FightBox is proud to announce that Kunlun Fight, one of the world’s biggest kickboxing organizations, will return to live action from Beijing, China on Saturday July 27th starting at 1:00 pm CEST (7:00 pm local time).
Kickboxing giant Kunlun Fight returns to FightBox with one of the biggest comeback fights ever. 37 year old Surinamese-Dutch kickboxer Andy Ristie shocked the world when he defeated the best pound-for-pound fighter Giorgio Petrosyan at Glory 12 in New York City and then went on to defeat Robin van Roosmalen the same night to become Glory Lightweight Champion. However, Ristie mysteriously disappeared two years later after a defeat. He now makes his return after a four year break to Kunlun Fight. Now we will find out if Andy Ristie is still “The Machine” that we remember.
Also, KLF will be holding an epic one-night, eight-man championship tournament to decide a new Kunlun -75 kg Champion. Fighters from Belarus, China, Thailand and Kazakhstan will all be competing in this prestigious tournament for the KLF championship gold. Who will prove to be the strongest and be able to win three fights in one night? The full fight card for the evening can be found below.
