Australian Super Welterweight Jordan Laruccia, still unbeaten, steps back into the ring on March 1 as a headline act at Thunderdome 45. Fresh from a standout win on September 1, where he convincingly beat Fano Kori for the Australasian Super Welterweight Title, Laruccia’s performance was a highlight of Australian boxing last year.
Boxing legend Danny Green, who supported Laruccia last time, praised his ability to entertain and excel, especially given his lack of amateur background compared to Kori’s extensive experience. Green highlighted Laruccia’s commitment and self-belief as key factors in his success.
After a break, Laruccia is set to face Wellem Reyk from Indonesia, a seasoned fighter with a recent win in Singapore and a history of international fights. Reyk is determined to test Laruccia, stating he’s in it to challenge him fully.
Laruccia respects his opponents but promises an intense battle come March 1, aiming to leave a mark. His preparation with Big Rig’s Gym continues, building on the groundwork laid for the Kori fight. Laruccia feels in top shape and eager to demonstrate his progress in the ring.
With his sights set on victory, Laruccia and his team, including sharp manager Tony Tolj, are planning future challenges, eyeing fights across Australia and internationally to climb the Super Welterweight ranks.
Starting his boxing journey just five years ago, Laruccia’s rapid rise is a testament to his hard work and dedication, facing bigger challenges and aiming for higher rewards as his career advances.
