Darren McMullen hit the scales at the weigh-in on the day before at 74.1kg. The Ice-man was first-up to fight in the WKN 4 man K1 style tournament. The Ice-man faced SaiDame (event favourite) from Osman's Gym, Belgium – the bout was scheduled for 4 x 2 rounds and even-though first fight of the night it did not disappoint! The first three rounds were tit for tat with both fighters showing good technic and the will to win.

It wasn't until the last 30sec of the final round that McMullan took a few hard low kicks, 4 or 5 in a row when suddenly Saidane switched a high right kick to the neck of the Belfast fighter which rocked McMullan to his boots – Ref give a standing 8 count,  and right away Saidane took the opportunity firing in a blistering combination that forced the referee to stop the fight.

Great respect in this match from both young fighters.
