Young Joshua Merrett's first light continuous kickboxing title fight ended in disappointment with defeat at Bracknell.

The ten-year-old, a member of Berinsfield Shaolin Tigers Kickboxing Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), came up against the defending five-times title holder from the Combat Academy, Suffolk.

He put up a brave and courageous fight, but just missed out.

Several other fighters from the team entered the light continuous with good results.

In the mixed martial arts competition, similar to cage rage/ufc, Dean Grant beat Berinsfield clubmate Tyson Mitchell in the final.

They booked their places in the decider after winning their earlier contests.
