James Braniff Vs Roman Laroudie II - Billy Murray's legendary 'Bash 'n' Mash' is back! An unforgettable black-tie evening on Saturday, 27 June 2026
The French Connection – the return
James "The Belfast Boy" Braniff (N,Ireland) vs. Roman Laroudie (France)
A clash of grit and precision defined the first bout between Braniff and Laroudie on January 31st, 2026, in Nimes at the BSF. On that occasion, Braniff was out-pointed, marking his first loss in several years. Since then, he has remained undefeated in his last four fights, even securing a WKN international title in Germany. Laroudie has also been active on the competitive front, with three wins under his belt.
On June 27th, the pair will face each other again, but this time the prize is the WKN Pro-Am European K1 title, to be decided over five two-minute rounds. This is a rematch not to be missed.
Jay Snoddon (Irish & British Champion) vs. (Under Negotiation)
Get ready for a clash of titans! Jay Snoddon will be stepping into the ring for the WKN Professional Full-Contact European Kickboxing Championship, battling it out over 10 intense 2-minute rounds.
While many of you were anticipating the trilogy fight against Cocu for the K1 title, there's been a change of plans (more on that later!).
For now, the Belfast Samurai is forging a new path to greatness. Stay tuned for more.
Dan Braniff (N,Ireland) vs. Petros Foulidis (Cyprus)
Get ready for an electrifying showdown! Dan Braniff is set to clash with "Mr. Excitement" himself, Petros Foulidis of Cyprus, in a 4x2 round battle under full K1 rules. This is one fight you won't want to miss. Stay tuned for more details
Grace Goody (N,Ireland) vs. Emma Xuereb (Malta)
Also featured on the card is the WKN K1-kickboxing European Bantamweight Title fight (56.6kg, 5 x 2 rounds). This bout between Northern Ireland's Grace Goody and Malta's Emma Xuereb is a main-event-worthy clash that promises to be a showstopper.
