13-year-old Chase Brisbane won his third bout in style in a competition in Melbourne\u2019s north-east, defeating a top quality opponent heading off to nationals.<\/p>\n
The rising youngster made the trip to Bulleen but was tasked with an experienced boxer in his class, however the burgeoning talent fought as if he were the fighter in the nationals scene.<\/p>\n
The fight was won after stoppage in the third round, as Brisbane laid three significant blows to the head of his opponent, which at school boys level qualifies for automatic stoppage and the win to the hard-hitter.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe beat him with speed and beat him to the punch,\u201d Harrington said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe won the first and second round clearly and then put an end to it in the third round, which is a massive showing for the young boy.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Mooroopna product has been training at Goulburn Valley Boxing Association under Harrington\u2019s wing for two years, but Harrington said an underdog victory will do wonders for Brisbane\u2019s intrinsic belief.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will take confidence out of a really clear win,\u201d Harrington said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe won it on his own terms, he didn\u2019t just scrape to the line and win by points.<\/p>\n
\u201cGoing forward he can hold his head really high that he won in that fashion against someone going to nationals.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s just got to stick with it now.<\/p>\n
\u201cBoxing is 80 per cent mental, and now he will have the mindset going forward he can compete, and beat, any opponent in front of him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"13-year-old Chase Brisbane won his third bout in style in a competition in Melbourne\u2019s north-east, defeating a top…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":96521,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[64,63,802,85],"class_list":["post-96520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-boxing","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/96521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=96520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=96520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
