KIDDERMINSTER kickboxer Drew Neal has enhanced his glowing reputation with a further three titles as he closes in on a clean sweep of the sport's top prizes.

Neal made it three out of three in three weeks with success in England, Ireland and Austria.

He retained the British WAKO title for the fifth year running with success in the Nottingham.

Then he flew to Ireland to win the minus-84 -kilos category at the Irish open.

And Neal triumphed in the same weight section at the Austrian Open, where he also finished joint top in the under ground championship with Top Ten team-mate Sam Timmis.

The CMA freestyle club member, who is coached by Jason Charlesworth in Old Hill, is planning to open a club of his own in Kidderminster.

"He's getting stronger after each tournament and his reputation is growing throughout Europe," said Charlesworth.
