LONDON — The United Kingdom’s own Louis “The Razor” Robinson is ready to carve out his name on the biggest stage in slap fighting. The reigning BritSlap Champion makes his highly anticipated Power Slap debut in Saudi Arabia against No. 6 ranked James Siekmann, and he’s not here to blend in — he’s here to make a statement.
“This has been a long time coming,” Robinson told Slap News. “I’ve put a lot of work in for this, so I’m excited to get started.”
From BritSlap Champion to the Power Slap Global Stage
Robinson isn’t another untested rookie getting thrown into the fire. He’s a proven name in the UK slap fighting scene — a man who’s earned his stripes.
“I’ve been following and training for this sport since mid-2021,” he explained. “We made the sport a science in this country. We’re working on it every single day.”
The results speak for themselves. After going the distance in his debut, Robinson rebounded with back-to-back first-round knockouts to claim the BritSlap title. That highlight-reel power quickly caught the attention of Power Slap brass.
“They’d noticed me after my first win,” Robinson said. “But after my last fight went viral, it really kicked off. BritSlap was in touch with Power Slap, a bit of back and forth — and next thing, we had a contract signed.”
“He’s Getting Cracked Every Time — This Time, He Goes to Sleep”
Standing across from Robinson on debut night is James Sieckmann, a battle-tested Power Slap veteran known for his toughness and heavy hands. Robinson, however, believes Sieckmann’s durability has its limits.
“Obviously he’s got good power, he’s proved his chin,” Robinson said. “But every time he’s getting cracked, it’s wearing away. I think this is the time when he goes to sleep. Not talking TKO — I’m talking sleeping.”
It’s a bold claim, but the Brit isn’t lacking confidence. Power Slap officials clearly share that faith, giving him a top-10 ranked opponent straight out of the gate.
A Career-Changing Opportunity
Robinson knows exactly how big this moment is — both professionally and personally.
“Financially, it’s a step up from BritSlap,” he said. “All the sacrifices, all the hours in the gym — it’s finally going to mean something. It’s finally paying off.”
The Saudi Arabia debut marks not just Robinson’s introduction to the Power Slap world, but the first time many global fans will see what British slap fighting truly looks like.
“If I can replicate one of my knockouts from BritSlap here, it’s going to go viral again,” Robinson smiled. “We’re talking millions of views. Power Slap’s reach is massive — this is where you build your name.”
Experience Over Hype
Unlike many newcomers, Robinson has already faced the nerves, pressure, and raw violence of live slap competition. That experience, he believes, will be the key difference.
“There’s only so much you can replicate hitting a pad or a wall ball,” he said. “Once you’re out there and you actually get hit — your nerves kick in, you’ve got to stay calm, control your aggression, remember your training, and execute. That’s something I’ve already learned the hard way.”
Flying the Flag for the UK
For Robinson, this debut isn’t just about himself — it’s about representing a country he believes is destined to dominate slap fighting.
“Oh absolutely, the flag’s coming out with me,” he said proudly. “The UK’s known for producing warriors in every combat sport. This’ll just be another one we take over.”
And with whispers of a future Power Slap event in the UK, the timing couldn’t be better.
“If Power Slap came to Britain, it’d be wild,” he said. “The fight fans here are another breed. You’ve seen what happens when the UFC comes over — every event sells out, every crowd’s mental. Power Slap and the British fans? That’s a perfect match.”
“Steel Beats Iron”
Heading into fight week, Robinson isn’t overcomplicating his game plan. He knows what he brings to the table — and he’s ready to deliver it on command.
“The key is staying calm under pressure,” he said. “I know I’m the underdog from the American perspective, and that’s fine. I just need to do what I do best — put James to sleep.”
And when asked for a message to his opponent, Robinson didn’t hesitate.
“James knows what’s going to happen. I want this to ring in his mind when he walks up there — steel beats iron.”
