There is some great fighters coming through, It’s unclear whether any will make it to the bigger stages, but that is the point of the series: give domestic-level fighters experience, keep them active and try to help ensure that when they get a chance to step up to the next level, they won’t enter that phase naively.
“It is hard to get the chance to compete at a world-class level as an Australian boxer, and we give fighters a chance to test themselves,” Tolj said. “Fights like the main event speak to what we are doing. We are putting on good fights with regional fighters and when the time comes they will be ready.”
“Im so excited with this card they are all cant miss fights, March 13th and Metro City is the place to be, make sure you check this one out”
