In the Supreme Court of Queensland case of Tasman Fighters Pty Ltd v Teremoana [2024] QSC 226, Tasman Fighters sought an interlocutory injunction to prevent the respondent, Teremoana Teremoana, a professional boxer, from participating in boxing matches without their consent due to a dispute over a promotion agreement. Teremoana, having signed an exclusive agreement with another promoter, argued that Tasman Fighters had breached their agreement, which prompted him to rescind it. Judge Martin SJA, upon hearing the case, decided to grant the injunction sought by Tasman Fighters after determining that the applicant demonstrated a probable prima facie case for success and that the balance of convenience lay in their favor. The court ordered that Teremoana must not engage in any boxing activities or promotions without Tasman Fighters' written consent until further notice. Additionally, the undertaking regarding damages was adequately provided by the applicant and relevant stakeholders, ensuring coverage for potential losses until trial.
