The latest event from the Polish promotion Konfrontacja Sztuk Walki, KSW XV: Revenge is set to take place tonight in Warsaw, Poland and marks the twentieth mma event for that company.

The main event sees James Irvin, who was recently suspended by the California State Athletic Commission for a positive steroid test, square off against promotional champ Mamed Khalidov in a non title bout. Both men had been scheduled to meet in a middleweight match, but both failed to make weight for the bout and have since agreed to a catchweight bout.

Sherdog.com, via MMArocks.pl, noted that “the promotion expected that Irvin would come in overweight, which may explain why Khalidov also failed to make the middleweight limit.”

The event also features a light heavyweight title bout between champion Jan Blachowicz vs. Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou, as well as the promotions lightweight and welterweight tournament Finals.
