Q2. WKA SUPER SHOw
News on Kash Gills latest show on June the 8th when he will host Q2. Following his overwhelming sucess on his last production the show will be again be held at the Q Club on Corporation Street Birmingham City Centre.
Topping the bill is Simon Mr KO Akufo's world title challenge against current WKA World Champion Jason Vassello. News of Sunny the Hitman Hira's opponent for the WKA 57kg World title will follow shortly, as will details of the whole card as it becomes available.
WATCH THIS SPACE.
This has to be confirmed by Jason Vassallo's trainer who is away on holiday, back at the end of this week. Jason has been challenged but it has to be said at only 5 weeks notice, let's wait and see
Steve
Good match but I am almost sure Ricky couldnt make Sunny's 57kg weight.
Is Kash doing two shows on the same night?because someone was on about an iska supershow the other day.
This is the same show... It was due to be sanctioned by the ISKA but that has now been amended to the WKA.
ill ask ricky if he can make 57kg
As with all good pro shows these days, Kash has his proffessional fighters supported by a quality Amatuer fight.
For the Amateur Light Middleweight Jnr World Title 72.5KG a match between Tyler and Philipp Ulsamer. Tyler two times European Jnr Amateur Champion faces the World Light continuous Light middleweight Champion, who is also German Nation Jnr Full contact Champion Ulsamer. promises to be a gud en.
Good Luck Kash with the WKA and good luck Tyler. Pleased you got your opportunity.

Simon Mr KO Akufo
Challenger Simon Akufo eyeballs a great Champion Jason Vasello
Proud promoter with his two top of the bill fighters. What a good fight this promises to be.
Another mouth watering fight in prospect Gvido Branca Latvia and Sunny The Hitman Hira. I know you can't go on looks but this guy you sense is the real deal, and yet Sunny remains ever confident, as always.
GUESS WHO IS TAKING THIS HOME?
YOU JUST KNOW THIS IS GOING TO BE UGLY.
Well guys and girls if that dosn't wet the appetite then your already dead, or in the wrong sport. For too long now poeple have been saying how kickboxing should raise it's profile well if the fights live up to the build up then you miss it at your loss. One hell of a good night in prospect.

Any predictions on the outcome of these fights,i'm gonna google these guys and get back with some.
i predict Jason we will win against Simon
Jason is looking very good and sharp at the moment
i predict Jason we will win against Simon
Jason is looking very good and sharp at the moment
look's like a gret show, with some excellent fights. I fancy Jason too but anything is possible! Simon sure looks fit and in great shape. Good luck to all fighters.
Kash - Looks like its gonna be a good un...good luck and like the LIMO and suits. Very smart! Good for Kickboxing and Good for the WKA!
It needed someone like Kash to raise the profile again,since Steve H left as nothing has really happened of late.
But to be fair this looks like it could be a cracker!
Dean
Good luck to Aaron Towns, he is a good technical fighter and im sure he will do well.
tyler the steppin razor won by split decision
any other results Scott mate? Tell tyler well Done if you still there:)
Thanks Dean, Ty fought a war against a german Machine an awesome fighter who Ty has the utmost respect for. Tyler has a fantastic jaw but boy did this fella test it in the early rounds. Still its late and the champange is havin an effect so more tomorrow, except to say what a great night. I go to sleep tonight the happiest man in the world.
Jason won unanimous at that!!
Again i warn you people that think Jason is washed up,you are very wrong.HE IS BACK!!!
Credit to Simon Akufo though,he is a good fighter and he gave it everything and didnt stop goin.
Sunny Hira won his 3rd world title in an early stoppage.
Tyler shakespeare done the business against a very game and tough german opponent! I'd never seen Tyler fight before but he is very good,a stylish fighter.
Congrats to Tyler, Well done mate !!
Those that know the game will know that to really put your achievements in prospective you have to judge them by the person you beat to achieve what you have achieved not what name, or how big, or how many titles you hold. That said Tyler became a proper world Champion last night having just and we do mean just beat one hell of a fantastic martial artist in Philipp Ulsamer, the word fighter would not do this fella justice, this guy has the lot technique power skill and above all humility. If there are any other 72kg Amatuer fighters out there that really want to test themself at the max then this is the guy, there is no praise to great for him pure class, awesome. So in years to come when Ty looks back on his achievements he will no doubt take pride in naming this guy as the fella he beat to take his title.
Too Philipp Ulsamer and the Dragon Gym in Wurzburg Germany I forward you Tylers and indeed the IFA's utmost respect.

