John Kavanagh: I’ll happily step down as IMMAA president when MMA is recognized in Ireland

John Kavanagh has responded to Cage Warriors CEO Graham Boylan’s claims that he is too conflicted to act as Irish Mixed Martial Arts Association (IMMAA) president due to his own activity as a promoter.

Kavanagh recently re-launched his Euro Fight Night promotion and has strong links to Bellator. Recently, Boylan and Kavanagh have clashed on social media due to their respective affiliations with Cage Warriors and Bellator.

Ahead of Cage Warriors 110, Boylan revealed that he had not been contacted by the IMMAA in the lead up to the event, despite the association endeavoring to become the national MMA governing body in Ireland.
