Showdown events is pleased to announce that

Zidov from the TV programme Muay thai - Contender is fighting on

showdown 6 at the Octagon Centre on the 15th March

This show will also feature SDF fighters fighting for titles

The undercard is still being prepared and will hopefully feature sheffield based clubs so any instructors that have fighters that would like to fight on the undercard ( Full contact / Low kick - novice and experianced fighters) then call Adrian or PM me your details and i will pass them on

Let you know when the tickets are out

That is what you can ridiculously big news!

I'll make sure im not working for this one

Sheffield is surly on the kickboxing map now lol

will you post the rest of the fight card once its arranged ?

I must admit i have been to about 15 diffrent shows around the country ( well midlands and north mainly) but nothing beats the Octagon for venue and atmosphere.

The showdown team have got it down to a tee now, pity i missed the Grosvenor show last week.

I've posted this on the Uni Muay Thai club site, hopefully we can get a crew down for it.

I liked Zidov...certainly not the best fighter on there by a long chalk but he was definitely a character.

This will be another feather in the cap for sheffield kickboxing and promoters
showdownevents.co.uk

Its a tremendous thing that these guys are bringing this calibre of fighter to compete in what is becoming one of the countries best kickboxing shows.

Sheffields most successful kickboxing clubs:

Paul Powers -SDF
Adrian Abdullas - Sheffield Academy of Martial Arts
Christian DiPaolos - Legends Gym
are fielding fighters on the show and Hopefully the promoters are trying to match up fighters from
Andy Marlows Gym
Marsdens all styles Kickboxing


There are two SDF lads challenging for European Titles which are currently held by two Portugese fighters.
and Marc Sargant from Derby fighting for a vacant world title against Zidov

These fights will be K1 (wako rules)
Tickets are now on sale - most of the VIP table tickets have gone and there are about 150 standered left.

Message from Adrian
'Thanks to all the clubs that have shown an intrest to fight on this and future shows unfortunatly we can only match 12 fights - but we will keep in contact with you and will hopefully be able to match you fighters on the next Ultimate fighter show at the Grosvenor Hotel during the summer or showdown 7 in Sept/October at the Octagon.'

We will be there in force supporting the legends lads

When will you or do you think you'll get Imran khan on one of your shows

I'd pay some serious dosh to watch him fight

Any news on the under card yet

Are there any Thai boxing fights on or is it K1 ?

With all the dom and gloom around a good night of world class k1 kickboxing is what Sheffield needs.

Will the fights be on internet TV again ?

And what are the records of the lads fighting for titles - i mean are they worthy challangers ??

Any chance of putting up the title fighters records for us to browse over ??

This show is going to be bigger than ever i've just been told there will be a

guest appearance from Dzhabar Askerov off Muay Thai Contender

I haven't got the full fight card but as soon as i do it will be posted on here

plans are already under way for organising the 2nd ultimate fighter at the

Grosvenor Hotel date TBC but its looking like May/ June time.

Then October / November will see another one of Sheffields most respected

(and proberbly the best in the country) fighters, debut at Showdown 7.

Spider the fights will be K1 style and Full contact, to date there are 15 fights

matched, Including the World Title and 2 European Titles (All WAKO K1 rules)

There are only 4 vip tables left and around 100 tickets and still 5 weeks to go, Due to the demand for tickets there won't be any available on the door.
