Maciej Turski had to tap rather quickly as Mateusz Gamrot put him in an elevated guillotine choke, which left the Polish host gasping for breath.

Gamrot recently appeared on Hejt Park, a popular Polish internet sports show, where the host Maciej Turski discussed Gamrot’s most recent win against Arman Tsarukyan.

The two lightweight contenders fought last month in Las Vegas, Nevada, where MMA fans were treated to some of the highest levels of grappling and transitions as Tsarukyan and Gamort went the distance. Mateusz Gamort took him a close-fought unanimous decision victory as he rallied together late, winning the latter half of the fight.

Mateusz Gamrot shows off his BJJ Black Belt Skills On A Radio Show Host

This win boosted Gamort’s popularity not only among MMA fans but also among the casual audience, as they witnessed Gamort’s heart and grit and overall game. This prompted Maciej Turski to invite Gamrot onto his show, in order to demonstrate a few submission holds.

Perhaps the BJJ black belt went a little too far when he snatched Turski’s neck in a front headlock position, leaning back and elevating Turski off his feet, causing him to tap in seconds as he neared passing out.

But it seems like Turski was game as he played the part of a training dummy for multiple submissions. Gamrot no doubt had fun showing off his submission arsenal on the Polish host.

Apart from Hejt Park, we are likely to see Mateusz Gamrot attempting to choke out other people relatively soon inside the octagon as his win against Tsarukyan catapulted him near the top of the Lightweight division.

Jason Wilnis Wants To Fight Both Israel Adesanya & Alex Pereira In MMA After Beating Them In Kickboxing

KSW fighter Jason Wilnis is aiming for second encounters with Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira down the line.

KSW fighter Jason Wilnis is aiming for second encounters with Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira down the line.

Former GLORY middleweight kickboxing champion Jason Wilnis has transitioned into the sport of mixed martial arts after a decorated career as a striker. In his time competing in the sport, Wilnis crossed paths with current UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and beat him in the contest.

Wilnis followed this up with another significant win over Alex Pereira, widely known to be the only man to have knocked out ‘Stylebender’ in a fight. Pereira holds a win over the 31-year-old but has fallen to him on two occasions.

Jason Wilnis sees himself fighting Israel Adesanya

Ahead of his third outing inside the octagon at KSW 70, Jason Wilnis talked about the possibility of facing Adesanya and Pereira now that they all compete in MMA.

“Everybody can say what they want,” Wilnis said. “I’m not a big talker, but I have two wins over Pereira, he has one win over me. I have one win over Adesanya. I even have a win over Joe Schilling, [and] he has one win over me.

“I can compare with these guys, and even in MMA, I can do a lot more than I do in kickboxing. So we’re working on it, and I can’t wait to rematch these guys again and show them my skills. My skill level in MMA.” (h/t MMA Fighting)

Wilnis goes into the bout with two wins on his fresh record that includes one knockout. He’ll be looking to extend his win tally to three and hand fellow undefeated prospect Rados?aw Paczuski the first loss of his career.

While he acknowledged that it may be in the distant future as of now, Wilnis does see himself crossing paths with both of his former opponents.

“We have a lot of kickboxing experience,” Wilnis said. “Of course, it helps us in the cage time. It helps because we start standing up. We are kickboxing, so we know what stand-up is like.

“We have our different paths, but maybe we can see each other in the UFC later. I think that’s the plan for me, for Alex Pereira also. He wants to fight Adesanya. I also want to fight one of them. Different paths but somewhere the same goal.”

Martyn Ford Plans MMA Run With KSW Following Cancelled Fight Against Iranian Hulk

British bodybuilder, Martyn Ford has confirmed that he plans to pursue a run in professional mixed martial arts under the banner of European promotion, KSW – after a scheduled boxing match against fellow bodybuilder, Sajad Gharibi, otherwise known as the ‘Iranian Hulk’ was shelved recently. Ford, a native of Minworth, who turns 40 years of […]

Ford, a native of Minworth, who turns 40 years of age later this month, was scheduled to fight Gharibi in a boxing matchup, with the two engaging in a face-off prior to the bout, which included in a pre-fight scuffle – before the planned pairing was ultimately cancelled.

Martyn Ford plans a professional mixed martial arts birth in October

Prior to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Ford intended to embark on a professional mixed martial arts run with KSW – and is still hoping to land a fight under the Polish-based banner, later this year, in fact.

