CAPE TOWN – While growing up, Amy Visser never thought she would willingly get inside a ring to fight someone.
“I agreed and suddenly it was all happening. I loved it. I finished the fight via T.K.O. in the first round,” says Amy.“I obviously love Muay Thai as it is at the heart of our gym, however, there were not many Muay Thai events in South Africa, so we worked more on Kickboxing in the beginning,” adds the Milnerton Ridge-based athlete.
“I beat a multiple-time world champ who was significantly heavier than me. “It was tough but I came out with the W,” she says. The lack of fights left Amy frustrated, and over the course 2016 to 2017 Amy took a break to ease the frustration.“I eventually only fought again in April 2019 at PFC13 , a fight which I unfortunately lost against now EFC-signed professional - Christine Wolmarans.
