Sell-out audience enjoy Max Force Muay Thai show

Date published: 13 December 2022


The Lees-based Max Force gym put on a superb Muay Thai show for an audience of around 500 at the Uppermill Civic Hall.

There was 32 bouts taking place on the night, ranging from juniors to C-class clashes.

Teams from France and Ireland were among those who competed.

Max Force had seven fighters in action on the day, and had four wins, two losses and a fantastic demo bout.

Daniel Dissington defended his IMTF area title at 81kg against a local lad from Oldham.

"It was a fantastic bout which was won by Dan unanimously," said Bradley Tunnacliffe, Head Coach at Max Force.

"We also had a young lad, Connor Maclennan, who is just 11 years old, being our first student to have an international fight against Ireland, which we also won unanimously.

"Our other fighters were called Khyla, Miley, Jacob, Theo and Cameron, and they all performed superbly.

"Myself and Shaunna Pratt are very, very proud of our students, who all have an exciting future in this sport.

"The show was a sell out - over 500 people were in the audience - and there were some exciting fights.

"Shaunna and I couldn't be prouder of the effort our students put in, both inside and outside of the ring, as we put on a fantastic show."
