In the co-main, KSW’s recently dethroned bantamweight champion Sebastian Przybysz will seek to bounce back against Filip Maca, a former Oktagon title challenger making his KSW debut. Przybrsz lost his belt via a slim split decision and will no doubt be desperate to get back to winning ways as soon as possible, while Maca has a golden opportunity to make his own case for a title shot in his very first fight in the organization.
Rest of the Card
Another high profile bout will see Ukranian Bogdan Gnidko battling Rafał Kijańczuk at light heavyweight. In addition, Cage Warriors alumni Donovan Desmae will lock horns with Georgian veteran Raul Tutarauli. Desmae challenged for the Cage Warriors Lightweight strap and lost by split decision, giving him a lot to prove in KSW. Tutarauli on the other hand has had a lot of experience in fearsome organizations like ACA and M-1.
Also on the card will be a women’s strawweight contest between Anita Bekus and Aleksandra Toncheva, a lightweight clash between Gracjan SzadziÅ„ski and Wilson Varela, and a catchweight matchup between Robert Maciejowski and Wiktor Zalewski at 174.2 lbs.
