What I have seen over here (NZ) is all promising. All you guys work in together to create shows but with the execption of DIxons K1 shows noone seems to be taking that next step to the big Super Style shows like Ray Matsumura and Nugget and Josh's Evoulutions Shows.
I think in order for the sport to progress to a more commercially viable level the promoters need to get together and broker a deal with Sky sports. Obviously they have seen how big Dixons K1 shows are on TV2 and I am sure that they would have to want a part of that! And if instead of 6 promotors all negotiating to get their one or 2 shows shown you had a Promoters orgainisation/Co op of sorts to negotiate a 6 or 12 fight package i think you would have a stronger position.
Once that TV coverage is in place you then create more revenue as well as more opportunities for fighters (i.e better sponsorship deals etc)all which leads to bigger better fight nights for the fans and a better future for the fighters..
As has been said Dixon has broken down a lot of doors so I think its time to capitalise on that and taking the Muay thai kickboxing scene to a new level in NZ..
Well theres a rant to equal Angove!!
