Part 2/9:
While Jurogan's name was initially brought to attention by friends like Vinnie Shorman, a notable figure in Muay Thai, and Liam Harrison, a Muay Thai world champion, it was only until his performance last Saturday that the broader world truly witnessed his talent. His journey from sparring in 2018 at Wild Card Gym to standing victorious in a major bout underscores a relentless pursuit of greatness.
Conquering Underdog Status
In his recent fight against Tia Female, Jurogan was a massive underdog with odds at 7-1. Coming into the bout undefeated, he had not yet faced an opponent of Tia's caliber. This heavyweight matchup, coming after a series of impressive wins for Tia, was seen by many as a routine step for the opponent. But the underdog had other plans.