“One hundred per cent I am planning on getting involved in MMA,” Martyn Ford told Mirror Fighting during a recent interview. “I am already speaking to KSW. This is something that was set pre-COVID. I have still been doing pieces of Jiu-Jitsu and stuff. They (KSW) are looking at coming to London in October, and that is an event I would love to get involved with.”

As far as potential opponents are concerned, Ford insisted that any potential fight would have to come against the right calibre of fighter for him.

“It just needs to be the right person and right time, my feelers have been put out there to try and get this set up as soon as possible,” Martyn Ford said. “I understand the frustration from people about not yet seeing me fight. I am still training, (the) only thing I am not doing is active sparring. I have switched back into its resistance and explosive power.”

“If something does happen which I am hoping I can sign up too soon, I have been training and dedicating so much time and effort to it,” Martyn Ford said. “I need to do it for my own mental state, to be honest, anyone will understand the frustration I am going through at the moment.”

Russian MMA Fighter Shamil Musaev Has KSW Bout Canceled Amidst Ukraine Invasion

Undefeated MMA fighter Shamil Musaev won’t compete at the upcoming KSW 68 card as his home country, Russia continues to wage war on Ukraine.

Musaev was slated to face an unnamed opponent at KSW 68 in Radom, Poland. He was coming off a draw against Michal Pietrzak at KSW 64 after earning three-straight wins to start his promotional tenure.

KSW announced the news on their social media.

KSW Axes Shamil Musaev’s Fight Amidst Ukraine Invasion

Due to the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine, KSW has made a tough, albeit ethically justifiable, decision to cancel Russian fighter Shamil Musaev’s fight, which was scheduled for KSW 68 on March 19th in Radom.

“Due to the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine, KSW has made a tough, albeit ethically justifiable, decision to cancel Russian fighter Shamil Musaev’s fight, which was scheduled for KSW 68 on March 19th in Radom,” KSW said.

It’s not yet clear whether or not Musaev will get a fight for a later date, or will remain sidelined indefinitely during the conflict.

Musaev’s dismissal is the latest domino to fall in the sport of MMA since Russia invaded Ukraine last week. Current Bellator welterweight champion Yaroslav Amosov is staying in Ukraine to help defend his people against the Russian attack.

Boxing legends Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko are also on the front lines fighting against Russian forces. Vitali is the mayor of Kyiv, the most prominent city in the country, and a focal point of the invasion.

Musaev’s dismissal also comes amidst FIFA’s indefinite ban of the Russian National Team from international competition, just before their previously scheduled World Cup Qualifier match.

Poland is seen as a geopolitical ally to Ukraine and their move against Musaev is a message that they won’t tolerate the ongoing crisis just to the south of the country.

KSW Confirms Blockbuster Main Event For KSW 65

KSW will be ending 2021 with a bang after the promotion officially confirmed the main and co-main events of KSW 65, which is set to take place on December 18 at the Gliwice Arena in Gliwice, Poland.

Headlining the card will be a mouth-watering champ vs. champ clash between KSW’s middleweight king Mamed Khalidov and welterweight champion, Roberto Soldic. The 26-year-old Soldic is riding a six-fight winning streak and will be looking to take Khalidov’s crown when the pair face off in their middleweight bout.

The Croatian fighter dipped his toe into the middleweight division previously when he took on and defeated Micha? Materla at KSW 56. However, taking on Khalidov, one of the biggest names in KSW is an altogether different proposition.

The 41-year-old recaptured his middleweight title with a stunning first-round KO of Scott Askham at KSW 55. Khalidov unleashed a mid-air switch kick which caught Askham flush on his jaw, instantly ending his night. It was the type of performance that reminded everyone why he is one of the most exciting middleweights in MMA.

In Soldic, Khalidov will square off against a known KO artist, with 90% of his wins coming via stoppage. The bout looks set to be one of those encounters where fireworks are almost guaranteed.

Austria’s Daniel Torres will defend his featherweight title against former champion Salahdine Parnasse in the co-main event. Torres stopped Parnasse in the opening round of their title fight at KSW 58, and Parnasse will be looking to avenge the first loss of his career and reclaim his featherweight strap.

KSW 65 will be available to watch online at www.KSWTV.com. There will be more announcements about the card in the coming weeks.
