10 days of life the way it should be!

Imagine 10 days in sunny Kenya, just as Denmark is entering the depths of winter! Now imagine spending half the time training with a group of like-minded boxing enthusiasts, and half the time relaxing at the pool or taking in the local tourist sights. Live healthy for all ten days, work out every morning or retreat from the heat of the sun into the gym to work on conditioning and boxing training.

The Boxing

Come along on the trip and you’ll be improving your skills under the careful eye of the biggest name in modern Kenyan boxing: Ashira Oure.

Every morning we will do the traditional boxing workout involving cardio, abs work and going hard on punching bags and pads. Add in shadow boxing and weight training and we’ve made sure this active safari lives up to its name. We’ll also visit local boxing clubs, including Ashira Oure’s mother club, Transfix.

The Sightseeing

There’s something for everyone on this trip! It’ll be nice and warm, so you can go snorkeling – even swim with the dolphins. Part of the time will be spent visiting historical sites and other places of interest. Like the biggest crocodile farm in Africa – Mamba Villager – with over 3000 crocodiles. We’ll also be taking a trip to Mombasa’s historic Fort Jesus, built by the Portuguese in the 18th century. And you’ll be able to enjoy a Tamarind evening Dhow featuring traditional Kenyan dancers.

On the safari side, we will be visiting Tsavo East (http://www.africanmeccasafaris.com/kenya/safaris/parks/tsavoeast.asp) – the largest and oldest park in Kenya, which covers an area of 11,747 square kilometers and is famed for the man-eating lions now safely on display in American museums. You’ll see the Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, rhino and buffalo. It’s a wild-side trip that attracts tourists from around the globe to see, smell and hear these animals for an unforgettable lifetime experience.

25/06/08 ASHIRA: ROBERT LARSEN HAS NOT PAID UP FOR THE FIGHT!!

IBA light middleweight champion Evans “The African Warrior” Ashira (29-3, 15 KOs) is furious with Danish promoter Robert Larsen who staged the Copenhagen-based Kenyans April 19 title fight against former European champion Mahmadou Thiam, a bout Ashira won by sixth round knockout.

“This guy is such a crook! It’s been more than two months now, and Larsen hasn’t paid me for the fight yet. He keeps coming up with all sorts of excuses, and now I have had enough! I have been very patient with him, but he is so full of B.S. it’s unbelievable, and he should shut his fat mouth”, says the former WBA and WBO world title-challenger.

Ashira, who is a freelancer with no promotional or managerial ties to Larsen, also reveals that he was lead to believe by the promoter that the Thiam-bout would be for the IBO Intercontinental title, and only found out afterwards that this was a lie and that in reality it was for the much less prestigious UBO I/C bauble.

On top of that, the fighter has still not received the belt he won, as the promoter has not paid for it yet.
Larsen should stop running around playing big-shot when he can’t even pay the boxers who fight on his shows. He is a sad joke, and I can only warn anybody who is considering doing business with him to think again. I know for a fact that I am not the only one he owes money”.
Ashira is taking legal action to finally get his purse!

14/06/08 ASHIRA OURE HELPS KESSLER WITH SPARRING

IBA Junior middleweight champion of the world, the African Warrior, Evans Ashira Oure ( (29-3, 15 KOs)reached out to former WBC/WBA world super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler and gave him some quality sparring leading up to his upcoming fight on June 21 against Dmitry Sartison for the vacant WBA title.

The sparring was really good and just what Kessler needed to get sharp for his fight, as both he and Ashira are very established and at the very top among professional boxers in Denmark. Ashira has sparred with many of the best fighters in the world, including world champions Floyd Mayweather and Arthur Abraham, and, like Kessler, he also fought the legendary Joe Calzaghe, loosing on points after twelve rounds

Ashira stepped in on short notice to do the rounds with Kessler when his acting sparringpartner was said to not be able to manage by himself, and Ashira is happy to have helped his friend and at the same time be able to feel his own level.

04/08 ASHIRA  COMES BACK IN CLASS BY KAYOS THIAM IN 6TH

19.4.2008: In a battle of former world tittle- challengers, Evans " The African Warrior" Ashira ( 29-3, 15 KOs) Knocked out former European champion Mamadou Thiam (42-7, 39 KOs) in round six of a scheduled twelve on Saturday night(April 19th) in Frederikssund, Denmark. Ashira, a promotional free agent who once went twelve hard rounds with Joe Calzaghe at super middleweight,is now back at 154lbs,and is looking to get in line for a shot at one of the four major world tittles this year.

The fight started on even terms with both fighters having their share of success, and with the experiencing some difficulties in establishing his rhythm, but as the rounds progressed, Ashira started taking over and applied more and more pressure on Thiam. From the 4th round it was apparent that the Frenchman was getting less and less dangerous, and looked like a matter of time before Ashira would be able to mount his final attack.

 The end come 1.05 of the sixth round, when Ashira pinned Thiam against the ropes and connected with hard body-shots before going to the head and landing two crushing left hooks which send Thiam down for the full count. It was an impressive finish which showed that there is a lot left in the Copenhagen-resident.

Ashira went through knee sugery after winning the IBA World Title last September, and his first back. He hopes that one of the big names in light middleweight division will be next:

 " i couldn't get my Rhythm going in the first few rounds, but i am satisfied with my overall performance. There are always questions when you come back after hard injury, but i think i did not take easy fight back, and feel like i will be ready to take on anybody in the world next time out" said Ashira, and continued:
 " I am a promotional free agent, so there are nobody holding me down. If any of the World Champions out there are looking for live opponent who is easy to deal with, let their people should call my manager Jan Andersen. I'm ready to roll with anybody! "
