World champions Andrew Grimason,Gary Hamilton and Lydia Braniff will be on the card for the June 24 show which is part of the ProKick Gym’s ‘I’m A Champion – Get Me In The Ring’ series. The morning and early afternoon will see at least 12 novice fights and the evening event will present eight title fights – ranging from national to International belts.
The ‘I’m A Champion....’ series was created by kickboxing veteran Billy Murray earlier this year. A boot camp of budding kickboxing champions enlisted in a demanding three-year programme at his Prokick Gym. In all, 40 fighters signed up to the dream of winning domestic honours and becoming world champions. Until 2008, the chosen group will embark on a mission of fighting once a month in 2006, ending the year with shots at domestic titles.
In 2007 they will challenge for British and European titles and in 2008, world dominance is the aim.
“Some of the fighters who signed up to the programme will be fighting for the first time and others will be heading for regional belts,” Murray explained. “They’ll be amongst some amazing champions who are at the peak of their powers and it’ll be carrot to keep them all going. They are all undergoing a tough regime trying to become world champs and I’m glad to say we’re on track for our remarkable goal.”
Murray added that a full-list of fighters for the day of high-octane action would be released next week.
