No break, no, not even for "Kit Kat"




Caitlin Chapman v Claudia Rollo for the Junior WKA Briish title -52kg

Caitlins preparation for this fight was as good as any professional fighter , this girl went to hell and back in the preparation for this fight!


Current Scottish champion Claudia Rollo had a very  successful year taking Gold at the unified games in the full contact section ... Knowing this Caitlin turned up on the day full of confidence ,,,  Caitlin came out in the first round with a storming performance the pace that she had set herself was out of this world and it continued in to the 2nd.


Both girls gave everything to try and clinch that belt. 3rd round Claudia came out with a little fire in her belly and turned up the heat on Caitlin, but been the fighter Caitlin is she moved well, countering punches like a pro and overcame the storm to take that round.

The 4th round was just like the first 2 with Caitlin stepping up the pace once again. You could see that this was becoming a problem for her opponent, with another round in the bag we  could sense the victory but had to make sure of it.

The fight entered the final round  which saw a performance which any coach would be proud of , both girls came out with a different game plan, Rollo looking for that one big shot and Caitlin determined not to let her land it with great movement and with another  great perfomance Caitlin dominated the fight  and took  all 5 round on the judges score cards to become the new WKA british Champion.

Report by 
Head Coach ISOMA

MEKA putting their name well n truly on the map!!

Great news!!!

Connor Farrell & Ryan Bunn  both contended fights at the fight night at the unit in glossop.



All fights on the bill were light continuous. And now it was time for the lads to put all that they have been learning in the last 14 months into action

Up first was Connor, just turned 16, he was straight  on Jordan Taylor into range punches & kicks then back out picking up the points & moving well, knowing Jordan likes to throw jumping spinning kicks. 

By the end Lee Morgan (MEKA coach and himself an international kickboxing champion) knew Connor had done enough for the win. 

By now the pressure was on Ryan and 3 fights from the end on a 30 fight bill. 


So Ryan was hitting and moving well in the first round building a lead, then Dan Twigg  pressed hard with pace & power leaving Ryan a little shocked and with it all to do. By now both were very tired then Ryan finished the round strong in what  was a very close fight. Ryan had just done enough.



2 fights 2 wins  well done to the MEKA lads, the first set of wins of many we believe!!!

SDF at the Sheffield Octagon put on a splendour of a show!


Yes Paul Powers and Richard Hepworth yet again! Show the Kickboxing World how it should be done. Sanctioned under the professional eye and guidance of the BFKKO/WFKKO their December 1st show at the Sheffield Octagon went without hitch!

With a Fantastic finale of a GB v France International under K1 rules and 1 MMA bout, to be followed by "Mr Sheffield STEEL" himself Alex MacKenzie contesting the vacant World K1 Rules title against Frances Patrick Boyer.

Forcing a stoppage Alex MacKenzie proved not only was he a worthy World Champion but that the way the two warriors fought proved that a WFKKO World title is all it is recognised to be, hard hitting and a title that once held is one to be proud of and held high. Many a famous Champion has fought and won one of these titles!

World President Cris Janson-Piers said  "The French opponent was tough, he came out hard and technical, but I spoke to Alex before the fight and he knew this. I said what's your fight plan? He said, I am gonna let him come in the first round, take it on the gloves, lean on him and wear him down and that is exactly what he did.....when Alex saw his opponent slowing he fired up the 6 cylinders he had been leaving on tick over and went to work! I said at ringside, I must remember never to let Alex MacKenzie hit me! At ringside it is far easier to here and see the power in his devastating punches, especially his uppercuts...they thud in like a brick hammer. All credit to his French opponent who was hard as nails and very resiliant, but being hit like that time and time again can only result in one thing and that's exactly what happened, victory to the NEW World WFKKO K1 Rules Champion, Mr Alex MacKenzie and one hell of a nice chap to boot! I am proud to have such Champions lift one of our belts!"
Full fight night report will be issued shortly!

BFKKO/WFKKO continues to be a leader in Fight Promotion

Yes, once again the BFKKO/WFKKO was represented so well by NEKA up in County Durham under top coach and promoter, World Champion, Wesley Fagan. On the evening of the 5th October 2013 Wez brought together some of the top talent in the country including a fighting hit squad from Northern Ireland.

Although the evening finished off with some all on Full Contact adult Kickboxing the day went to the junior and youth element with one figter from NEKA challenging for a Northern Area Title and a young lady, again from NEKA fighting for the WFKKO European Junior Light Contact title.

Although every fighter put 110% in, noticeable performances were attained by Josh Elgy, Caitlin Chapman, Charlotte Watts, and Alan Chapman on what was to be his retirement fight. All the Northern Irish fighters did their country proud.

Big call out coming soon!

Big call out coming soon!
Who am I going to invite into the talons of the Falcon?
Can they rise to the challenge or will nerves and DOUBT get the better of them?

Falcon does it Again and Again!


Another terrific show promoted by SDF of Sheffield and another fantastic result for Falcon Fight Academy.

Lee Suttie, one of Falcons newest first time fighters respectfully took a clear victory over his opponent with a KO In the 1st round of a scheduled 3 round amateur K1 Rules bout.

Suttie, who has put hours and hours of extra practice in since being told he was to be fighting saw the "just rewards" beating a very strong and fisety opponent in Matt Burrell.

Burrell came straight at Suttie from the bell, but that is exactly what he had been training for and was more than prepared......after letting the storm settle Suttie carried on with the plan and systematically placed very technical scoring combinations.

With strong, unsettling knees and some lovely devastating powerful push kicks Lee started to show he had what it takes. He moved in with the hands and after catching Burrell sweet he realised the opening was there and delivered a straight right hand which ended the bout and gave him his first ever win on his first time out of the elite Falcon stable!

Full respect to Matt in being a very strong

 and sporting opponent!

The rest of the show saw some other great fights and again being a BFKKO Show it was very successful for the organisation too!

Some action from a semi pro K1 rules fight:

Kickboxing, Low Kick Kickboxing, K1 Rules does the name matter?

From the desk of CJP.

All I want to see is the BEST fighters fighting the BEST fighters! There's too many organisations about these days to be worried about or decide which one is best! This very politically bound sport seems to create close working circles, which are sometimes harder to break into than a forts Port Cullis! 

Just by looking at our fighters web site at www.whitescorpion.moonfruit.com it is simple to see by their accolades they and I have been associated with most of the top organisations on many occasions over the many years we have been on the amateur and professional fight circuit and we still are.

It's not even about belts for me or like minded coaches, its about the most important things in the equation, the FIGHTERS.

Do coaches/managers push their fighters in certain directions or make too big a financial demand to try and make the possibility of matchmaking so difficult that the proposed matches may never happen?

I know that as a fighter myself, in the years that have passed so quickly, I wanted to fight the best and so do my own students now.

I have two fighters in mind who have more than proved themselves on many occasions and have both fought and won at world level, who are prepared to challenge any fighter who believes they are at the top of their game. 

Whilst many a fighter, who may be seen as an underdog and probably do not have much to lose are happy to raise a challenge it appears some fighters elevate quickly through media and then think they are too good to face real challenges that they do not have to travel abroad for.

Some of the blame lies with promoters too, who's interests are purely financial and see certain fighters as a monetary asset, which is understandable in some ways but it shouldn't mean they are locked into their grasp with ball and chain. As stated many of the BFKKO/WFKKO Champions are champions within ISKA, WAKO, WKA, etc and they are never questioned when contending for another organsations title or defence.
