Mr. Andrew HENNESSYMr. Thierry MUCCINI
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 USAwith 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.

Torres is coming directly from Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, with his coach, Luis Mediomundo.
Mediomundo is also the organizer of the upcoming World Championships in Colombia in October 2026.
Two PRO-AM European title fights have also been confirmed:
The Hungarian Girl Olah KINCSÖ competes for Austria and is currently ranked 5th in the world in the Atomweight -48 kgcategory, making her the highest-ranked Austrian competitor.
Daniel TORRES, Colombia, challenger
Her opponent is Renata DINU from Bucharest, ranked No. 4. The fight is for the WKF PRO-AM European title in K-1.
Another WKF PRO-AM European title fight has been confirmed on the fight card!
Cesar ZIDARESCU, ranked No. 12 in the world in the light middleweight -71 kg division, comes from the renowned Tai Shin Do Gym in Bucharest. He is one of the best Romanian fighters in this weight class and will certainly be a big and real challenge for the Austrian fighter, Felix ELLMAIER.
As a medalist at the European Championships, the Romanian is definitely not a pushover or a handpicked opponent! This is something that has unfortunately often been the case with smaller promoters in the past.
As in previous years, the first VIP tickets have already been sold, and a few tickets are still available for the stands!
WKF World Amateur President Carlos Suárez from Buenos Aires, has been confirmed as a referee and representative for Latin America and will be special guest and ringside in Austria.
