FRANCE: An old style

Thank you. Really very nice performance. I like it.

USA: Who wants to buy and who to sell savate?

In a Commonwealth countries boxer from GB can compete for almost all commonwealth countries if he wants, the same problem exist in Francophone countries. All other stories about the good, bad and the ugly are waste of time. In 2010 we saw unsuccesful kickboxing forum in Switzerland and these days guys ... kickboxing is in real troubles because of many, many strong fractions.
