On Friday, June 1oth, the Revolution Self Defense fight team entered a Muay Thai bout in New York City. The Friday Night Fights event has been gaining steam in NYC for the past few years and this event was the third consecutive sold out show and the first that could possibly be televised.

In an exciting three round battle, the Revolution Self Defense fighter emerged as the victor via unanimous decision. Our fighter executed his game plan perfectly by using lateral footwork coupled with rapid fire hand combinations ending with round kicks. His opponent, fighting in his home town, was game and utilized a counter fighting strategy. He showed good timing and striking power but was unable to string together any combinations due to our fighters footwork and pressure fighting tactics.

The crowd and fans loved the fight and could be heard screaming every time either fighter landed a strong blow. In the end the judges scored the fight as follows: 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28 all for the fighter from Revolution Self Defense.

Everyone who has trained with our fighter can share in this victory. Holding focus mitts, thai pads and other training time all helped prepare us for this event. A very special thanks goes out to Coach Kiley and our out of town crew from D.C. who also were a big part of our training camp!
