Bluewater Boxing Promotions, led by promoter Samir Khan, is set to bring a thrilling night of boxing to Prince Charles Park, Nadi, on September 26. This event marks the first time that a boxing match is being held at this location, with Khan urging fans to attend in strong numbers, emphasizing the affordability of tickets for this action-packed evening.
The event aims to support grassroots boxing by featuring young talent, including participants as young as 13 and 15 from local schools such as Nadi Muslim College. By providing a platform for young boxers, Khan hopes to nurture the next generation of Fijian boxing talent.
The main event will showcase a Cruiserweight Championship fight between Savenaca Naliva and Alifereti Kauyaca. Additionally, an exciting highlight of the evening will be the Masa South Pacific Light Heavyweight Title fight, contested in Fiji for the first time, with Bryan “The Punisher” Roberts going head-to-head with Kolinio “The Executioner” Luvelolo. Both fighters are known for their powerful and skilled performances, promising a match that will captivate the audience.
Khan’s previous promotions have seen notable interest both domestically and internationally. The success of earlier events reflects a burgeoning enthusiasm for boxing in the region, as well as an increase in ticket sales. Consistent with prior events, all necessary medical protocols, including drug testing, have been put in place to ensure the safety of participants.
This boxing event reinforces the vibrant and growing boxing culture in Fiji. It not only presents a chance for established boxers to showcase their skills but also provides emerging talent with an invaluable opportunity to step into the limelight. As such, the event is set to energize the local community and propel the development of boxing in Fiji.
The blend of youth involvement, international attention, and local pride underscores the promising future of boxing in the region, paving the way for more such events in the future. With the stage set for an electrifying night, fans and aficionados alike are encouraged to join the celebration of boxing in Fiji.
