On Saturday April 1, striking league Karate Combat finally returns to Miami after five years.
The Karate Combat 38 fight card is headlined by a rematch between bitter rivals, ‘Turbo’ Ross Levine and Igor ‘The Iberian Bull’ de Castaneda who will clash in a middleweight title bout.
In the co-main event, bantamweight champion Eoghan Chelmiah will take on Jesus Lopez in a heated rematch.
The pair first clashed at Karate Combat 37, where Lopez incorrectly was announced as the winner due to scorecards being tallied incorrectly at the end of the title fight. The judges’ scorecards had in fact Chelmiah as the winner by split-decision.
”I am the Champion of the World. Chelmiah has lost my respect, totally,” Lopez said after the fight.
Now the two will settle the score in Miami.
