🥊 HAMILTON… WHO’S READY TO STEP INTO THE RING? 🥊
RUMBLE ON THE RIVER is coming to GLOBOX Arena, Claudelands on Saturday 28 November 2026 and we’re looking for local people brave enough to be part of the action!
Headlined by this will be a huge Black Tie Boxing Fight Night bringing together sport, business and the wider Hamilton community for an unforgettable evening.
Our undercard is already starting to take shape, with former Chiefs players, local businesspeople, real estate agents, lawyers, sporting personalities and a few very recognisable faces preparing to pull on the gloves.
Now we want to hear from YOU.
You don’t need to be a rugby player.
You don’t need to be a boxer.
You don’t need any previous fight experience.
We’re looking for everyday men and women from around our community who want to challenge themselves, get seriously fit, tick something off the bucket list and be part of an incredible night for a great cause.
Every participant will complete a professionally managed 10-week boxing programme with qualified coaches before being appropriately matched for the night.
The event will help promote men’s health through Movember New Zealand, bring our community together and raise funds for Ruakura RFC and its community initiatives.
We’re aiming for a crowd of 700–1,000 people, corporate tables, entertainment and a fight-night atmosphere worthy of the big stage.
As our poster says, we’re looking for people willing to step forward and help make Rumble on the River a night to remember.
Think you’ve got what it takes? Or know somebody who would be perfect?
🥊 TAG THEM BELOW!
Expressions of interest don’t commit you to fighting, come and find out what’s involved first.
