On Saturday, at the “TwinsBet” Arena in Vilnius, the prestigious KOK HERO’S/MMA Bushido tournament will take place, featuring well-known martial arts representatives such as Raimondas Krilavičius, Danielius Grėbliūnas, Tomas Pakutinskas, Samuelis and Benas Šorochovas, Evaldas Balsys, and others.
During the press conference, special attention was given to an intriguing matchup between two extraordinary personalities. In a professional boxing duel, renowned Kaunas businessman Justas Leščiukaitis will face popular performer and music creator Edgaras Limontas (Proflame). To show support for his childhood friend Justas and to ask questions to the fighters, Roland Mackevičius himself attended the press conference.
The evening will also feature a lightweight Grand Prix tournament (up to -71kg), where Lukas Grigaitis, Evaldas Balsys, Benas Šorochovas, and Deividas Michnevičius will compete. During the press conference, the four fighters exchanged sharp glances with each other, making it clear to everyone present that tomorrow’s event in the arena will certainly be full of intensity.
Raimondas Krilavičius faces an especially difficult challenge, as he will fight against the controversial Dutchman Jahfar Gezzi in tomorrow’s match. During their face-off, Raimondas appeared completely relaxed, confident, and 100% sure of himself.
An equally intriguing fight awaits Danielius Grėbliūnas. After learning of his opponent’s recent injury, the Lithuanian didn’t hesitate to accept the challenge of an even stronger fighter. He will now face Dutch judoka (black belt) and BJJ purple belt holder Carlo Vrolijken.
