Two title fights were expected, but current KOK Middleweight Champion Daniel Forsberg pulled out of the fight at the last minute citing an illness. However, his countryman Pok Biil was able to capture the KOK World Featherweight Championship by defeating a very tough Igor Osinin in a bout that went the full five rounds.
