Blake Minto
I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Toronto based boxer Blake Minto, who recently claimed the WBC Australasia Welterweight title in a thrilling 10-round bout against Steve Gago. The match took place at HBF Stadium in Perth, and despite Steve Gago enjoying the home crowd advantage, Blake, known as "The Beast from the East", clinched victory to bring home the belt with a unanimous points decision win. The match was nothing short of inspiring. Over the course of 10 electrifying rounds, Blake exhibited not only his technical prowess but also his strategic acumen. Each round was a testament to his relentless work ethic as he faced a formidable opponent with poise and resilience. Blake has truly made his mark in the boxing world, claiming a swathe of titles throughout his professional career including being a two-division world champion, holding the WBF, WBF International, IBO Asia Pacific and New South Wales Super Lightweight titles. His achievements are not just a reflection of his abilities as a boxer, but also of his unwavering dedication to training and his mental resilience. Congratulations on your well-earned triumph.
