Fight Week Chaos in the build-up for Stormont Showdown
September 18, 2025
It's fight week, and the Stormont Hotel is buzzing for Saturday, September 20th! This event has been a challenge, to say the least. The much-anticipated "Father and Son Trilogy" main event has been a constant battle, this match has been on-off more times then a light-switch, Uwe has a rib injury sustained in training - we're still unsure if Uwe Menzer will make an appearance. More on the Trilogy soon!
The WKN Irish Champion Jay Snoddon will face the Champion of Cyprus Demir Dimchev in a 3 x3 Full K1 Rules bout this Saturday night at the Stormont Hotel.
FIGHT-TIME IN BELAST
Adding to the drama, the WKN Championship bout between Jay Snoddon and Shay Barnett was cancelled late Tuesday night. Shay's coach, Ryan Lyall, delivered the unfortunate news that Shay had sustained a foot injury and they were hoping it would have cleared up, but that wasn't the case as Shay attended the hospital and they confirmed he had three broken toes.
However, the show must go on! By midnight last night, we secured a replacement for Jay Snoddon. Thanks to WKN's Chris Christodoulou, a new match has been made with Bulgarian fighter Demir Dimchev for a 3x3 minute bout. The British title will be rescheduled for December 7th, at a ProKick gym home show.
All other fights are confirmed and ready! Weigh-ins will take place at the Stormont Hotel on Friday, September 19th, at 8 PM.
For those without tickets, please do not come to the door – entry will be denied as no tickets are available.
