British kickboxing promotion Contender Promotions UK are continuing their global takeover with their first ever “Fightstar Hunt” world tour. Starting with Holland and the renown House of Legends VOS gym on August 30, Contender Promotions President Garry Bell will hand pick top International talent to become the latest contenders. This comes as huge news for kickboxing in the UK, with this international expansion set to bring some of the very best fighters on the planet to the UK.

Garry Bell and Francois Lubber have invited special guests, Dutch kickboxing legends Ivan Hippolyte, Hesdy Gerges, and Gago Drago to attend Fightstar Hunt to use their expertise in selecting the very best at both amateur and professional level.

Contender Promotions plan on taking Fightstar Hunt to every major kickboxing territory in the next few years with tryout camps in Ireland and the USA currently on the agenda. Fightstar Hunt applicants will be put through their paces in pad workout sessions and sparring bouts.

Contender Promotions President Garry Bell said: “This is a small part of our plan to take Contender Promotions to the very top. My vision is to bring in new fight stars from around the world to fight on our events and catapult them onto the world stage.

It’s time to build my own legacy. We have a great team that’s stronger than ever, we all share the same passion and drive to build the brand, taking Contender Promotions to the top of the industry. The hunt is on!”

Official sponsor Real-Fighters will be supplying all mandatory sparring equipment. Successful amateur and professional applicants from Holland that get the chance to become a Fightstar will potentially be invited to take part in future Contender events. They will also receive a Real-Fighters kit bag.
