A Long-Awaited Showdown to Redefine the Light Heavyweight Division

The XTB KSW 122 event, scheduled for October 10, 2024, in Rzeszów, is shaping up to be one of the year’s biggest MMA events in Europe. At the center of the card: an explosive light heavyweight clash between Sergiusz Zając, ranked third in KSW, and Bartosz Szewczyk, ranked fifth. This fight is more than just a matchup—it could completely reshape the division’s landscape.


With an impressive record, Zając, nicknamed "The Tank of Rzeszów", embodies raw power. Out of his nine fights, he has eight wins by KO, including seven in the first round. His last bout against Damian Piwowarczyk, despite a loss, was hailed as the "Fight of the Night" for its intensity. Opposite him, Szewczyk, the FEN light heavyweight champion, brings a rare technical dimension. His expertise in sambo and fights across three continents make him a formidable opponent, capable of destabilizing Zając with a masterful ground game.


Two Radically Opposing Fight Philosophies

What makes this duel so captivating is the clash of two worlds. Zając, a fan of explosive boxing, relies on rapid combinations and devastating striking. In contrast, Szewczyk, trained in sambo, favors throws and submissions, turning every exchange into a physical chess match. Their confrontation promises a spectacle where technique and power will collide.


Observers are wondering: will raw power or technical mastery prevail? One thing is certain: this fight could be the turning point that propels one of these two fighters to the top of the light heavyweight hierarchy. MMA fans in Poland and beyond now have to wait until October 10 to witness this highly anticipated clash.

Editor's Opinion
By Nakmen
Ah, this Zając vs Szewczyk showdown is as heavy as a T-Rex in a sumo match! The Tank of Rzeszów vs the sambo maniac—it’s the battle between "I’ll punch you until you drop" and "I’ll spin you like a top before I lift you." Kind of like Batman vs the Joker, but with more sweat and fewer evil schemes. Szewczyk’s got style, but Zając is the kind of guy who makes you regret eating three pizzas before the fight. That said, if Szewczyk manages to take him down once, we might just get a Fight of the Year-style showdown like Predator vs Indiana Jones. Stay tuned, but watch out for the bruises—this one’s gonna hurt.
