It has been reported that the Myanmar Traditional Boxing Challenge, which will be hosted by Lethwei Journey Group, will be held at Theinbyu Boxing Hall in Yangon at 1 pm on 23 October.
Shwe Aunglan winner Saw Ba Hein will face Golden Belt Champion Saw Shwe Lay and Golden Belt Champion Win Htun will take on Thura Ye Aung in the challenging fights.
Saw June (Nagar Marn) will fight against Saw William (Doh Yoe Yar) in the other challenge.
Meanwhile, Saw Wun Chone will meet Saw Kayin in a special fight.
There will also be seven bouts for newcomers.
“This tournament has a regular Saturday talk show about traditional boxing. In that Saturday conversation, the new generation of traditional boxing was brought out, and 360Sport separated Yangon-based events from the Yangon-based discussion.
“Because of that, we gathered together those who thought about the traditional boxing event and formed two groups for the traditional boxing journey. The group has taken responsibility.
“That is why we are offering new generation events, special events, and demonstrations to meet the audience who come to watch in a different way than others,” said event organizer Ko Oscar.
The tourney will be broadcast live on the Lethwei Journey Facebook page and 360 Sports YouTube Channel, and tickets are set at K5,000 and K10,000. — Bala Soe/GNLM
