Johnny Smith faced Anthony Riggio K1 kickboxing rules - VIDEO

Double delight for Belfast's punching pals in Switzerland. Johnny Smith and Karl McBlain have their heads well-up in the clouds after the two east Belfast kickboxing talents both won on points away from home against two top Swiss K1 kickboxing fighters. Both were flying the flag for Northern Ireland in the Alps, Villars-sur-Ollon in Switzerland. The life-time friends were hoping to come away with a double-whammy victory, and they done it. But make no mistake they did not get it easy, they had to work hard to take the nod from the judges away from home! Big thanks to Mr Carl Emery for the invitation, and to the WKN for sanctioning the event.
