The full interview with Freedom Fighter Promotions Promoter and CEO, Rami “The Son of Palestine” Ibrahim is above.

This Friday, April 29, New York is in for a surprise! Freedom Fighter Promotions 5 goes returns to the beautiful and historic Roosevelt Ballroom. With just days away from fight night, Promoter and CEO of Freedom, Rami Ibrahim has already dubbed this show “the biggest professional Muay Thai event in the history of New York.”

Multiple fan favorites and defending champions, such as “Speedy” Petey Anagnostidis, Dillian Joucoo, as well as Taj Rueda will return to action on the evening. Added to an already impeccable card, a professional main card that is full of all-stars such as Richard Abraham, Izjadin Bekteshi will be featured on the bill. The evening being capped off with Ethan “Kid Wolverine” Geffen defending his Freedom Fighter Promotions Super Lightweight World Championship against Brandon Maisonet in the main event of the evening.

All the showings are in place to produce an epic and beautiful display of Muay Thai. With an incredibly diverse and stacked card.

Freedom Fighter Promotions CEO and Promoter, Rami Ibrahim has poured his soul into raising the bar when it comes to Muay Thai in America. With only 4 shows in the books, Ibrahim had spearheaded one of the fastest-growing pro/am promotions in the United States in quite some time.

“I’m giving them what I would’ve wanted, Ibrahim says about his roster full of All-stars. For example, “I didn’t really have much exposure overseas,” Ibrahim says. “For a fighter to get exposure outside of his city, state, country, you need a promoter that is going to promote you and I didn’t have that,” Ibrahim continues. “That’s what I’m trying to do now,” he continues. “You see I’m bringing fighters from all over the world.”

With several superstars on previous cards and several announcements already made for the July card, Freedom is setting a new standard for Muay Thai. “They want to be here! They want to be treated right,” Ibrahim confesses. “And I think they see it and I’m just following through, bro. I’m not talking to them like a piece of meat and I’m not talking to them like a promoter,” Ibrahim insists. “And I think they feel that. When I talk to them about getting them a fight and about promoting them, I talk to them like me, and them are one!”
