October 28th.

‍

It was a really nice foreign debut for Phan Minh Quân in Korea last Sunday.

Quân took on unbeaten Uzbekistan boxer Sirochbek Ismoilov  - a former amateur champion and national team member.

Vietnam had plenty of good touches, and despite a narrow loss, served it up to the Uzbek champ.

Great quality fight, and Phan Minh Quân will COME BACK STRONGER !

‍

This time last year Muay Thai fighter Thai Hoang Huy was looking to make his boxing debut.

And what a debut  !  

The fighter dubbed "Naksu" (which means WARRIOR in Muay Thai) fought an exhibition with Philippines famed KILLER  JonJon Estrada - a boxer with 16 wins and ouch !   -  14 Knockouts.

That exhibition bout inspired Thai Hoang Huy to turn professional  - and the Ho Chi Minh City boxer now owns the impressive record of 4 wins and one split decision loss in his five bouts to date.

Certainly not one to walk away from a challenge, Naksu now has some huge news breaking !

Thai Hoang Huy will represent Vietnam at an international event at The Grand Ho Tram Resort and Casino on November 18th on a top class card assembled by Cocky Buffalo Promotions.

Huy will take on Botswana hotshot Moabi Ngaka, in what will be a prelude for the African boxer's title fight in late December.

Ngaka was a superb amateur that has transitioned impressively to the pro format, and is now regarded as his country’s best fighter.

And Ngaka will take his own place in history, as this will be the first time we get to see an African boxer perform in Vietnam.

Thai Hoang Huy has been one of the consistent improvers at VSP PRO this year, and we wish him lots of luck in this monumental yet exciting challenge that lay ahead.

‍

Too many great fighters - not enough fights !

So we have added an extra VSP PRO on Nov 25 !

Boxers, if you want to fight on the last two shows of the year (November 25 and December 16) - please contact us at VSP.

‍

This was the main event, and it was a cracking contest between two very promising featherweights.

Without doubt -  the best fight of the night !

ĐỖ VĂN THIỆN NGÂN and ĐOÀN HOÀI NHỚ went non-stop, sharing plenty of great moments in a fight that rightfully could have gone either way.

The judges nod was a split decision win to the Ca Mau boxing team fighter ĐOÀN HOÀI NHỚ.

Very excited to see both of these top prospects in future bouts !

‍

It was a super impressive debut by southpaw Pham Van Thành to win the main undercard bout.

The super bantamweight contest was high level, and opponent Truong Ngo Gia Huy showed nice skills and movement throughout.

But it was the more consistent touches and ring control that won the judges, and the Binh Duong boxer Pham Van Tan scored the first of what is surely many wins to come.

‍

Excellent bout between two fighters making their debut - Team Manny boxer LÊ NGỌC MINH KHÔI and Khang Anh Martial Arts Club PHẠM LÊ GIA HUY.This was an excellent bout where both boxers adhered to basics, maintaining a decent punch volume throughout.Huy was the much taller boxer, and used his range well to outpoint his opponent, who often tried to broach distance with a high guard but lacking the fast head movement and jab. The Khang Anh boxer impressed the judges, and lots more wins seem assured.LÊ NGỌC MINH KHÔI was an excellent debut, but certainly had issues with the height and range of his opponent. He looks like a drop to 48-50kg class will suit him far better, and expect to see him winning with more experience under his belt.

Improving novice Thai Hoàng Huy went on the attack in round two, after trailing 10-8 in the early scorecards.

Huy was unfortunate in round one, after appearing to slip just prior to receiving a glancing blow, and was deducted two points for the knockdown.

But the former muay thai fighter quickly made up for it, landing a peach of an uppercut on Tran Ngọc Phuong Hieu to end the battle in stunning fashion.

Despite his inexperience as a boxer, Thai Hoang Huy has improved markedly since he debuted, and moves to 4-1 as a professional.

‍

Tran Thi Kim Chi definitely showed that she is a top prospect, but Quảng Ngãi dynamo edged the rounds last night with punch volume and accuracy to score her second win as a professional. Unanimous decision.

Quality fight.

‍

This one was too close to call !

The judges could not choose between Phan Thành Kinh and Pham Quốc Ngu.

These two punched themselves to a standstill.

