September 25, 2021
(SEPT 25) TAMPA, FL– On
October 10th, at the Banquet Masters in Clearwater,
Florida. Simona Sarpa, who relocated from Italy, will make
her pro debut Saturday, on October 16th against Amarilis Adorno,
1-10-0 (0KO), of Ventura, California. Adorno has faced some very
tough competition previously when fighting the likes of Seniesa
Estrada, Noemi Bosques, on three different occasions. She may
have a 1-10 record but her experience in fighting a debuter may
come in as past valuable experience.
Originally from Naples, Italy, Sarpa dabbled with boxing in
Italy but the sport’s lack of popularity in her area eliminated
the possibility of competing. Sarpa relocated to Tampa in 2017
and shortly after moving stateside, she begun training at Fight
Fitness Center.
Sarpa trains each morning, with evenings dedicated to her
critically acclaimed Italian restaurant Viva Napoli. Although
she’s had 10 amateur fights and successfully balances boxing
with owning a business, Sarpa was hungry for more.

9/21/2019 - Amateur fight of Sarpa
In the press release Simona said, “I wanted to turn pro because the amateur tournaments I competed
in were three rounds, with each round only lasting a minute and
a half,” said Sarpa. “I’m a technical boxer so those fights
weren’t giving me enough time to showcase my skills. Most of
all, I love the sport of boxing so turning pro is a great
opportunity.”
Sarpa also said that she had watched some of Adorno's recent
fights and that she and her team worked on a strategy....Boxing
folks will definitely see what they have planned to do with the
much more experience veteran boxer of 14 years!
According to the release their
four round bout is part of a 10-fight card, and presented by Fire Fist Boxing
in association with Pahlavan Promotions. Tickets can be
purchased at bit.ly/boxing-tickets or by calling 727-525-3159.
