Tough and friendly Indian fighter Sachin Rohila got official permission from the Indian army for a hot boxing clash in Thailand.

From his super cold, super isolated, lonely army post patrolling the mountains in the international border between India and China, the strong Indian soldier will fly to ultra hot Bangkok, Thailand, to battle undefeated well-trained French warrior Florent “The Tiger” Dervis.

The two brave men will collide in a non-title super welterweight clash on Thursday, August 31, in another Highland Promotion at the plush Spaceplus Bangkok Night Club.

Interestingly, both are unbeaten fighters, Rohila with a pro record of 7 wins, 0 losses, 1 win by way of KO; while Dervis from France has numbers of 6 wins, 0 losses, with 4 victories before the final bell.

It seems that the 24-year-old boxer from France can punch much harder thank the Indian. Correct?

Yes, possibly, but we all know that in boxing numbers can be deceiving. It’s on the ring where we can all appreciate who is who.

That’s why we need to watch the real fight to learn who of the two can really box better.


Sachin Rohila.

Rohila is guided by Indian star coach, former boxer Brijesh Kumar of CMS Promotions India; while Dervis Florent is trained by experienced Thailand-based Türkiye coach former fighter “Tunal” Baris Erdogan.

Billed as “Roar of Tigers,” Rohila VS Dervis is a promotion of Filipino Brico Santig and Supanat Chanram of the Highland Boxing Gym ค่ายมวยไทย มวยสากล.

Rohila of India or Dervis from France? May the best man win!!
