KSW is bigger than UFC in Poland.

That’s according to the promotions president Martin Lewandowski who recently visited MMA Hour.

“People want to train KSW here in Poland. That’s what I heard also in U.S., some people want to train UFC. ‘I’m going for UFC training.’ So that’s what is happening also here after 19 years of being in the market,” Lewandowski said.

KSW held its first event back in 2004 and over the years became one of the top European MMA promotions.

”I think that’s the value of being a leader on the market and the pioneer also because we started MMA here in Poland before KSW, it was real underground. So I think that’s what makes us very unique and I think Poland is very unique on the world market, to be honest,” Lewandowski said.

Compares KSW to a ”great concert”

The KSW’s philosophy is to offer the fans more than great MMA fights. The small details make all the difference according to the president.

”From Day 1 when we started KSW it was very important for us not only to get the best fighters on the market and to match the best fights we could probably have at that time, but also the packaging. The production value, all that you can combine when you think about going to great concerts and to see the great MMA fights,” Lewandowski said.
