The Mission

At Drago Boxing, our vision is to set a new standard for combat sports equipment by blending engineering expertise with real world fight experience. We design tools that simplify training, improve performance, and support fighters at every stage of their journey, from first-timers to seasoned professionals.

Our Journey So Far

From prototype to international sales.

  1. November 2024

    First prototype built

    Frustrated with the time wasted rolling his hand wraps and the lack of an easy way to dry them, Shane built the first version of the Drago Roller using steel brackets and clothes hangers. A rough prototype, but it proved the idea had potential.

  2. December 2024

    Engineered for production

    Drawing on his background in mechanical engineering, Shane refined the design in CAD and began 3D printing early models. Faster, more compact, and built to be portable.

  3. February 2025

    Patent filed

    Recognizing the potential, a provisional patent was filed to protect the design and secure the innovation behind the product.

  4. March 2025

    Testing with local fighters

    Initial units were handed out to local boxers and coaches. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, confirming the need for a faster, more efficient way to manage hand wraps.

  5. August 2025

    Official launch

    After months of iteration and testing, the team launched the Drago Roller online, offering fighters a smarter way to manage their wraps.
