🥊 BEFORE THEY BECAME STARS... THIS WAS THE BEGINNING! 🥊 Back in October 1992, on a Fitenite Promotion, two future Australian kickboxing standouts stepped into the ring for what was their very first fight. 🇦🇺 Vince Lodato 🇦🇺 Mike Karitsis Neither fighter was a household name yet. There were no titles on the line, no big reputations, just two young fighters chasing a dream and willing to test themselves in the ring. What makes this fight so special is knowing what came next. Both men would go on to face some of Australia's toughest fighters during the golden era of kickboxing, earning respect through hard fights and countless rounds in the gym. On this night, after three competitive rounds, Mike Karitsis got the nod on points, taking the victory in what was the first chapter of two impressive fighting careers. Vince would later become known for his toughness, durability and willingness to take on anyone, while Mike would establish himself as one of Victoria's respected competitors during the strong 1990s kickboxing scene. This is exactly why FightRewind exists — to preserve the history of the fighters, champions, contenders and newcomers who helped build Australian kickboxing. 📺 Watch this piece of Australian kickboxing history and see where it all began! #FightRewind1 #AustralianKickboxing #KickboxingHistory #Fitenite #VinceLodato #MikeKaritsis #VintageKickboxing #90sKickboxing #MartialArts #FullContact #KickboxingLegends #FightArchives #CombatSports #ClassicFights #KickboxingAustralia #MuayThaiAustralia #FightRewind
