It is Max’s second time fighting at world level, having competed at the junior worlds in Croatia two years ago. Sam Rist will be representing his country abroad for the first time. Both boys were recipients of $1500 each from the Cornerstone Trust, plus some monetary assistance from the Sports Minister, and a sum from local fundraising. Max and Sam would like to say a ‘huge thank you’ to the Te Awamutu community for the support shown in the donation of raffle prizes. Te Awamutu’s Rick Dobson and Neil Fynn have been in Sheffield officiating as coach and second coach respectively for the New Zealand kickboxing team against Great Britain. The national team includes Georgie and Wiki Tutaki, who train out of Te Awamutu Phantom Kickboxing, as well as running their own kickboxing gym in Te Kuiti. The Tutakis are trained by Dobson and Fynn. Wiki lost his fight on points against Marty ‘Mad Dog’ Wilson over 10 rounds for the Intercontinental Title on Sunday. Wilson fought here in Te Awamutu two years ago, winning a close contest against local Joel Nadin for the WFKKO world title. Wilson is a four-times world champion. Georgie Tutaki went the full 12 rounds, losing on points to six-times world champ Kerry-Louise Norbury for the World Professional Title.
