An official website of Pro-TKD says, “Unfortunately, TKD is not adequately represented in the media, especially on TV. Competitions take a long time, and our champions are not recognized as stars by the media. After having analyzed the situation with other popular sports, we have found that the public is attracted exclusively and only by professional fights, and that the planetary popularity of certain sports is due to their professional form of competition.”
To promote development of TKD into a top professional sport they have decided to invite 8 best world heavy-weight fighters, and organize a glamorous performance in front of TV cameras with a reward of USD 30,000 in cash for the Champion.
