More action for Team Noel Kickboxing Club's fighters as Keith 'Speed' Azzopardi, Jesred Piscopo and Celeste Galea will be facing French opponents in Paris on Saturday 13th April during a kickboxing and K1 event - 'Fighters Level Up'.
Azzopardi will be taking part in a professional bout against Yannis El Hajaoui and will be fighting in the 62kg - 64kg weight division. Galea will be facing Cassandra Mocquery in the C Class category, fighting in the 64kg weight division whilst Piscopo will compete against Guillaume Parietti. Piscopo's bout will be a Semi-Pro fight and the athletes will be battling it out in the 68kg - 70kg weight division. This event will be broadcasted live on Radio Kardeche's Facebook page with repetitions every morning on Canal+ Sport as from Wednesday 17th April.
This is not the first time that these talented athletes made a name for our country with the various competitions they participated in along with multiple honors received throughout their respective kickboxing careers up till now.
A classic example is Keith 'Speed' Azzopardi. Just thirteen days after his encounters in Paris, he will be travelling to Kazan, Russia to compete in the Tatneft World Cup which will be held on Friday 26th April. Azzopardi will be fighting in a professional K1 bout against the Chinese fighter Ziqiang Zanq 'The Eagle'.
If Azzopardi is successful in the said fight, he will qualify to compete in upcoming bouts leading to the cup's final being held in December of this year.
It is good to point out that Keith 'Speed' Azzopardi will be the first ever Maltese fighter to compete at such high levels in Russia.
