Junior Warrior, Big Stage: Shazhaib Shines at Muaythai Mayhem in Crawley
On Saturday 21st June, SN Combat Academy’s rising junior talent stepped into the spotlight at the explosive Muaythai Mayhem Show in Crawley — an event known for hosting some of the UK’s toughest and most respected fighters.
In a bold move, two of our junior warriors took on the challenge of Adult N-Class Muay Thai bouts under full-contact rules: 5 x 1.5-minute rounds, against experienced adults from elite gyms.
💥 Shazhaib “Shazmania” vs Ernest Amponash – Precision, Power & Pure Skill
First up representing SN Combat was none other than Shazhaib “Shazmania”, who faced 24-year-old Ernest Amponash from the highly respected Raptors Gym.
Despite the age and experience gap, Shazhaib entered the ring with confidence — and delivered a performance that left the crowd stunned.
Showcasing a fresh, unpredictable style, Shazhaib embodied the SN way: dynamic, explosive, and tactically sharp. Strikes came from every angle — kicks, punches, and knees all landed with pinpoint precision. His movement was fluid, his composure unshaken, and his timing immaculate.
As the final bell rang, there was no doubt. Shazhaib claimed a dominant Unanimous Decision victory, proving that age and size don’t matter when skill, heart, and training take centre stage.
🏆 Another Statement Made by SN Combat’s Next Generation
It was a proud moment not just for Shazhaib, but for the entire SN Combat family. Facing a seasoned adult and coming out on top speaks volumes about his dedication, mindset, and the level of coaching behind him.
We’re excited to see what’s next for Shazhaib “Shazmania” — a young warrior with a bright future ahead.
Stay tuned. This is only the beginning.