great pics,love the suits etc,sunnys opponent looks hard but obviously was just another waste of flying costs,mabe sunny can fight a decent opponent next time,sean bowman will fight him anytime and will go the distance with sunny.well done to him but i dont think undisputed is the right word until he has beaten sean.jmo,nath
Well done with the show and well done Tyler, hard to believe he is still only a young teenager, remember seeing him when he must have been about 7-8 and he looked good on that night!
the whole entrance thing looked the dogs too, really went to town with it, and summin i am sure many others will now considering doing to!
sunny hira wont even fight ricky glover never mind sean bowman and ricky wont go the distance with him he'll stop him.
Cheers Shawn, and all the best with your showdown with Barinda next week, another top draw fight with two great fighters going head to head.
cheers Alan, should be a great fight, i am in the shape of my life so no excuses can be made either way of the outcome on sunday!
you and the family must be proud of tyler, just dnt let him make the same mistake i did at 18 an discover beer and nightclubs lol
well done to all glad it was a success, and to simon keep it up kid proud of ya, gave it your best all anyone can ask no regrets...
kash great stuff well done
insideout no ones seem 2 wont fight glover last fights over in the 1st
One things for sure Sunny Hira is a proud champion who holds his head high as he should three governing bodies have accepted him good enough to fight for their world title and each time he has took them. Another sure thing is Kash in each occasion has had nothing to do with picking his opponent and he certainly does not nurse his fighters, anyone who knows him will tell you that. So you can only beat who they put in front of you and Sunny keeps doing that FACT. As for Ricky and Shaun well Shaun don't do low kick and I don't think Ricky could do the weight, both good fighters though I grant you. Hey ! heres an idea about them gettin it on together, that would be a good en for sure. Seriously both lads are good but if the statss don't add up then that's that init.
Shawn was you there mate?
I am sure this show was sanctioned by ISKA originally until kash took over WKA so no influence there then and the original ISKA german opponent was changed to a latvian WKA one so no influence there either yep the stats dont match up so fight foreign nobodies at lowkick so you dont have to meet the best british at FC.
Ok Alan
I'm quiet interested in that comment.
Are you saying that Sunny now fights only lowkick?
Nah wasnt there Richard, too busy training for my fight, hope to be at future shows of Kashs as he has now set a high standard! in any capacity i can hint hint
Jason Vassallo's title was retained by split decision.. The MC was a little inexperienced so announced the judges scores incorrectly (although the end result was the same). The fact remains that both fighters really produced the goods on the night and showed a huge amount of respect for each other - before, during & after the bout. This is a great fight to show on TV and bring the casual sports fans into kickboxing!
I had a wka world title fight with low kicks in only my second low kick fight.But i as wka full contact british champion at the time? ??????? Sunny a good fighter would be a great fight with ricky ???????????????
What is philip ulsamer's full contact record just wanna make sure i got the same kid on youtube?
Yes Mark, Sunny does only fight low kick and continues to take on all comers and beat em. And if you listen to the purist then this is real kickboxing. To you upside down sorry I mean inside out then shut the ---- up you are obviously quite well informed but still remain ill informed. As for the Germans record I say this I would stand this guy up against anyone in the world, and put my shirt on him, any takers, no, I thought not.
i was going to put up a link to a recent 8-man thaiboxing tournament in which philip fought in and won to highlight how tough this kid is not like the asylum seeker you brought over to fight sunny but since you got abusive eff u too.
Insideout , who are you?
You seem to have a lot of "inside information" on the politics and workings of different organisations?
Are you a promoter or an official?
blackrose,you are 100% right sean dosent fight lowkick at the moment,sunny under these rules is the best in britain,it is up to colin and carl to change the rankings in the featherweight division,all im trying to do is push sean forward under fc rules as i was so often told last year that rankings mean more than titles!.did paul collins not fight?and does he fight fc or lowkick.thanks nath
Paul Collins does fight low kick If I remember right his last fight was low kick, but that was some time ago now, and he didn't fight Sunday. David your right to try to promote your guy he is quality, and maybe the rankings do need to be looked at but they are open to suggestion and information. And Farhad you got more chance finding Lord Lucan mate.
Pauls last fight was full contact but yes he does fight low kick as well.. His world title (won against wayne quemina - *spelling*) is a full contact title won over 12 rounds between the 2 top fighters in the division at the time. Unfortunately he has not fought since october 2005.
Alan do me a favour please mate, nd pass on congratulations to Tyler from me
cheers J
Anymore Pics Of All The Fights ?
