KO Arena Strikes Back !

March 11, 2006

Polideportivo Municipal de Alhaurin el Grande

Malaga, Spain

KO Arena is the premier MMA Spanish event and is now celebrating its 4th edition. The event will take place

in Malaga (Spain) the 11th of March and it has nine professional MMA fights and one professional kickboxing

fight. Our event always tries to get some international fighters - and this time we have fighters from Brazil,

Norway, Poland, Romania as well as Spanish fighters with international experience in MMA fights.

Also, for the first time, KO Arena will do a championship belt - it will be the KOA Lightweight Belt (under

70kg). Four fighters will fight hard for that belt, but only one will take it!

This event is supported by Sherdog, who is the official provider of the MMA gloves of KO Arena and is

sanctioned by the international WKL federation.
