Duarn Vue Fighting For Recognition at FloBoxing Fight Night
Duarn Vue Fighting For Recognition at FloBoxing Fight Night
Undefeated Hmong fighter Duarn Vue is ready to make a statement Friday, Jan. 20, at FloBoxing Fight Night.
There are few Hmong fighters in the United States and arguably none as accomplished as Madison, Wisconsin's Duarn "The Storm" Vue.
Sporting an undefeated record of 10-0-2 and quickly gaining the attention from the boxing world, Vue looks to impress in his first nationally broadcast fight when he takes on Iowa's Lance Williams (7-6) this Friday night at FloBoxing Fight Night at Grand Casino Hinckley.
Vue's story is a unique one, and he says the support he gets from the Hmong community in the United States is huge as he continues to grow and develop. He'll count on their support this weekend to make a splash and take his career to the next level.
"I was born in a war-torn country," Vue told FloBoxing. "I was a few months old when my family decided to escape to Thailand. During, my mother and father had to make a decision to leave me in the jungle because my crying would give us away. We stayed in Thailand until I was 3 years old, then we came to the U.S, where I grew up in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. I moved to Madison, Wisconsin, going on four years (ago).
"Hmong people are very cultured people. We are spread out around the world. There are approximately 500,000 in the US and about 10,000,000 in China and many more around the world. No matter what, we all connect with each other. They already rally behind me. We expect a nice following for this show, but so many are anxious for what I have in store in April."
Behind Vue's success is trainer and manager Murid Muhammad, who runs "Supreme Hits Boxing," which is quickly becoming one of the top stables for talent in the Midwest.
"We are actually two companies: Supreme Hits Boxing LLC and Supreme Hits Promotions LLP," Muhammad said. "We began on January 10 of 2000. We first began to train and develop amateurs to compete on a high level and carry out our vision and mission. The vision is to become world leaders in the cause for change. Our mission is to make champions in and out of the ring.
"Supreme Hits Boxing LLC is the company that trains and manages our athletes, while Supreme Hits Promotions LLP is our promotional company, and we have done something that hasn't been done before and that is give certain fighters signed with us a percentage share of the company. This makes them partners on the promotional side. The late, great Muhammad Ali said to us we were the only ones truly walking in his footsteps. "
Vue won't be the only Supreme Hits fighter featured Jan. 20 on FloBoxing.tv. Deonte Wilson of Milwaukee, WI (5-1) will face Minnesota's Delorien Caraway in a crossroads border battle fight that has many fans talking.
"I know he is a tough Minnesota fighter with quick hands," Wilson said. "He likes to put on a show for the crowd, [and he is] a good fighter. What you can expect from me is skills. I will put my skills on display on January 20. "
