Octopus 8 × BFC 86 combat sports tournament in Minsk

Posted by

One of the most significant international events of the season is being prepared in Minsk – the Octopus 8 × BFC 86 combat sports tournament.

On February 13, Prime Hall will become the venue for a major sports union: two leagues – Octopus and BFC, two key federations – the Russian Kickboxing Federation and the Belarusian Kickboxing Federation, are joining forces to host a tournament of a qualitatively new level. The upcoming event is not a coincidence, but a logical step in a long journey.

The WKF World Cup in Minsk, the Allazov Cup and the alliance with the Octopus league – each milestone has become a stepping stone towards achieving a completely new level of excellence, ultimately shaping a new developmental vector.

The tournament format includes 12 bouts:
6 fights under K1 rules and 6 fights under MMA rules.

The key focus is on professional K1 kickboxing, where spectators can expect pivotal confrontations and rematches as part of a match-up between the Russian and Belarusian national teams.

For the leading kickboxers of the two countries, the tournament will serve as a serious professional platform – an opportunity to make a name for themselves, strengthen their positions, and take the next step in their careers.
