March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Jargal Otgonjargal (0-0) vs Baljeet Singh (2-2) This past weekend fight fans had the chance to see former Mongolian amateur standout Jargal Otgonjargal make his professional debut, as he took on Indian fighter Baljeet Singh in Seoul, in a scheduled 6 rounder. Sadly, at the age of 33, Otgonjargal is probably too old to make a major impact on the professional ranks, but given his extensive amateur background, and clear ability, there is a chance we could see him mixing in and around the Oriental title scene, if his team are willing to fast track him. On this performance there is a lot to like about him, though in fairness Singh was more of a sacrificial lamb than a real test the hard hitting Mongolian. March 24th 2024 - Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Jin Ha Kim (0-0) vs Byung Do Park (0-0) This past weekend Korean fighters Jin Ha Kim and Byung Do Park clashed in a scheduled 4 rounder at Light Heavyweight, a division that really isn't deep in Asia. As with many all novice bouts their is something of a lack of natural ability and trained skills, especially defensively, but that left the door open for us to see a genuinely brutal and frightening KO that is well worth watching the fight to see. March 24th 2024- Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Shin Jae Kang (0-0) vs Sung Nam Lim (0-0) This past weekend in Seoul fight fans saw an all debutant 4 rounder as Shin Jae Kang and Sung Nam Lim clashed in a bout at a contracted 73KG's (161lbs). As with many novice bouts in Korea there was a lack of boxing IQ here but there was no lack of heart or action, as the two fighters each dug deep looking to win, and begin their career with a 1 in the W column. March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Ju Yeong Jeong (2-0-1, 1) vs Jong Hyun Choi (1-1, 1) This past weekend we got an interesting bout at 154lbs in South Korea as the unbeaten Ju Yeong Jeong clashed with Jong Hyun Choi in a scheduled 4 rounder. The bout saw both men looking for a victory, with some bombs thrown by both fighters. Although not an all out intense war, like we regularly see in South Korea, this bout had a sense of a fight that was tense, with both feeling they had the power to take the other out, but also knew they could be taken out at any moment. March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Do Kyum Kim (0-1) vs Joo Eun Lee (0-0) One thing Korean boxing has given us over the years is thrilling action fighters, and all action fights. We got one such fight this past weekend as the win-less Do Kyum Kim clashed with debuting Joo Eun Lee in Seoul, in a 4 round Bantamweight clash. The bout lacked in terms of technical skills and and ring IQ but made up for it it in intensity, exchanges and brutal back and forth action, giving fans a genuine treat March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Chan Lee (1-0) vs Sung Keun Kang (1-0) This past weekend on a Won Promotions show the unbeaten pairing of Chan Lee and Sung Keun Kang clashed in a 4 rounder. Like many bouts in Korea the two men involved lacked in terms of defense and finese, but made up for it in heart, determination and the desire to exchange bombs in what was a thrilling, action packed and hectic clash with some incredibly exciting back and forth exchanges. March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Sun Woo Jung (0-1) vs Jae Won Yuh (0-1) This past weekend Seoul played host to the latest show from The Won Promotion. One of the more interesting bouts on the show saw Sun Woo Jung take on Jae Won Yuh in a 4 round match up at Super Featherweight. For both men this was their second professional bout, and both men were looking to claim their first win after losses on their debuts. Although not a major bout it was hotly contested, entertaining and a really well matched bout that saw both men showing what they could do, and both men looking better than their 0-1 records suggested. March 24th 2024-Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Seung Hyub Baek (0-0) vs Ji Un Kim (0-0) This past weekend Korean Welterweight debutants Seung Hyub Baek and Ji Un Kim clashed in a scheduled 4 rounder in Seoul. The bout, like many Korean novice bouts, was relatively low in skill but high in action and entertainment as the two men put it all on the line, looking to kick their professional career off with a win. March 24th 2024 - Gwanakgu Hall, Seoul Hyung Joo Kim (2-1, 1) vs Dong Woo Kim (3-1-1, 3) This past weekend The Won Promotion held a card in Seoul. One of the bouts on that card was a 4 round Super Middleweight bout, as novices Hyung Joo Kim and Dong Woo Kim faced off. Coming into this Hyung Joo Kim had been out of the ring for over a year, and had strangely fought one time in each of the last 3 years.
