The UK promotion Hitman Fight League will host its second ever event on June 10, at the Bowlers Exhibition Centre in Manchester, UK.
The card features a WMO International title fight, where teenage superstar Joe Ryan will take on the dangerous Danish-Moroccan Youssef Assouik for the 72,5 kilo title.
Since turning pro, Ryan has grown into a force of nature in the ring. He won and defended the WBC Muay Thai European title, and is now set the biggest challenges of young career.
The experienced Assouik has 76 wins, with 42 of them coming by way of knockout.
During the years, the five-time World champion has beaten some of the best middleweights around and comes from a win over ONE Championship’s Jimmy Vienot.
