What a night of boxing! 🔥🥊
Tonight we travelled west with our young Gino, who was boxing on the Prize Fighter Home Show, an event that never disappoints! We were absolutely delighted to be invited back once again, and what a night it turned out to be.
The place was absolutely packed, the atmosphere was electric, Sweet Caroline was blasting out, and then it was time to enter the ring! 🥊🔥
From the opening bell, it was clear we were in for a war.
Gino was up against Joseph Thomas, and from the very first bell both boys went at it.
The first round was extremely close, with both boys showing great skill, courage and determination. I had Gino edging it.
The second round was just as competitive. Both lads were having success, standing their ground and landing some big, heavy shots. This time, the round went to Joseph.
Then came the third.
Both boys knew this fight was right on a knife edge, and they left absolutely everything in that ring. Gino and Joseph went toe-to-toe in another incredibly close and competitive round, giving the packed crowd exactly what they came to see.
Then came the judges’ scorecards…
The decision went to Joseph Thomas.
No complaints from us whatsoever. It was a fair decision in a fantastic fight between two very evenly matched young boxers. Both boys gave everything they had, and both can walk away with their heads held high. 👏🥊
A massive thank you to Kevin and the whole Prize Fighter team for having us once again. Events like this are what boxing is all about!
Thank you to the Western Division RNJs and, of course, our brilliant home support, Oliver and Duffy, for being there and making the night even more special.
A huge special thank you to Stuart for all his help and support tonight, and for everything he continues to do for us and the gym. It is genuinely appreciated. ❤️
And finally… Gino.
As his coach, I honestly couldn’t be prouder.
This was without doubt Gino’s best performance to date. The result might not have gone our way tonight, but performances like this show exactly what he is capable of.
He showed courage, heart, skill, determination and the willingness to stand in there and fight until the very last bell.
The win will come. Tonight was another huge step forward.
Keep your head up, Gino. You did yourself, your family, your team and your gym proud. ❤️🥊
We go again! 💪🔥
