On Saturday 18 April 2015, FightBox HD viewers had a chance to see the Lithuanian edition of FightBox King of Kings Heroes Series 7, which took place in Alytus, a city located on the picturesque Neman river bank. Although the event’s tagline was: One night, one ring, one champion, everyone who took part in this dramatic kickboxing/MMA showcase was a champion.
The biggest fights of the night were full of drama, tough battles, submissions and knockouts. This international show was unofficially a clash between Poland and Lithuania. Unfortunately, Lithuanians won all four fights (three under MMA rules, plus one kickboxing bout). Michał Tarabańka from S4 Fight Team and Darius Minkevicius put on the best performance, with the latter winning by triangle leg choke in the second round. The kickboxing match between Henrikas Viksraitis against Piotr Trześniewski-Tryc ended with a spectacular knockout. The Pole was done after a kick to the head in the second round. The event was broadcasted live on
FightBox HD and online at
