Are you ready to make a deal
Attention kickboxing figureheads - Belfast’s Billy Murray wants to hear and meet the world’s makers and shakers from the kickboxing fraternity stateside or the Far-East with plans to develop an annual international competition between a US or Asian team against a Northern Irish team – with each event held in the other’s nation in consecutive years.
“It’s still at the early stage but we’re moving ahead with talks,” said Murray. “In the past we have worked mostly with promoters in Europe, especially France, Italy, Spain and Germany.
There have also been occasional showings in Canada. But to get to the level where we are talking about a major international co-promotion in America. For a long time I have been saying that Belfast, especially my ProKick group, is one of the top kickboxing clubs in Europe. This will help prove it.”
Murray said no dates have been set yet for events, but that further details would be released in the next few weeks.
