...Singapore, where the U2 Can gym - a converted chicken shed - recently bought a boxing ring and has begun to offer serious training. Among the instructors: an ex-head boxing coach for the Singapore Army. The Real Fight Club in London is beginning to attract women. "I get a real buzz out of making my films, but that's a slow burn," says Ann Parisio, a documentary filmmaker who boxed in the first women's fight in London in June.

Lemalu is on the cusp of stardom. His first album last year...
