In just his 2nd pro fight, Australia's 25-year-old Noongar warrior Alex Winwood (1-0, 1 KO) of Mandurah City in Perth takes with iron discipline the biggest risk to his boxing career when he trades blows against far more-experienced Indonesian Tibo Monabesa (21-1-2, 8 KO's) on Friday, March 3, at Northbridge's Metro City in Western Australia.
For Alex Winwood - a former Tokyo 2020 Olympian for his native Australia - his 10-rounder against the Tangerang southpaw will most definitely be his toughest mission to-date, and how will it unfold?
Would it be too much of a bite for the younger, promising Alex to chew?
His many fans in Perth and Western Australia think Alex Winwood is ready for this one, and even tougher challenges in the 108-pound division.
The exciting event on March 3 continues the fighting legacy of Australia's popular "Thunderdome Boxing Series," which for years have thrilled fans in The Land Down Under.
The show is promoted by Perth's man of boxing Tony Tolj of Dragon Fire Boxing live on FITE.TV. Tickets available at Megatix Australia.