‍

Lê Tuấn Anh - Xuất sắc vượt bài test sau 5 tháng tập luyện

Winner - Pro Debut

Unanimous decision

Nguyễn Văn Đương vừa có chiến thắng 4-0 trước võ sĩ Nepal Lama Buddha Gyamjo, qua đó vào vòng trong gặp ĐKVĐ thế giới Abdumalik Khalokov (Uzbekistan).

Sở dĩ Đương thắng 4-0 bởi có trọng tài chấm 28-28, trong khi cũng có trọng tài chấm 25-30, 26-30...

Here's one for the watch list next Saturday night !!

18 year old Quảng Ngãi prospect Duyên returns for VSP PRO 8 for a featherweight 57kg bout against Can Tho team's TRẦN THI KIM CHI.

Duyen is a former youth and club champion gold medal winner, and debuted in March at VSP PRO with a classy victory over Hoang Thuy Linh. She looked very restrained in that performance, and expect to see something special from Duyên this coming Saturday.

She is certainly one of the future stars for women's boxing in Vietnam.

Ali Cañega and Joseph Ambo scored wins in the two main bouts at Manny Pacquiao’s show in Mandaluyong last night.

Cañega took a well deserved majority decision over quality prospect Jhun Rick Carcedo, who made it an enthralling 10 rounds for the fans. The win earnt Cañega the PBF super lightweight belt, but a title that may have been void with a different result. Carcedo weighed in 5lb over the limit, and a good 6lb heavier than Ali Cañega, who always looks very long and lean.

Joseph Ambo got the victory against outstanding southpaw Gary Tamayo, but it presented in unfortunate circumstances.

The bout seemed to be trending in Tamayo's favour, but he struggled for breath at stages of the contest, and was forced to retire in the 4th round. "The Hawk" was taken to hospital shortly afterwards, and our thoughts are behind him in making a swift and full recovery.

Congratulations to all the fighters who put on a great show yesterday at BLOW BY BLOW.

Vietnam will be the focal point of the best in boxing this November when VICTORY8 makes it's long awaited return.

The event which promises to deliver the ultimate in culture and sports to Hanoi, will take place outdoors at the historic Hoan Kiem Lake in the Old Quarter of the capital.

VICTORY8 pitches Vietnam's best and most promising boxers against the might of a World Team - a squad carefully selected for their variety of skills, styles and geography.

And those attributes lead us to the gem of Africa  - BOTSWANA  !!

This country is landlocked and nestled in the middle of the continent, and whilst famous for it's diamonds, it will surely become renowned soon for another commodity.

BOXING  !!

Breaking news is that Vietnam will get it's first look at an African fighter this November, with Botwana #1  Moabi Ngaka confirmed to make the trip for VICTORY8.

Ngaka had a great amateur career with over 70 fights, and has already scored 2 wins as a pro. It is expected that the champion Ngaka will compete in a 6 round bout at VICTORY8 as preparation for a huge match to be held in Botswana at the end of the year. It is likely that the African boxer will take on the Philippines hurtful puncher Mark John Yap as the main event.

The Botswana contingent will also do a media conference in Hanoi detailing their big plans for their star's title match in December, and Yap will face off with his African foe in Vietnam to market the event.

Watch this space, as we will have more information on Vietnam and World Team selections in the coming weeks.

‍

VSP PRO has unearthed lots of unheralded yet talented fighters so far, and our next installment on Saturday September 30th promises to continue the trend.

One of six boxers that will make their debut is 52kg firebrand Lê Ngọc Minh Khoi - a 22 year old boxer who always looked destined for the pro ranks.

The solidly built Dong Nai fighter has actually been around boxing since he was a kid, and even achieved a bronze medal at the nationals back in 2014. But his come forward and aggressive style always beckoned the professional format, and as destiny has it, the Team Manny boxer will make his long awaited first appearance at the VSP Gym in two weeks time.

Khoi will take on Pham Lê Gia Huy of the Khang Anh Martial Art Club in HCMC, and for sure, this will be a hell fight between two very fiery combatants making their debuts.

‍

Join us at VSP Gym in HCMC to catch all the future stars in action on Saturday night September 30th.

