This Saturday, November 14, KSW 56 takes place from Lodz, Poland, and there is a Poland vs. Croatia theme throughout the night.
It was a year ago this week that KSW made its debut in Croatia. KSW 51 took place at the Arena Zagreb on November 9 last year with over 10,000 fans in attendance. Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, KSW couldn’t return this year to the beautiful city of Zagreb but instead is staging a huge event for Croatian MMA in Poland this weekend.
KSW welterweight champion Roberto Soldic (17-3) steps up to the middleweight division to face former champ Michal Materla (29-7) in the main event while the undefeated Ivan Erslan (9-0) challenges Tomasz Narkun (17-3) for the light heavyweight title in the co-main event.
