On the night of January 2, 2024, the bodies of 27-year-old kickboxing world champion Alexander Malafeev and his friends 26-year-old kickboxing trainer Artem Ivanov and 27-year-old Ruslan Shakhmardanova were discovered in one of the private houses in the suburbs of Tver, Russia.
The necessary investigations were ordered to determine the cause of death. All circumstances surrounding the incident are being clarified.
Alexander Malafeev was WKF World Kickboxing Champion 2019. Bronze medalist of the 2021 World Championship, champion of the SCO Open Championship 2023.
For many compatriots, Alexander Malafeev was a role model in martial arts.
World Kickboxing Federation WKF expresses its sincere condolences to the athlete’s family and friends.
The official poster from WKF ARGENTINA has arrived!
Austrian World Champion Alexandra “GODZILLA” PETRE will step into the ring against the absolute No. 1 in Latin America and world champion Sabrina FLORES on November 25th in Argentina’s capital Buenos Aires.
Since there are hardly any opponents in Europe – neither in K-1 nor in boxing – a long journey of around 22 hours has to be accepted.
If anyone has an opponent, Petre look forward to receiving a seriousoffer! 🙂
Flores is one of only 3 girls who won against our Alexandra. Back in Cairo 2021 (!) in light contact.
But Alexandra won against Sabrina in K-1. So the direct duel is 1:1
Many nations from North, Central and South America are expected there.
A TOP chance for further fights in Latin America and perhaps in the USA. A promoter in Florida has already shown interest, and negotiations are continuing in Buenos Aires.
As always, the weight class is Ladies Heavyweight +66 kg, it follows K-1 rules, and the fight is scheduled for 5 rounds.
All Croatian men and women who would like to represent their country at the upcoming WKF European Championshipsin Trieste from October 25th to 29th can now contact Mr. Peric directly!
