Get on the hype train because we’re telling you now that Ridhwan is the real deal
“A KNOCKOUT IN THE NINTH ROUND,” Muhamad Ridhwan “The Chosen Wan” Ahmad, Singapore’s most successful boxer to date, confidently declares. “Body shot,” he predicts, delivering a left hook in the air, the weapon in his arsenal that he hopes will bring Koos Sibiya to his knees at The Roar of Singapore III. If his 35-year-old opponent does not get up before the count, Ridhwan will become the International Boxing Organisation Intercontinental champion.
The belt will take pride of place beside the Universal Boxing Organisation World Super Featherweight belt that he won earlier this year, knocking out Fadhili Majiha in spectacular fashion after being close to losing the bout.
Training at Mayweather’s Gym
To prepare for his biggest fight yet, Ridhwa trained at Mayweather Boxing Club (MBC) for a few weeks in September with some of the best fighters and coaches in the world.
“Ringstar Management and PSB Academy sponsored the stint,” Ridhwan shares.
