On Tuesday 30th March 2010, the Weigh In for the next edition of the IFS White Collar Boxing event was held at Harry’s Bar at Dempsey. A 100+ crowd saw for the first time the transformed shapes of the boxers (well some of them), and the Boxers all found out for the first time who they would be fighting.

These guys have been training hard for the past 12 weeks at Vanda Boxing Club, and in 10 days time it is time to put that training into practice at Suntec Ballroom, where they face off and fight for a great course – The Childrens’ Surgical Centre in Cambodia (www.csc.org).

Top of the bill will be the WWCBA Asia Pacific Heavyweight Championship Title between John ‘Smokin’ Cappetta and Toby ‘Tornado’ Dodd.

From all of us at Vanda Boxing Club, have a great night, do us proud, and most of all – enjoy it.

On Saturday 27th March 10 fighters from Vanda Boxing Club participated in the SABA Invitational Championships at Sengkang Riverside Park. Unfortunately, out of the 10, only 6 had opposition who matched their weight.

The 6 were Kuldeep Singh, Jay Fong, Bryan Chan, Marcus Ko, Jason Chua and Jason Lee.

Out of the 6 the guys ended up with 2 Winners Medals, 2 Silver medals, and 2 semi-finallists.

Congratulations must go to all Vanda Boxing Club Competitors, but a special mention must go to Marcus Ko, who won his category’s final on points, and Kuldeep Singh, who won his semi-final and final by TKO.

Other results were
Jay Fong – lost in final
Jason Chua – lost in final

Thanks must also go to those Vanda Boxing Club members who headed up to Sengkang to support the guys.

Next event will be the SABA National Championships in May 2010.

WELL DONE TO ALL