Young guns unveiled ! Read on :

Thai Hoang Huy has proved one of the most popular prospects  on the circuit this year, and will be aiming for his 4th win as a professional at this month's show.

Huy will take on Omega Boxing’s talltimber Tran Ngọc Phuong Hieu, who is on debut but extremely confident of a first up victory at the iconic VSP Gym.

WBC ASIA LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP

It's Philippines meets Thailand

Watch the Journey Man hits the road once more and will jump in weight in a bold plot to overthrow champion Apichet Petchmanee 15-1.

Saturday September 30th in  Bangkok Thailand.

Mindanao mauler Mark John Yap has been offered the opportunity to add another title to his collection at very short notice, and has enlisted some family help before he heads to Manila. A 3x OPBF champion at 118lb in Japan, Yap is set to make an audacious bid to win the WBC Asia Lightweight title (at 135lb !) in Bangkok at the end of this month. Despite the very short time to prepare, his brother has stepped in to fast track his training for the impending WBC event. But brother Alberto Yap jr is no stranger to the sport of hard knocks  ! The  CDO local is a former amateur star, having even won the Philippines national youth title in a past life  ! Mark John Yap has really proved to be a renaissance man in recent times, and despite having to compete above his normal weight class this month, he is expected to be a huge chance to secure more silverware for the Philippines ! Yap takes on the outstanding Thai champion Apichet Petchmanee, a boxer who boasts a 15-1 record.

"The Sniper" Ben Ligas is in career best shape to shock them at the beautiful coastal  town of Burleigh Heads in Australia tomorrow night.

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.

Vietnam's biggest boxing franchise VICTORY8 is trying to secure the iconic Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi for a huge event this November.

The event attracted more than 50 million views on local television and on-line platforms.

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.

Mark John Yap v Apichet Petchmanee

WBC ASIA TITLE

September 30th  Bangkok, Thailand

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.

2 tuyển thủ boxing Phước Tùng và Minh Cường cùng show ảnh tryhard từ Thái Lan, trong chuyến tập huấn cuối cùng trước khi lên đường tới Hàng Châu, Trung Quốc tranh tài ASIAD 19.

Đây là cách các thành viên đội tuyển boxing gửi lời chúc mừng lễ Quốc Khánh 2/9. Với họ nhiệm vụ quốc gia là thiêng liêng, được sống và chiến đấu cho màu cờ sắc áo là vinh dự.

Theo nguồn tin của iThethao.vn, đội tuyển boxing nam Việt Nam đã chốt 5 thành viên, trong đó có 1 HLV và 4 VĐV dự ASIAD 19 tại Hàng Châu, Trung Quốc vào cuối tháng 9.

1, HLV trưởng Nguyễn Anh Dũng

2, Nguyễn Minh Cường - võ sĩ hạng 51kg

3, Nguyễn Văn Đương - võ sĩ hạng 57kg

4, Bùi Phước Tùng - võ sĩ hạng 71kg

5, Nguyễn Mạnh Cường - võ sĩ hạng 80kg

Danh sách 4 võ sĩ tham dự ASIAD 19 đã thay đổi so với danh sách đi tập huấn tại Uzbekistan hồi tháng 7. Trước đó, ngoài 4 cái kể trên còn có Vũ Thành Đạt - võ sĩ hạng 65kg. Do dính chấn thương vai, Thành Đạt đã phải chấp nhận bỏ lỡ Đại hội năm nay.  

Những võ sĩ nằm trong danh sách dự ASIAD 19 đều là những cái tên tốt nhất của boxing Nam Việt Nam thời điểm hiện tại. Bùi Phước Tùng là chủ nhân của tấm HCV SEA Games 32, Nguyễn Văn Đương và Nguyễn Minh Cường đều giành được huy chương trong chuyến tập huấn và thi đấu tại Uzbekistan, Nguyễn Mạnh Cường cũng cho thấy sự tiến bộ sau quãng thời gian tập luyện rất căng thẳng.

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.

We're ready to go again !

VSP wants to thank all the boxers that fought so well on Saturday night  - everyone loved the performances that you guys produced. Lots of great match ups and plenty of crowd noise !

Can't wait to see what the next show brings.

VSP PRO 8 -   Saturday September 30

Join us for a great night of fun fight action !

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.
