Just
recently the WKN Board of Directors were pleased to announce
a new addition to the WKN Fighters' Hall of Fame. Carl Emery
(Geneva, Switzerland) who was voted Martial Artists of the
Year.
As Belfast fight fans know, Mr Emery has been traveling to
his second home in Belfast for many years. He attends most
of his close friends events at ProKick by bringing Swiss and
other European fighters which he has done for the last 15
years - amidst the hussel and bussel
of his busy life style when travelling, he doesn't
normally have time to relax, by-way-of training or even get
the chance to pass on some of his knowledge that has made
him an undefeated warrior as a Full-Contact fighter.
In Brief:
Carl Emery retired as an undefeated kickboxing fighter after
48 fights, 48wins, and 30 of them by way of KO - He was European
Champion 1993 & 1994 and World Champion 1994. However
he is still active in Sport Ju-Jitsu and Submission Fighting
(mixed martial arts). In England last February Carl won his
14th tournament and has not been beaten in Sport Ju-Jitsu
after 72 consecutive fights.
This time the Swiss sports personality, Emery, had some Quality
Time to enjoy his sport with close friends and colleagues
.
Here are a selection of pictures of his
recent visit to the Emerald Isle while guest of the President
of Ireland Mrs Mary McAleese - The Garden party was held in
the Aras an Uachtarain in Dublin on the 12th July:
