Darwin's premier combat sporting event
King of the Ring is Performance Gym's flagship combat sporting event.
It is loud, it is local, and every seat is close to the action. Whether you are in the grandstand or on a ringside table, you will feel every round.
Plus, the venue is fully air-conditioned, because in Darwin the only thing that should be sweating is the fighters.
