We are delighted to release the next confirmed bout for The Tanko Main Event:
Brad Stanton (Kiatphontip, Leeds) vs Charlie Peters (Double K, London)
These two top-ranked UK welterweights will clash in a mouth-watering matchup on May 14th
Aggressive southpaw Stanton burst onto the UK scene several years ago, destroying everyone he came up against in the early stages of his career. His explosive power has seen him collect a number of knockout wins and he boasts victories over the likes of Tommi Mccormick, Sam Omomogbe and Ricky Sewell. At The Main Event in 2014 he put on a stylish display en route to victory over Portuguese champion Federico Alfaro. After a 6-month period training and teaching in Australia he is keen to get back into the ring and has taken a very tough challenge in Charlie Peters.
Trained by British legend Kieran Keddle, Peters brings to the stage a record stacked with bouts against big names and has competed at the highest level under both Muay Thai and kickboxing rulesets. With vast experience of fighting on big events around the world, Peters has shared the ring with the likes of Jo Nattawut, Mark Skeer, Alex Bublea and, more recently, French star Fabio Pinca, to whom he dropped a points decision.
He currently occupies #2 in the UK 67kg rankings and will be looking to cement his position with a win over Stanton at The Tanko Main Event.
A domestic dust-up of epic proportions, this is a hugely exciting addition to an already world class fight card!
