Starting from Martial Arts, Winona Karamoy Finds "Hockey" in the World of Boxing Influencers

JAKARTA - Winona Karamoy's journey, the younger sister of actress Davina Karamoy in the world of fighting sports, did not start from the boxing ring. Long before that, he had first known the art of Muay Thai.

Initially, Winona practiced pure Muay Thai for health and martial arts purposes.

"At first I did Muay Thai just for cardio," he said in the Cibubur area, Friday, January 16.

He also felt that as a woman, having basic martial arts skills was a must.

"From us as girls we also have to have basic self-defense," he explained.

After practicing Muay Thai for some time, he began to glance at the world of boxing. Just like Muay Thai, at first he only used it as a means to maintain fitness.

"At first I was just joking because I wanted to lose weight and get fit," he said.

However, his "hoki" actually came from the world of boxing. After trying one match, offers to fight in various influencer boxing events began to flood him.

"It's just that when the match is over, many people are asking, thank God many people are asking," he said.

He also realized that boxing influencers not only provide financial benefits, but also significantly boost their popularity.

With his expertise in the world of boxing, Winona Karamoy himself will show his abilities in the Phoenix Combat Sport Vol. 2 event, where the participants consist of a range of influencers, ranging from Cimoy, Hegyzy, Mey Fang Ling, Wilda, Widya, Adam and Abdi.

Apart from the influencer party, Phoenix Combat Sport Vol. 2 will also feature national boxing athletes who played in the 2025 Thailand Sea Games yesterday.

In the implementation of Phoenix Combat Sport Vol. 2 will feature as many as 62 boxing match parties, consisting of several categories including:

1. Amateur Fighter Compete

2. Junior Knockout Series

3. Fight Night

4. Camp to Camp

5. Elite Fight

In this event, Winona will compete with 'Queen of TikTok' Cimoy, then Hegyzy against Meyfangling, Wilda against Widya and Adam against Abdi. For ticket purchases can be purchased at Wootix or livestreaming on YouTube at kashap.
