61.5kg A Class FTR – Darren O’connor (Thai Style, Liverpool) vs Panicos Yusuf (Superpetch/All Powers, Stockport)
Our second fight sees U.K. ranked #2 Panicos challenge the current number 1 to determine who is the best lightweight in the U.K. This is a bout that the fans have wanted for some time and is a fantastic addition to The Main Event bill. Darren recorded the 22nd win of his career yesterday with a comfortable points win over a Spanish champion. He holds both the ISKA British and ISKA European titles and has beaten many of the top names in the U.K. including Keith Mclachlan, Jonno Chipchase and Paul Karpowicz, as well as recording wins over Thai and European opposition. His record currently reads 22 wins, 9 losses and 1 draw.
Panicos featured on our The Main Event – Straight To The Point show earlier this month, beating Scotland’s rising star Chris Shaw on points. He is regarded as one of the best fighters in Europe and has proven his talent on countless occasions, with wins over Ireland’s Josh Palmer and Thai champion Prathet Sor Thanikul on his impressive record. He is the current WRSA European champion and has been seeking the opportunity to challenge for the U.K. number 1 spot for some time. This is yet another top level fight on a Main Event card, with many more to come!
