FightBox is proud to announce that King of Kings, one of the most recognizable brands in kickboxing, will return to live action from Tallinn, Estonia on Saturday October 13th 2018 starting at 6:00 pm CEST.
King of Kings returns to live action for the promotion’s tenth event of 2019 in the Estonian capital of Tallinn. The main attraction of the evening is a four-man -77kg tournament. In the first semi-final match Norway’s Andreas Iversen faces Erkan Varol who is a late replacement for his countryman Sinan Cagala of Turkey. Varol is a veteran kickboxer who has faced many of the top fighters in the world. He also helped co-promote the KOK event in Turkey this past August. In the second semi-final matchup Constantino Nanga of Sweden takes on Estonia’s own Hendrik Themas. Themas has fought twice before against top notch opponents in King of Kings but has yet to pick up a victory. He now has another chance against a tough Swedish challenger, Nanga. The winners of both semi-final fights will meet in the ring at the end of the night to determine the tournament champion.
Also, keep in mind that the current KOK welterweight champion Zaur Dzhavadov will not only be in attendance on this night, but will be in action inside the KOK ring in a non-title fight against Belarusian fighter Yauheni Matsiushonak. Dzhavadov is also scheduled to defend the championship in about one month’s time in his home country of Latvia against the winner of the last -77 kg tournament, Constantin Rusu.