I certainly will Jamie and I thank you for them, Dean as soon as I get the offical fight pics I will post them here mate.
Well Done Tyler!!!!!!!
Top fighter and nice guy to boot. Will there be a defence or is it pro now for the steppin razor?
Looking forward to the dvd.
Regards
Dean
Hi Dean thanks mate, as for Ty's immediate future well first its a nice rest, that said he was off to start work this morning. But with regard to his fighting career well it would be easy for me too let him off the lease and have him fight pro, but Tyler will tell you he is long way off from developing the style he wants fight, so he will stay amateur for a while yet. Good Champions defend we all know, so if the opportunity arises then that must be a priority. And then of course Ty boxes as well, so who knows what will happen there. In kickboxing he has always fought as the underdog, either giving away weight, more often age, sometimes both.
Within the WKA and EFK he is a jnr until he is eighteen so time is on his side, I have longed for the day when he starts a fight with the stats stacked in his favour, maybe this should prevail for a while until Kash, he, and myself feel he is ready to go onto the open market. You would have to look at the upcoming eight man tournament to judge where Tyler is at the moment, and that little meeting I think labelled KBOX had the likes of Dean Sugden, Ricky Gammon, Lex Easdon, Fran Zucalla, John Orchard Maybe even a slimmer more trim Mick Crossland ( lol Ty thinks ya wicked man. ) init at first conception, but you get my meaning, when he is ready to move around with these guys, is when we will put him out as a pro. Well that’s the plan for now anyway.
Just to confirm the independent rankings position (for the next publication).
Paul Collins will be removed until such times as he re-establishes himself. We agreed initially to hold fire until he had fought on this event. As this did not happen we have to class him as innactive at this time.
Sunny Hira will also be adjusted as his continuing endeavours in the low kick division (which I congratulate him on) are now holding up the progress of other fighters in full contact.
Both fighters are only one fight away from being back in contention should they select full contact as their future style and we wish them well in whatever direction they choose to take.
Sounds fair... when will they be released? (the new rankings)
Blakrose, "who is lord lucan" Where is he hiding (LOL)
Come on then INSIDEOUT tell us who you are?
LOL
dont hold ya breath Farhad.
My name is Micheal Caine notta alotta know that.
My name is Micheal Caine notta alotta people know that.
Blackrose
I can see you and Kash are looking after his career well my freind. He does have time on his side and there are many more am titles he can go and get in the mean time.
Nurture the talent and it will blossom.
All the best to him in the future.Catch up soon.
Regards
Dean
This show will be shown on the new internet fight channel - shoutfight.com. Just part of what looks to be some really top notch programming.
my brother sam is fighting phillip ulsamer for the -70kg european title next friday(june 27th)!!
Sunny fought at -57kg.. He's always been pretty much the same weight unless he's challenged bigger fighters.. (like stacey gosden)
i think Jamie gilbert forght sunny about 4years ago at Hilton hotel Birmingham
Jamie Knocked him out jamie is ikf and goldenbelt world champ Now that would be a great match.He also beat a good lad from kash,s gym called Ice man who was pro
at the time and beat him.
interesting match that Scott, it will put one of two things in prospective for Ty really, as there as been a little chat about Ty and Sam getting it on. My advice to Sam would be train hard and stay very tight, as this lad has got a proper dig on him. Keep us up to speed if you would please. All the best Alan
Just caught up with this thread.
Congratulations to Tyler!! A deserved and credible World champion. I've been a fan of him since i first ever saw in Matlock when i was just getting introduced to the sport. His class stood out a mile then so its good to see he is fulfilling his potential! I agree Blakrose, keep him away from the pro's for a while!! A least til i retire! LOL!
aye the germans a strong opponent sams training real hard for this 1!!
will let u no how its going
Jaime Gilbert has never fought Sunny Hira.. He knocked out a guy called Steve Lahore who was a b class fighter at best.
He did beat Pual Collins and is a tidy fighter but do bear in mind Collins had just had hard leg kick fight with the experienced Billy Saul and he does fight in the division below Jaime. No disrespect to Jaime because he is a top fighter from what i've seen but he has more meaningful victories than that under his belt - as they say - a good big-un beats a good little-un every time!
Any pics of this event yet ?
The offical release for stills for this show is on Thursday at a public open gallery evening at Kash's gym. Thereafter I can release them for other uses, ie internet etc, it's all to do with the photographers copyright, but as soon as I can Iwill post them Dean.
