Already under contract and still showing up to prove a point — Izzy Rositano made her presence felt at the Power Slap Combine. The outspoken, high-energy Australian competitor didn’t need to attend camp, but chose to anyway, hungry to sharpen her skills, deepen her understanding of the rule set, and push closer to a booking.
Why Izzy Attended the Combine
Despite already holding a Power Slap contract, Izzy viewed the camp as a crucial learning opportunity. With officials present — including representatives from the Nevada Athletic Commission — she gained clarity on rule nuances that many outsiders overlook.
She emphasized how structured and regulated the sport truly is, noting that Power Slap operates under far stricter oversight than many combat sports she’s previously competed in.
More Than “Just Slapping”
Izzy addressed one of the biggest misconceptions about Power Slap:
This isn’t chaos — it’s precision.
One of the biggest surprises for her was the box rule, which prevents foot movement and limits torque generation. Unlike boxing or traditional striking sports, Power Slap requires athletes to generate power without twisting or stepping, demanding refined technique and discipline.
She pointed out that even elite athletes can be disqualified quickly if they don’t fully understand the rules.
Weight Classes Knowing Her Strengths
Izzy has a clear, strategic plan for her Power Slap journey:
-
Preferred debut weight: 155 lbs
-
Future goal: Move to 145 lbs
-
Lowest possible class: Bantamweight (but not ideal)
With experience cutting weight successfully — including a 16-pound cut in six days for arm wrestling — Izzy knows her body well. However, she’s firm on protecting her biggest weapon: strength.
After more than a decade in sport, she refuses to sacrifice muscle and power simply to chase a lighter division.
Combat Sports Background
Izzy isn’t new to unconventional competition. Her résumé includes:
-
Boxing as her primary discipline
-
Competing in Seattle’s notorious Scrapyard fight circuit
-
A viral five women vs one man bout
-
An undefeated 3–0 Scrapyard record
Despite the chaos of that environment, Izzy approached it with professionalism, discipline, and respect — even acknowledging the toughness of her opponent for finishing the fight.
Potential Matchups & Competitive Edge
When asked who she’d like to slap in Power Slap, Izzy didn’t shy away from controversy. While she avoids competing against friends, she admitted certain personal principles would add extra motivation in the right matchup.
Her honesty, confidence, and unapologetic personality are exactly what makes her stand out in the women’s division.

Final Word
