Shadow Wins

Duane "Shadow" Sheppard was asked to fight on the Evolution Charity Black Tie Event called Fight for a Cause. The night was dedicated to raising funds for research into prostate cancer. Duane took the fight on just three days notice. He fought Kevin Laey from NTG in the only Amatuer Muay Thai fight of the night. Also fighting was Dane "Daddy Cool", Soren Mongkontong and John Wayne Parr. It was a great honour for not only Shadow but our whole club to be invited to such a show. In fact it was a sell out crowd and the cheapest ticket went for $250. I just can't stress what a massive night this was.

 Shadow has been one the clubs most active fighters, and later this year in July he will be rematching "Mighty" Matt McTavish in a WMC 63.5kg Auastralian Title Eleminator. We are also trying ro raise funds to send Shadow to Thailand at the end of this year to train, eat and sleep Muay Thai for a couple of months.

Shadow is a great inspiration to many of our members as he proves with Persistence and Determination you can achieve anything.
