Rak-Su star AshleyRaksu has been reflecting on his boxing journey after he shocked King Kenny at the weekend
He may have shot to fame as a winner of the X-Factor but Ashley Fongho is now causing a big stir in the boxing ring after claiming a shock victory – and he has no intention of stopping there.
“We were grafting for 14 weeks in a fight camp and it was gruelling, all over London sparring in different clubs but he caused a massive upset and the whole You Tube world, social media world has gone crazy about it.” The Watford-born internet celebrity formed promotions company Misfits Boxing in 2021 and it is now the biggest platform in the sport, signing a five-year deal with global sports entertainment outfit DAZN in January which will see shows staged across the world.
Asked if he surprised himself in his new sporting venture, Ashley responded: “No to be completely honest, purely because I know how much work has gone into it. Luke has been involved with South Oxhey Boxing Club since he was eight and is now one of its head coaches, having also established his own coaching brand L.G Boxing.
The 30-year-old is acutely aware there remains a lot of scepticism about crossover boxing - and admits his views have changed since becoming involved - but he believes this is largely due to a lack of understanding about what’s involved. “I appreciate as well now the power of social media. It is such a big presence and what is amazing about this world is there’s so many characters. If everyone had a Tyson Fury in their sport they’d be flying. If every boxer had a bit of Tyson Fury’s DNA they’d be flying, but you get so many great boxers that are overlooked because of their personalities.
