Round 3 of .ismaill fight. He was getting stronger as the fight went on and really starting to take control of the bout. The adjustments were working, the confidence was building and he was dominating the round.
Unfortunately boxing can change in a split second. A clash led to an elbow opening up his eye, ending the fight and leaving him needing six stitches. Tough way for it to end when the momentum had fully swung his way, but I’m proud of the way Michael handled himself throughout the fight.
Sometimes the result doesn’t tell the full story. Onto the next one. 🥊

Round 2 of Michael’s fight. After losing the first round, we came back to the corner, spoke about a few adjustments and went back out with a different approach.
Michael listened, stayed composed and started finding his rhythm. Better movement, sharper timing and a much stronger round to bring the fight back even. That’s what good fighters do, they adjust under pressure and respond when it matters. 🥊

Round 1 of Michael’s fight. Close round and we probably dropped this one, but that’s boxing. Sometimes it takes a round to settle in, find the timing and make the adjustments.

What I loved was the composure. No panic, no rushing, just staying switched on and building into the fight. The momentum was starting to shift our way before the unfortunate head clash later in the bout stopped things early.

Plenty to take away from this one and plenty more to come for Michael. 🥊

Congratulations to on becoming the new Victorian State Champion today and moving to 6-1 👑🥊

Proud is an understatement. This kid isn’t only a star inside the ring, he’s just as impressive outside of it too. While most people only see the fights, they don’t see the discipline behind the scenes. Studying for school exams, scoring over 90% on them, and still putting in the work every day to prepare for a state title fight isn’t an easy gig at all.

That balance takes sacrifice, maturity and serious character. The future is bright for this young man, both in boxing and in life. This is only the beginning 💯

Unfortunately Michael Ismail’s fight was stopped at the beginning of the third round after an accidental head clash that’s going to require a few stitches.

A very frustrating outcome after all the hard work and preparation he put into this tournament, especially because the injury now rules him out of today’s bout and tomorrow’s bout as well.

Sometimes boxing can be cruel like that. One moment changes everything. But the effort, discipline and performances leading into this don’t disappear because of an unfortunate clash of heads.

Heal up, recover properly, and we’ll be back again soon 🥊
