fight night recap: good vibes boxing show
The local boxing scene came alive at the Good Vibes Gym boxing show, featuring thrilling matchups between local fighters and international talent from Portugal. Sliema Fight Co. had three warriors step into the ring, delivering spirited performances and showcasing the grit, determination, and heart we value so deeply. Here’s a recap of the action:
luigi ventura: explosive debut
Kicking off the night, Luigi Ventura made a memorable debut against a taller, more experienced opponent. Despite taking some heavy shots, Luigi demonstrated incredible tenacity and relentless pressure throughout the bout. His warrior spirit was evident as he pushed his opponent to the limit. While he ultimately lost on points, this was an invaluable experience. With his first fight under his belt, we’re confident Luigi will return stronger, sharper, and even more refined.
Jean micallef: one to watch
Jean stepped into the ring for an exhibition bout that left the crowd buzzing. The evenly matched contest was a showcase of his impressive skills—excellent head movement, rapid hand speed, and unyielding grit under pressure. One of your youngest on our senior team, but Jean made it clear that he’s one to watch, and we’re excited to see his continued development in the ring.
marik wittke: promising exhibition
Marik also participated in an exhibition bout, showing great promise against another evenly matched opponent. Trained and supported by his Heavyweight Titleholder brother Drago Wittke, Marik displayed remarkable composure and a well-calculated approach. His well-timed combinations and calm demeanor throughout the fight reflected the hard work put in during camp. The Wittke brothers proved to be a dynamic duo, and we’re eager to see Marik’s continued progression.
