Team Point Blank’s Jermaine Haughton, Nino ‘The Panino’ Lazzara, and Saman ‘Ego Boy’ Mohammadzadeh competed in last Saturday’s Fall Fury Thai Boxing event at Kombat Arts in Mississauga. 

In the first match of the evening Nino faced off against Richard Parker of Phoenix Fight Club in Hamilton, losing by decision. Despite his opponent having had previous fight experience Nino put up a great fight, making his opponent earn every point of his win. 

This was followed up by a very close split decision loss by Saman against Mark Mendoza of the hosting club, Kombat Arts in Mississauga. This was one of the most exciting bouts of the evening. Saman controlled much of the bout with amazing clinch fighting, and a very strong kicking game. However, the decision of the judges fell in favour of his opponent.

Despite having the most memorable ring entrance of the evening Jermaine was defeated later in the evening by Denis Luu of TKO, in Kitchener. Jermaine effectively used his longer reach to give Denis a good fight, but his opponent’s kicking game and effective use of the leg catch earned him the victory.
