JAKARTA, lightning.com– XBC Sportech CEO Urgyen Rinchen Sim in Tangerang, Banten said on Thursday that Jon Jon Jet and Ilham Leoisa have seen rapid development since being formed by Canada’s David John Treharnem.

Jon Jon Jet and Ilham undergo intense training for the WBC Asia title match against their respective opponents at World Siam Stadium, Bangkapi, Bangkok, Thailand on October 14.

Jon will face Yuttichai Wannawong for the vacant WBC Asia Continental super bantamweight title, while Ilham will face Poramin Saengpak for a similar vacant title in the welterweight division.

“Jon will face an experienced opponent and has a much better rating. We are doing this so that our boxer can improve his abilities and mentality,” said Simon, the nickname of Urgyen Rinchen Sim.

“If you win from a better boxer, your ranking will also increase, so later on he will be ready to fight at the highest level. This is all a process that must be followed because we don’t want it to be instant. , ” he said.

Jon and Ilham have been in training camp with Davis since the third week of September. David wasted no time and immediately galvanized two Indonesian boxers with physical and technical training.

“When I arrived Jon and Ilham weren’t ready to fight for the title. They wanted to work hard and showed a big improvement in the second week,” David said.

“With the current conditions, I’m sure they will have no trouble going eight rounds and beating their opponents,” he continued.

During the prep, David gave Jon and Ilham a Spartan training regimen to increase their stamina and also improve their fighting techniques and strategies against their opponents.

The Canadian coach admitted that he knows Thai boxers very well as he has lived in the land of the white elephant for more than 30 years and has also trained six boxers who became world champions there.

Jon also admitted that he got a lot of new ideas from David, especially in terms of technique and strategy, which made him feel more confident going into the title chase.

“The first week of training was very hard. But afterwards it was very beneficial. With this exercise, I am more confident to face the game later. It’s just a question of how I apply this that the coach gave me during training,” he said.

Ilham felt the same. The boxer with the rank of chief soldier of TNI-AU said he was ready to bring the championship belt back to Indonesia.

“After returning from Pattaya last July, I immediately prepared for Dirgantara Boxing Camp. Then the last three weeks I trained with the XBC Sportech team and coach David,” Ilham said.

“We have prepared everything, including watching the footage of the opponent’s match and studying his fighting style. I am ready to win the WBC Asia Continental belt,” he concluded.
