In Episode 10 of the Leeds Open Series, we meet Caleb O’Connor from Limavady Titans, Northern Ireland, a club that keeps producing champions.

Caleb took home the Peewees Grand Championship – Battle of the Tiny’s at this year’s Leeds Open, adding another huge result to an already impressive young career. 🏆

We catch up with Caleb to talk about:
🥇 What he’s won
🙏 Who he wants to thank
🥊 What it meant to win at the Leeds Open
👀 Whether we’ll be seeing him back again next year

There was only one slight problem…

Caleb was absolutely not interested in becoming a YouTube star. 😂

Super shy on camera, but definitely not shy when it comes to competing.

Another exciting young talent coming through Limavady Titans, and one we’re looking forward to watching develop over the next few years.

🥊 EPISODE 09: JOSH LEONARD IS READY TO DOMINATE THE JUNIORS

In Episode 09 of the Leeds Open Series, we catch up with Josh Leonard from Andrew Hicks Karate School in Peterborough after a huge day at this year’s event.

Josh had only just turned 14, but stepped into the Junior Boys 14–17 section, won it… and still described it as his warm-up. 😂

Why? Because the main target for the day was the Junior Open Weight.

We have a fun conversation with Josh about his mindset going into the competition, why he was so focused on the Open Weight, and what he wants to achieve now that he’s entering the next stage of his junior career.

At just 14, he’s already looking ahead to the next year or two and has his sights firmly set on making his mark across the WAKO, WKU and WKC circuits.

🥊 EPISODE 06: THE SECRET BEHIND TEAM KMA | BEN THATCHER

In Episode 06 of the Leeds Open Series, we sit down with Ben Thatcher from Kaiju Martial Arts to talk about one of the biggest strengths behind the team — their support base.

Ben explains just how important it is to have people behind you at competitions, and how KMA have built what the Leeds Open call the KMA Army, with a target of bringing at least 30 supporters to every event.

It’s more than just having people in the crowd. It’s about creating an atmosphere, backing every fighter, and making sure nobody steps onto the mats alone.

We also talk about the team’s journey this year and what lies ahead as they prepare for the WKC World Championships.
