Capital Punishment 72

What a night to remember for each and every fighter that stepped up.

We’d love to shout out our own lads who all spend countless hours preparing themselves and working together to reach their goals.

But we’d also like to show some love to our opponents, without who our Capital Punishments wouldn’t exist and our fighters wouldn’t get the chance to step up and take the risk.

Looking forward to seeing you all again at Capital Punishment 73

Fight sports are often seen as individual pursuits by those outside the game, but on the inside, we know they are true team sports. Behind every fighter stands a dedicated team, and beyond that team is the incredible fight community that supports and pushes us forward.

Our opponents are often our greatest teachers, and we are fortunate to share this journey with such a passionate and supportive group of people.

In fight promotions, challenges are inevitable—injuries, illness, and last-minute changes can reshape the fight card. But what truly defines our sport is the fighters and teams who step up when it matters most.

For this weekend’s show, we are incredibly grateful to two warriors and their teams for taking fights on short notice, ensuring their opponents still get the chance to step into the ring and grow from the experience.

A huge shoutout to Kryan Stone from Kapiti Thaiboxing, who is making his debut and has stepped up at short notice—massive respect to him, Adam, and the whole team.

Much appreciation as well to Dre Flavell from the legendary South Island Lee Gar, who has jumped in with just a week's notice.

Your dedication and warrior spirit embody what this sport is all about. Thank you both! As always, the show goes on, and what a fight card we have ahead…
