New promoters also joined the ranks, Matt and James Winsper staged a British Championship card at Kidderminster Town Hall and Muaythai World Champions Andy Howson and Liam Harrison promoter their first ISKA Championship card at the Hilton hotel in Leeds both event where successful and more show are planned.
The re-structuring of ISKA Europe is slow but sure and has produced more opportunities for our World and European Champions to defend their titles abroad with growth in activity across Europe and the World. Jordan Watson, Marlon Hunt and Sean Bowman have been offered title defenses and Ronnie Clark, Andrew Tate, David McIntosh and Natalie McCarron have been offered title shots in Europe.
