In the afternoon of January 4, the Trigger Boxing Club revealed the plan to expand the gym system in 2023. Specifically, they will open a Trigger Boxing gym in District 4 in April. By September, Trigger Boxing has a gym in District 2, bringing the total number of club facilities to 4.
Earlier in 2022, Trigger Boxing Club had an additional gym in Hanoi, next to the first gym located in Tan Phu District. This is a place to help practitioners to maintain health, as well as gather many athletes who hope to pursue the boxing career, both in Boxing with high achievements and professional boxing.
The two key figures that made the success of Trigger Boxing Club in recent years are coach Trinh Van Tri (Trinh Master) and boxer Tran Van Thao. In recent years, they continuously went to the South to manage the gym system with two establishments located at two heads of the country. This is also a rare club in Vietnam to do this.
Also in 2022, Trigger Boxing Club successfully organized the event of the World IBA belt. In Bantamweight weight, boxer Tran Van Thao defeated Prince Laurio (Philippines) with a punching blow right in the first half. He became the first Vietnamese male boxer to win a world professional boxing belt.
Entering 2023, Tran Van Thao will continue to play the professional boxing. His immediate goal is to successfully protect the World IBA belt, as well as challenge the opponents standing on him. That is the basis for “The Trigger” to conquer other milestones in the future, after the two Asian WBC and IBA World.
