(APRIL 14) Former WBO World
Light Heavyweight Champion Geovana Peres will be making her
kickboxing debut this Friday against IFMA Junior Gold Medalist
and GAMMA World Champion Roezala Su'e.
It was a sad day back in January
this year to find out that New Zealand’s very own World Boxing
Champion Geovana Peres had decided to retire from professional
boxing at the age of 44. But we all knew that she wanted to
accomplish a lot more in her career, however, Covid 19 had held
her back. Personally, I know that she always wanted to try MMA
and Kickboxing, especially since Mayhem Boxing (her boxing gym)
is partnered up with City Lee Gar.
The good thing is because she retired from boxing, it was
announced that she was training to become a kickboxer and in
March it was announced that Geovana will make her kickboxing
debut which will be happening this Friday at Te Atatū Peninsula
Community Centre. You can tell that Geovana is really excited
for her debut, especially with seeing her training videos being
posted online, And the bruises all over her legs from training.
As for her opponent, she will be taking on 20-year-old
well-experienced fighter Roezala Su'e. Interestingly Roezala
Su'e has fought as a corporate boxer before on the undercard of
the first fight of Geovana Peres vs Tessa Tualevao. Which brings
up a future question, will we see the third fight between
Geovana Peres and Tessa Tualevao but this time in Kickboxing.
Roezala Su'e has been in the fight industry since she was a
child and has fought internationally event at a young age. She
won the Gold medal IFMA (Muay Thai) World Championship Langkawi
Malaysia. In 2019 Roezala Su'e went to Singapore to compete for
the GAMMA (MMA) World amateur title and won against the Indian
fighter Divya Nagaraj. So a tough challenge for Geovana Peres
kickboxing debut.
This fight will be happening on the Art of War 14 show.
