03 April 2022

Polish MMA promotion has announced a bizarre MMA showdown between two men who look like Russian president Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.

The fight is expected to happen on April 30, 2022, at the Stegu Arena in the Polish city of Opole and will be streamed live on YouTube and Facebook. The promotion, which is apparently named Royal Division, had a face-off last day between the two fighters as well.
