Meanwhile, ProKick team mate Karl McBlain, will also travel and compete in the second largest island in the Mediterranean, Sardinia. The gas engineer McBlain, will take to the ring in a Thai-boxing style fight for the amateur WKN European title at the light-welterweight devision 64.5kg. If McBlain is successful this will be his third European title in three different kickboxing styles, the east Belfast man hold amateur titles in K1 style and in Full-Contact kickboxing.

"This is a great opportunity and very important fights for me and the team." ProKick head coach Billy Murray added: " These fights will open the door to a new WKN promoter which I haven't dealt with in the past. More importantly, the fights will act as stepping stones for both Gary and Karl as they prepare for World title matches at the end of the year set for Belfast."
