Dragon Fight League recruited 40 boxers to play in the formula of 55kg, 57kg, 60kg, 64kg, 69kg, and the final round, semi -finals and final rounds to find the owner for the prestigious championship of the tournament.
In the press conference, director Johnny Tri Nguyen shared more about why not recruiting female fighters: “The Organizing Committee of Dragon Fight looked at the number of boxers registered to play in Lion Championship that the women's weight class was quite small.
If female boxers who want to register for the tournament can come directly to Lion Championship and do not need an extra prize like Dragon Fight League. The Organizing Committee also realized that there were no 8 fighters playing for a belt at the present time, but in the future, if the number of female boxers registered increased, the organizers would open more. ”
Besides, the first season of Dragon Fight League does not have the appearance of foreign boxers because of the complicated procedure papers. The tournament wishes to create the best conditions for Vietnamese boxers to have the opportunity to be more and more rubbed.
The MMA movement has only developed stronger than a year, so that compared to other countries with a long -standing MMA background, we have to race a lot. Dragon Fight League wants Vietnamese boxers to have more opportunities to be rubbed so that they can reach bigger tournaments,” director Johnny Tri Nguyen shared.
Dragon Fight League started receiving boxers' registration documents from June 6 to June 16, 2023. On Sunday this week, on June 11, the Dragon Fight Organizing Committee recruited fighters directly at Lien Phong Dojo.
