FightBox is proud to announce that MMA Bushido, one Europe’s longest-running mixed martial arts promotions, returns to live action on Thursday April 8th starting at 7:00 pm CEST.
MMA Bushido, the mixed martial branch of King of Kings, returns the Kazakhstan for the promotion’s third event in the country.
