WKF continues to evolve – 6 titles at one show

For the very first time in history, an official international “WKF Bare Knuckle Hardcore” fight night will be held on February 14th in Korneuburg, Austria.

Promoter is the famous BOXING manager Daniel Z. HIRLAU

Furthermore, two world title fights in boxing are already on the fight card. 

An international European ladies ranking fight in K-1 has also been confirmed.

The Austrian title fight between two young tough boys is confirmed.

The difference compared to other promoters is the official sanction from three genuine world governing bodies, who truly deserve the name.

 

Internationally, our WKF is experiencing a surge in popularity. We have gained many new and strong member nations in Eastern Europe and the Baltic states.

 

For the first time in WKF history, an international title fight will be sanctioned by two world federations!

 

A very special VIP guest is the World President of the ICO from England, Mr. Andrew HENNESSY. ICO Vice President and Supervisor Mr. Thierry MUCCINI is coming to Vienna from Bordeaux.

The work, competition rules, costs, and ultimately the numerous events held across six continents are highly valued internationally.

Our upcoming World Championships, from October 18th to 24th, will also bring many new nations, huge national teams and new friends to Colombia.

Everyone should understand that for genuine, internationally recognized title fights in combat sports, the sanction of at least one major world governing body is necessary.  Otherwise, you’re just “world champion in your local town” and it’s nothing more than the well-known “puppet show” 🙂 

Our new WKF World Partner “triple GGG” from Delaware in the USA has already sanctioned numerous events in Europe and worldwide for 2025/2026. This is one way to bring real fights back to the USA with the WKF in the future. A first WKF title fight in Los Angeles is already being negotiated for 2026! Further WKF events are already confirmed for 2026 in Dubai, Los Angeles, and for the first time in spring in Tokyo (!).

The collaboration with the WKF World Federation and “triple GGG” is already bearing fruit. The WKF World Federation’s reputable and serious work is increasingly appreciated worldwide. A deal is a deal, my friends.
