His opponent was Dutch fighter Andre Mannaart, an undisputed world champion in kickboxing and Thai Boxing. Although the fight ended in a draw, it brought him to the attention of Akira Maeda, the president of Fighting Network RINGS, a major Japanese promotions company.

On April 20, 1996, Hasdell won the Oktagon Challenge, an eight man Shoot Boxing tournament held in Milan, Italy. The tournament featured eight fighters from all over the world, representing eight different martial arts. Hasdell went through to the final with two impressive knockouts over American Scott Dobbs and Italian Judo champion Paulo Di Clemente.

He ended up staying with RINGS for six years, he was promoted to the Shooter category and was given the nickname ‘The Gatekeeper’, if a fighter from another organisation wanted to join RINGS they had to beat Hasdell first.

Hasdell was then scheduled to face British fighter James Zikic on March 11 at Millennium Brawl 2, but pulled out due to an eye injury received in training. This was the third eye injury since receiving his first against Volk Han, back in December. After this incident Hasdell took most of the year off.

Promoter

The show featured Thai Boxing, Vale Tudo and RINGS Rule Shoot fighting matches. Hasdell then went on to promote another four shows in the late 90s in which Hasdell himself fought in. These were the first mixed martial arts events in Britain.
Media criticism
Criticism of Mixed martial arts in the UK began as early as 1995, after Lee Hasdell's martial arts event which took place in Milton Keynes. The main event featured Lee Hasdell against American free fighter Boston Jones, the match was billed as the first ultimate Shoot fight. It was the first Shoot fight in Britain. Later Hasdell promoted the first Mixed martial arts show in Britain, Total Fight Night, on October 5, 1997. More shows followed and after Hasdell's fourth event Night of the Samurai 3 on March 7, 1999, there was even more controversy on whether the sport should be banned or not.
Total Fighting was criticised on Trevor McDonald's Tonight (TV series) programme shown on July 22, 1999. During this time Hasdell featured on Nightlife LWT and other News programmes. Total Fighting was often compared to the UFC which at the time had very few rules compared to Lee Hasdell's Total Fighting, which was based on Hasdell's fighting under RINGS rules. Criticism continued and on March 15, 2000 as Lee Hasdell and Total Fighting also appeared on Johnny Vaughan's The Big Breakfast .[23] [24]
