ISKA UK third quarter activity
ISKA UK managed to maintain a respectable schedule of events in the third quarter of 2008 that included the traditionally slow summer months of July and August. ISKA UK sanctioned 13 events that included 1 World title, 1 European title, 2 commonwealth titles and 6 British, National and regional titles.
We proved once again that ISKA Champions are ready to step up and defend their titles when other paper champions run for to hills at the mere mention of a challenger. We should applaud World Champions Rungnakorn Kharnpan who successfully defended his title twice this year, Frankie Hudders who defended his title in Cambodia just six month after winning it and Fran Zuccala regained his world title in February and will defend in Ireland on the 8th November against European Champion Tommy McCaffery. British and National Champions have also been defending their titles, Andy Pollard has made two defences of the British Super-middleweight and turned down a shot at the European title because he felt he wasn’t worthy, which is refreshing when you consider the number of alphabet soup titles available almost anyone can be a champion. The bottom line is, ISKA titles are the most credible titles available in the UK are recognised worldwide and can lead to a successful International career.
