Get Ready for CFS25: The Ultimate Fight Night Returns to Sevenoaks

After three consecutive sell-out shows in Sevenoaks, Combat Fight Series (CFS) returns to Sevenoaks Leisure Centre on 5th July for its fourth explosive night of elite Muay Thai and K1 action. The arena has reached its 750-capacity limit every time, and CFS25 promises to raise the bar yet again.

What Is Combat Fight Series (a.k.a. CFS)?

Founded by former European Muay Thai champion Rory Crawford, CFS has grown from a grassroots passion project into one of the UK’s most respected fight promotions. With a background steeped in elite competition, Rory built CFS to showcase top-tier talent and bring the thrill of world-class fight nights to local venues.

Since launching the first event in 2019, CFS has expanded rapidly, adding shows in London, Bournemouth, Leicester, Penzance and St Albans to the calendar. Rory’s ambition? To run one event every month in 2026.

You can learn more about Rory and the story behind CFS, plus what to expect at their events in our previous blog:

Muay Thai vs K1 – What’s the Difference?

If you’re new to the scene, you’ll hear both Muay Thai and K1 rules mentioned. Here’s a quick guide:

Muay Thai (Thailand’s national sport) allows punches, kicks, knees, elbows, and clinching.
K1 is similar but slightly more restricted – elbows and extended clinching are not allowed. It’s fast-paced, explosive and often more suited to kickboxers transitioning into the sport.

Both styles will be featured at CFS25, showcasing the best of each discipline.

Massive Card, Massive Stakes

What makes this card truly special? Three number 1 ranked fighters are defending their spot – a rare occurrence in any fight night:

Tyree Stevens defending his UK #1 spot against Marc Campbell
Tom Kirk defending his UK #1 spot against Jamie Petch
Leonie Hardman defending her UK #1 spot against Daniele Butler

On top of that, two world title fights are scheduled, making this one of the most stacked cards in CFS history.

The Local Buzz

One of Rory’s favourite parts of bringing CFS to Sevenoaks is seeing the new faces it attracts – from families and curious first-timers to Leisure Centre staff poking their heads in to watch the action. Whether you’re in the know or not, CFS has a way of turning casual observers into vocal supporters by round two.
