Rep. Peter King Going in Ring at Kickboxing Club

The congressman will square off against a mixed martial artist this weekend.

Rep. Peter King, R-Seaford, was spotted at the Bellmore Kickboxing Academy Sunday squaring off against mixed martial artist Josh Foley in what was the final meeting before their exhibition match.

The duel will take place Saturday at Mulcahy's in Wantagh at 4 p.m. as a part of Gadiator Promotions' "Battle of the Champions 8." Foley is 5-1-0 in his professional career, and three of his wins have been by knockout.

Until December, King represented part of Plainview and has gone toe-to-toe with political opponents and foreign enemies as Chairman of the powerful House Homeland Security Committee.

"Great training session at Bellmore Kickboxing yesterday with NYS Champion 'Irish' Josh Foley who I'll be boxing in an exhibition bout this Saturday at Mulcahy's in Wantagh at 4 p.m. during Gladiator Promotions Battle of the Champions 8," King wrote on his Facebook page.

Richard, I agree. This road has so many potholes that were fixed, it dips and the county trees haveRead More lifted it up in areas that now hold water. I have ben living here for over 30 years, and I cannot recall it ever being done. It needs to be done soon, I so agree with you. Maybe Mangano will see this and do something, then again if we lived in Bethpage, it would of been done already.
