An invincible perspective of the super medium weight Tommy Hyde
Published
2 years agoon
Melbourne, Australia -In his 10 professional fights so far the undefeated Irish perspective of the super medium medium weight Tommy “Governor” Hyde (10-0, 7 KO), currently preparing for his fight with April 11 in Australia, decided to fight only three times in his family Ireland, because he likes to travel.
25-year-old Hyde will face Anuara Mlawa (8-2, 4 KO) from Tanzania in an octa-like fight for “SLB Fight Night”, presented by Sam Labruny in Melbourne Pavilion. Hyde fans around the world will be able to watch his fight live http://streems.com.au/.
Before flying from the hometown of Cork in Ireland to Australia, Hyde gathered 47,064 both ways in the United States: Greater Boston, and once in Mohegan Sun, Uncasville, Connecticut, Redwood City, Kalifornia and Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Add another 10,827 miles both ways to Cork to Melbourne and back, Hyde is really an Irish road warrior. And these almost 60,000 miles do not even include additional miles that traveled to many training camps in the United States and Great Britain.
Why fight in the middle of the world in Australia?
“I have many friends living in Australia and we knew that there was a huge Irish population,” Hyde explained. “So we decided to fight and build fans here. As an amateur, in places such as South Africa, Canada, America and Russia to mention only a few, but I never had the opportunity to fight in Australia. I am very much, for example.
Hyde competed in over 100 amateur matches. He was a 9-time national finalist, he reached the quarter-finals of World Junior Championships in 2015, he won the Hararingey Box Cup 2019 and is a 3-time gold medalist Celtic Box Cup.
“Wherever you are going in the world,” Hyde added, “you will find an Irish bar because the Irish people are everywhere. We support our own and do not matter where I am fighting, it seems to me that I receive brilliant support from local Irish people.
“I love traveling and I love to fight, so the possibility of making both during one journey is like hitting two birds with one stone. I get such a valuable fight experience around the world, and when I undertake on the world stage, I think that it made him stop well.”
Tommy’s father/manager, Gary Hyde, believes that his son’s experiences fighting all over the world will pay off in a not too distant future.
“I believe that fighting away from home will become Tommy when he fights in major fights,” said Gary. “He is not alien to great programs because he has participated in huge programs for nine years. The brighter the lights, the better it will work. He does not fight with the additional advantage of being in the main corner, which will also bring him benefits when he is in great fighting.”

Tsarukyan is open to fighting Alexander
Volkanovski, provided
Ultimate Fighting Championship gold is at stake.
Volkanovski (29-4) defended the featherweight title with a
technical knockout victory over Movsar
Evloev at
UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi before expressing interest in returning to
lightweight. With champion Justin
Gaethje uncertain about his future, Volkanovski offered to face
Tsarukyan (24-3) for the vacant title if Gaethje retires.
Arman Tsarukyan reminds Alexander Volkanovski how Islam
Makhachev rematch ended
Tsarukyan said the championship matters more to him than the
opponent.
“I'm ready for everyone,†Tsarukyan told Yavuz Saynomo. “For me, it
doesn't matter who I'm gonna fight; I just want to fight for the
title.â€
Volkanovski has expressed confidence that he can counter
Tsarukyan's wrestling and avoid being held down. Tsarukyan
responded by recalling the Australian's knockout loss to Islam
Makhachev.
“He said Islam Makhachev cannot knock him out, too,†Tsarukyan
added.
Volkanovski has twice challenged Makhachev for the lightweight
championship. He lost their first meeting by unanimous decision
before Makhachev finished their rematch with a head kick and
follow-up punches.
Tsarukyan remains confident that his next bout will be for the
title. If Gaethje retires, “The Batman†expects to compete for the
vacant belt.
“I have a title fight next,†Tsarukyan reiterated. “Either Justin
Gaethje. If he is retired, someone else.â€
