Ben Lewis pulled off a big win at PWPIII on Saturday September 3. Fighting against Peter Day, Ben was assertive in the start, working into top position, dropping some solid ground and pound. He then got Peter’s back and coaxed out a tap. A heap of Double Dragon crew were there to cheer Ben on, it was great to watch.
Ben Chan has been boxing in the World Police & Fire Games in New York. he just missed out on the final in a controversial fight (he even dropped the guy)! A bronze medal at this level is still awesome mate, we’re very proud of you!
Just in… Shane Greenwood picked up 4th place in the Camden Strongman (just missing out on 3rd by 2 points)! Good on you Shane.
Another busy few weeks at Double Dragon! Manny is fighting for the CFC title on August 26th against American Jesse Juarez. Manny is training his guts out and can’t wait to get in the cage and bring home the belt!
We’re also in the midst of another PWP show, this time it’s PWPIII at the UNSW Roundhouse on September 3rd. The show is headlined by Richie Vas vs. Justin Wong (Hawaii). Big Ben Lewis is matched on the card, along with a bunch of our friends from TP Gym. Get your tickets here or check out the website.
Bernardo ‘Trekko’ Magalhaes became the first person to retain the CFC lightweight title when he beat Rob Lisita over 5 rounds last Friday. Great work Trekko!

Bernardo ‘Trekko’ Magalhaes will head to Southport Sharks in Queensland (June 3) to defend his CFC title against ‘Ruthless’ Rob Lisita. Trekko recently returned from camp in Brazil, and is very hungry to jump back into the cage and mix it up. This fight has war written all over it!
