KIDDERMINSTER kickboxing star Drew Neal continued to gear up for November's WAKO World Championships in France with a series of strong performances.
Neal finished third at the Irish Open, before competing in the Austrain Classic event, where he came second in his weight category after losing to Germany's Harald Schmidt.
He also captained Great Britain to victory in the team event, after they defeated the best quartets in the world.
Neal topped that when he and three other European fighters went to America and defeated all their top teams.
He will be teaching seminars in Slovenia and Austria during the summer, before stepping up his preparations for the World Championships in Marseille.
