At Ubud Muay Thai, we believe that every journey starts with a single move forward. Last week, we proudly participated in Garuda Combat Night 2, a thrilling event that showcased 14 intense bouts across Boxing, K1, Muay Thai, and MMA. This electrifying night brought together Indonesia’s finest local talent and top international fighters, creating a spectacle of adrenaline, emotion, and top-tier entertainment.
First-Time Fighters: A Story of Determination
Two of our fighters, Sophian and Abel, stepped into the ring for the first time. Competing in the Boxing and K1 categories respectively, they entered the arena not as seasoned professionals but as beginners eager to test their mettle. For us, their participation wasn’t about securing a win—it was about taking that brave step forward.
Sophian’s journey to his first boxing match was a testament to perseverance. As a beginner, he faced countless challenges during his preparation, but his determination never wavered. With the guidance of our trainers, Sophian honed his technique, built his confidence, and stepped into the ring ready to give it his all. His debut marked a significant milestone, showing that hard work and courage are key to personal growth.
Abel Yares’ journey to the K1 category was equally inspiring. As someone who had never competed before, he embraced every challenge head-on. Our trainers provided personalized training, carefully tailoring sessions to his strengths while addressing areas for growth. Beyond the technical guidance, they stood by his side every step of the way—offering encouragement, refining his techniques, and ensuring he was mentally prepared to face his first competition. Abel’s courage to step into the ring is a testament to the transformative power of dedication and support.
