On Saturday 9th May British Karate Kyokushinkai organized 2015 English Open Knockdown Tournament.
U.K. IKO MATSUSHIMA branch was represented at this event by two fighters: Senpai Krzysztof Wasilewski 2nd dan and Martin Pugh 5th kyu. Martin fought well but lost on judges’ decision after extension to the second place getter in his category.
Krzysztof fought very well from the very beginning. He was able to show his powerful high kicks and his flexibility as well as good mental preparation and strong stamina.
I’m very proud to report that senpai Krzysztof Wasilewski of UK, IKO Matsushima Branch is 2015 heavy weight English knock down champion.
