Ken Horan vs Szymon Was.
Long standing WKN World Kickboxing amateur champion Ken Horan and his team are going full throttle with Kens first promotion on the 18th April in Galway. Horan lost his world title in a disputed but very close fight against Szymon Was. The teenager from Poland shared the spoils of war with Horan when judges couldn’t split them as they declared a draw but ringside officials gave Was the crown on a count back.

Ken, can I ask how you felt conditioning-wise at the end of your first fight with syzmom? it was a fast-paced fight and you certainly finished the fresher. Did you train to be able to go beyond the set number of rounds?
