Lincoln Fight Factory head to Sleaford this Saturday for Takeover Promotions event
Over the last few years the Takeover Promotions brand has been largely recognised as one of, if not the, leading small hall K1 fight night events in the UK and this Saturday one of the promotions most decorated fighters, Phil Robbins is bringing it to his hometown of Sleaford.
Takeover Promotions owner Shawn Burton has for the last 15 years been the only K1 kickboxing promoter in Lincoln, bringing the city some fantastic nights of fighting in a competitive but extremely safe and family friendly environment. His events have seen various boxing celebrities, professional footballers and even rappers perform live to an always capacity crowd, as well as helping bring to Lincoln titles right up to world championship level.
Always wanting to add feathers to his cap, Burton has been looking at working with other promoters to work under the Takeover Promotions brand in other cities and took his first event to Corby in May, alongside Danger Zone and Musashi Gym owner Alex Bolshunov was a huge success and expects Sleaford to be no different.
A working relationship that started between Shawn and Phil around 8 years ago when Robbins started fighting on the Lincoln events and it wasn’t long before the relationship went further into a fighter/coach type which turned out to be a very successful pairing with Phil fighting all the way up to professional international level.
Shawn had a very successful show in Lincoln in September and Phil’s show is already almost sold out and the show features a sold card of Sleaford and Lincoln fighters all looking to bring their fans something very special.
This show has some great Lincoln Fight Factory vs Sleaford bouts which should really bring some noise and fond memories of the days when Sleaford’s Impact Gym and the Lincoln Fight Factory used to trade blows.
The Lincoln/Sleaford fights include Igor Lewondowski vs Harry Stuart, Ed Jarvis vs Jack Peckett and Maris Ivanovs vs KC Kemp.
Other Fight Factory fighters on the card include Stefan Fota, Stanislavs Daleckis and Petr Hellsinger, with a few more hopefully added before Saturday night.
This is a stacked card with some great local talent and Phil really is bringing something very special to Sleaford, so if your free on 16 November, this really is the place to be.
Tickets for this event are now fully sold out, which is a massive achievement for Phil and the Takeover Promotions brand, its going to be a great night and hopefully the start of something very special for the town of Sleaford.
The Takeover Promotions team would like to thank Phil and the guys at New Image Gym for joining the brand and helping them move into another town in what is just the beginning for their expansion in the UK K1 scene.
