Made In ProKick is set to be a cracking event showcasing the best homegrown talent from the Belfast gym, against some of the rising stars of the kickboxing world.
Then onto the main event...Johnny "Swift" Smiths' World Title defence against Yuhei Tsuda from RISE gym in Tokyo, Japan - this fight set at 69kg. Up first was the young challenger, at 21, Tsuda looks strong and conditioned and came in at 67kg. Then onto the World Champ - confident and relaxed Smith weighed it at 68kg. Both fighters showed a lot of mutual respect, and Johnny allowed Tsuda a brief moment to have his hands on the World Title belt that he has travelled so far to try and snatch. However Smith was quick to take it back and cement his position as champion. This fight is perfectly staged to be an exciting, exhilarating and energetic affair!
