FightBox is proud to announce that King of Kings, one of the most recognizable brands of kickboxing, will return to live action from Tallinn, Estonia on Saturday May, 7th 2022 starting at 6:00 pm CEST (7:00 pm in Estonia).
After taking a break in the month of April, KOK is back with their next big event happening in Tallinn, Estonia. Historically, Tallinn has always been a hot sport for KOK and this event promises to be another ground-breaking night.
The main attraction of the evening is a huge rematch featuring two of KOK’s top bantamweight fighters. Norway’s Simon Santana will square off once again with Estonia’s Marko Moisar, this time for the KOK European Bantamweight Title. The last time these two crossed paths it turned out to be an emotionally-charged confrontation with Santana ending the fight in the second round with low kicks. However, since that fight in October of 2018, Santana has not set foot in a KOK ring. This will also be the first time that KOK has hosted any kind of male Bantamweight Title Fight.
Also, the winner of the 2022 KOK Lightweight WGP Tournament in Vilnius, Lithuania back in March, Hubert Dylewski, returns to KOK to take on one of Estonia’s best Welterweights, Hendrik Themas. Last time we saw Themas he went the distance with current KOK Welterweight Champion Chico Kwasi. A win here for Themas could put him right back near the top of the rankings. It will also be interesting to see how Dylewski will adapt to the higher weight division.
On another note, KOK will once again make history as for the very first time in the promotion’s 20 year history, a professional wrestling match will take place inside the KOK ring when Dylan Broda and TT Suosala, two wrestlers from Finland’s Slam Wrestling, will show what they can do. The full fight card for the evening can be found below.
