🥊 COMPLETE WRAP UP 🥊

A big night in Terrigal with plenty to take away from every performance.

Dylan had a red-hot crack as always. He never stops trying, but this time we were outboxed and lost on points. The next step for Dyl is learning to turn that solid defence into scoring opportunities. Sometimes a loss is exactly what you need to highlight the next area to work on.

Leo Osbourne was very unlucky against the A fighter in his weight class for NSW. Leo did exactly what was asked, showed maturity, held a stronger ring position and prepared extremely well. He’s going to be in plenty of close fights moving forward, and the next step is using that fitness to push the pace and take those decisions beyond doubt. Had Leo got the split decision, we’d all be talking about how well he boxed — so there’s no concern here.

Mandey Mastnak showed enormous character against a very strong opponent. We did our best to weather the storm, but it kept coming. With a little more self-belief and a few more months of work, Mandey will be a completely different boxer. Tough nights happen to every boxer, and there is plenty to build on.

Max had a great exhibition against one of Complete Boxing’s young guns. Max gave away some weight, but his skill and boxing were on point. He listened extremely well and put together a performance we were really happy with.

Nick “Spartan” Debelja keeps getting better every time he boxes. A great win against a very good opponent. His feet won him the fight, and we’re getting so much better at using the edge of the ring and controlling range.

Coach Mike also shook off some ring rust and had great exo. With a former boxer making his return to the ring. Some great shots thrown by both fighters to close out the Battaglia Boxers for the night!

Thanku to Troy and Jinky who helped corner an all of the fiends and family that came out to support.
Also Isa and Joel for a great show!

It’s a circus 🎪but it’s our circus 🤡 👊💙

This Father’s Day, we wanted to tell you about one of ours.

Tim is a dad of two.

Since 2019, life has asked more of him than most people see.

Through treatment, exhaustion and days where there’s barely anything in the tank, he continues to find his way through these doors.

Not because every day feels good.

Because routine matters. Movement matters. Community matters.

And perhaps one of the greatest things we can show our kids isn't that we're always strong, it's what we choose to do when we're not.

Thank you for sharing your story with us, Tim.

And Happy Father’s Day to every dad quietly showing their kids what resilience looks like. ❤️

We spend so much of childhood protecting them.

But eventually, the job becomes preparing them.

To handle hard things.
To back themselves.
To know how to protect themselves.
To respect others.
To keep going when things get uncomfortable.

Kinda cool that boxing can help with all of that. 🥊
