Some gyms teach moves.
We forge martial artists.
Last night wasn't luck. It was thousands of hours, thousands of rounds, and trust in the process.
Senpai Avi stepped into the finals of an underground boxing tournament with a 70,000 dollar truck on the line.
Two rounds, two minutes each then a endurance round with no clock. He stayed composed, stuck to the game plan, and brought it home.
But the story doesn't stop there.
Isa came just to support his teammate Avi, then a fighter drops out and with five minutes notice, cold, no warm up, he said, "I'll fight". That's what martial artists do.
He stepped in, stayed calm, followed the plan and finished with a knockout.
That's fight IQ, discipline, and trust in action. And as a coach, watching your athletes believe in the game plan we've lived day in and day out, and then execute it under pressure.
That's the real win. This is who we are. This is why we train. Congratulations Senpai Avi and Isa. true martial artists in every sense.
What made the wins even more special was to have their hands raised by BKFC Champion Lorenzo Hunt!
Massive shoutout to both Rumble in the Bronx & Nizo for putting this together.
Their goal was simple but genuine 1) Stop the senseless murders of children in the streets but putting guns down and Gloves up ! 2) To give the winner a beautiful truck and the opportunity to have a career guided by the successful Nizo.
These two are here to help lift the community and see everyone around them win in life.
Thank you both for what you do!
