That new fight gym in Bashundhara is officially open, and they have big plans. Zulcan Indoor Arena launched with a ceremony at Bashundhara Sports City on Saturday. Olympic boxing medalist and former Singapore coach Arvind Lalwani was there, having worked with the facility since September. He called the place world-class and said Singapore lacks similar infrastructure. Lalwani helped introduce the World Muaythai Organisation to Bangladesh through Zulcan.
He told reporters the gym is now ready after adding missing elements. They have an MMA cage and equipment, with more gear, televisions, a sound system, and treadmills on the way to create a complete training area. Lalwani plans to visit every month to build Zulcan into a top global facility. His goal includes starting fight promotions and bringing world-class fighters to Bangladesh. He mentioned plans for boxing, MMA, and Muay Thai events in an upstairs arena that is currently half finished, with more seats and a boxing ring coming.
Trained by a coach of Muhammad Ali, Lalwani also sent a message to the public. He said the gym is for everyone, including kids and older people, not just fighters. He emphasized fitness, mental focus, discipline, and learning a martial art for physical and mental improvement.
