FightBox is proud to announce that Tatneft Cup Kickboxing, Russia’s biggest kickboxing organization, returns to live action from Kazan, Russia starting at 5:00 pm CEST (6:00 pm local time).
Tatneft is known as one of the top kickboxing organizations in the world. For many years they have cooperated with the best fighters from around the globe. Season 12 is already underway and this Sunday May 26th 2019 "TNA TATNEFT Cup Fights” will once again be live on FightBox for this season’s third stage.
In one of the featured bouts of the evening, Gokhan Gedik of the infamous Mike’s Gym in Holland will take on Viktor Vecherin of Russia in a heavyweight bout at +80 kg. Gedik is no stranger to tournaments, having participated in the FEA Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament last December where he lost to the eventual winner of the tournament, Alexandru Burduja. Now he has a second chance at tournament glory. Also on the card is young Polish prospect Kacper Muszyński who will be in a -70 kg bout against Russia’s Ivan Kondratiev. Muszyński has picked up several key victories in recent times in some of his home country’s biggest promotions such as Makowski Fighting Championship and FEN, and is now looking to make a name for himself internationally. There will also be a special guest at the event, legendary American kickboxer Don "The Dragon" Wilson. The full card can be found below.
