Contender Promotions have announced their next big event, lined up for November 8 in Middlesbrough. Following on from Nathan Cuthbertson’s memorial held at the July 19th event, Contender Promotions have some huge news to announce.
After a massive response from fans, fighters and coaches; Contender Promotions have been in talks with Pegasus MuayThai and Nathan’s family to bring fans a unique style tournament.
The proposal is for real heroes from Para, Army, Marine and Airforce all to compete in a four man K-1 kickboxing style tournament, spanning different weight classes.
These real life heroes will fight for the Nathan Cuthbertson memorial belt; a replica version of the belt presented to Nathan’s family by Contender promotions.
You can watch the presentation of the belt HERE.
This one off tournament will be named in Honour of Nathan The Cuthy 200 Hero’s Championship.”
As well as this huge memorial tournament, the bill will also include a plethora of professional fights, Garry Bell has promised this to be the biggest event to date.
“It’s great to be working with like minded people, I believe in helping others as well as working hard to progress myself and my team.
After fans and fighters asked how we were going to beat July 19th I knew this would make for some fantastic entertainment whilst driving home a real heart felt message.”
He added: “I believe Contender Promotions is no where near the level it’s going to be one day, I work tirelessly round the clock to make things happen.
I believe my ideas and time I put in are what makes us different to other promotions.
Thanks to every body who supports us.”
Anybody currently serving or a veteran of the armed forces wanting to be a part of this great night on November 8th please contact Promoter Garry Bell at: garry.bell@contenderpromotions.co.uk
