Up-dates about the Bash n Mash 2026

The headline attraction sees Irish and British Champion Jay “The Belfast Samurai” Snoddon return to action after overcoming a serious leg injury and major surgery. Forced to adapt his fighting style, Snoddon now faces dangerous French talent Yanis Kacem for the WKN Professional Full-Contact European Championship in what promises to be an emotional and inspiring battle of resilience, courage, and warrior spirit.

But every contest on the Bash ’n’ Mash card is worthy of topping any major event in its own right.

Grace “The Smiling Assassin” Goody returns to Belfast in a huge WKN European Championship clash against Malta’s Emma Xuereb. Grace, one of ProKick’s most experienced international competitors, has travelled the globe from Japan to Europe building her reputation as one of Ireland’s elite female fighters. Xuereb arrives with strong credentials of her own, making this a fascinating international showdown between two intelligent and highly skilled competitors.

James Braniff faces one of the biggest challenges of his career when he steps back into the ring against an old rival for the WKN European title. Earlier this year in France at the prestigious BFS event, Braniff came up short in a hard-fought battle away from home. Now, with revenge firmly on his mind and the European crown at stake, “The Belfast Boy” gets the chance to rewrite the story in front of his home crowd in Belfast. Known for his aggressive style, toughness, and refusal to back down, Braniff will be looking to prove how much he has evolved since their first meeting.

The Braniff brothers return to the spotlight after a string of impressive victories abroad in Germany and Cyprus. Known for their fearless fighting style and relentless pressure, James and Dan Braniff have become firm crowd favourites and continue to prove they can win both at home and away against top international opposition.

Adding even more excitement to the evening is the special Northern Ireland vs Cyprus challenge, strengthening the long-standing relationship between ProKick and Cyprus promoter Mr. Chris Christodoulou. These international matchups promise pride, passion, and explosive action between two nations with a deep respect for combat sport.
