Venue The Box, Ambassador Hotel, Sukhumvit Soi 11, Bangkok, Thailand
Date August 26, 2023
About The impressive and fast-rising partnership between XBC Sportech and The Box Thailand has put together another fantastic card of championship boxing.
Heading the night’s action at the intimate and atmospheric Ambassador Hotel in Bangkok will be WBC Asian super-bantamweight king Jon Jon Jet defending against unbeaten home favourite Woraweth Nawanetiwong.
Indonesia’s Jon Jon Jet brings a surge of momentum back to the Thai capital as he builds towards a world ranking – but Woraweth, a spotless 5-0 at just 18 years old, is firmly focused on transitioning from prospect to champion.
It’s Indonesia vs Thailand in the co-feature, too, as Ilham Loeisa puts his WBA Asian welterweight belt on the line against the dangerous and ambitious Chan Sala, and as is typical for this promotion and venue, the undercard is stacked with talent representing the future of the sport in Southeast Asia.
