James ‘GK’ O’Connor fought Maia Jones for the IKBF 72.3kg North Island Title in Gisbourne on Saturday under Full Thai Rules. James had a hard earned win and got the belt. Next time he will be staying with his own weight at 70 and this is the start of a busy year for GK.
Also on the card were Melodie Downs and Philip Wilson from WTK in Hamilton our sister club. Both won their matches Philip by TKO in Round 3, and Mel won the North Island Title – a great night from the Sit Tan lineage.
Well done James you big puff!! Martin U.K
