The tournament will get together the best world kickboxers in the weight class under 71 kg: Artur Kyshenko, Dzhabar Askerov, Enriko Gogokhia (representing Moscow Combat Sports Club No1), Muhammad Kamal, Yuri Bessmertny, and Andy Souwer. The fight card is being finalized right now.
Two super fights are also planned: two best Russian kickboxers, Artem Levin and Artem Vakhitov, will fight in the light-heavy and heavy weight classes. Their opponents will be announced shortly.
“Milan has been chosen for several reasons”, says Ruslan Suleymanov, President of the LEGEND Fighting Show. “The Italian party have addressed us with an interesting proposal: to organize a joint tournament. Our partner is OKTAGON, an Italian company that has been operating in the market for over 15 years, conducting K-1, muay-thai, and MMA tournaments.
“From its inception the LEGEND has been targeted both at the Russian and European audiences. Moreover, it is the Old World where the TV audience rating was many times higher. We are directing our efforts to those locations where the tournament generates interest and meets with a ready market, without forgetting our own, Russian, fans.
”Our original aim was going abroad after the two Moscow tournaments. Milan is the second-most populous city in Italy, one of the European cultural and sports centers where kickboxing and muay-thai are quite popular. And, after all, we are responding to the wishes of the European audience. After its two editions the LEGEND has become recognizable in the world, with special interest developing in Europe, and we have immediately received invitations to different countries”.
“Milan is also the fashion capital of Europe”, adds Timur Soloviev, the Show producer. “It is a gorgeous, beautiful, and vibrant city. Before taking our choice we made an in-depth study of the fighting market in the European countries”.
The Show programme is even more ambitious than ever. “The third LEGEND will also be loaded with surprises; however, if the latest one focused on special effects, for the next edition it will be the concept. We are challenging stereotypes – and this is going to be a provocation. Rise to it!” said Timur.
Among their guests of honor the organizers are expecting Giorgio Armani, the famous kickboxer Giorgio Petrosyan, and other celebrities.
The Show will be broadcast in all the European countries, and the Russian martial art fans will be able to follow it on one of the Russian TV channels.

If LFS continues on their current path, I have no doubt they will become the biggest combat sports org in the world in 10 years.

Alexander Surzko Vs Paul Daley
This is not the first time that the British fighter will fight K-1 rules . The former Championships Cage Warriors, Strikeforce, Bellator, EliteXC, Cage Rage, BAMMA, Shark Fights and, of course UFC fighter, Daley admitted that his favorite martial art form is Muay Thai . This is confirmed by his fights by the rules of mixed martial arts, all of which he showed great striking technique.
His opponent is a multiple winner of the amateur and professional tournaments in Thai boxing and kickboxing in k-1, a master of sports in Thai boxing, Alexander Surzhko. Debuted on the professional ring in 2009, Alexander has already managed to win the love of the public. Had 18 fights with 14 wins. In his last fight against t Artur Hakobyan In W5 he confidently won on points. 20 October 2012 year Russian Grand Prix Alexander opened one of his most brilliant victories, scored sending his opponent in a knockout Yusupova Jamal.

Oh lame, I thought it was going to be a one night, eight man tournament What they do promise to deliver is still an extremely solid offering.
Daley might have a new career in kickboxing. He knocked out a top five kickboxing welterweight in what I believe was his debut? I don't know how much he has exactly dabbled in kickboxing, but regardless, that is still an impressive victory.
Excited for Mo Khamal's fight too. You could say Khamal is in consideration for best non-thai Muay Thai practitioner. Sitthichai is coming in with a lot of momentum too and I think we're going to see a great fight.

Just look at how many Russian based MMA promotions there are right now. That area of the world might be the current hotspot for talent, but there's only so much talent you're able to acquire. Looks like Legend has gone down the road of quality, instead of quantity.
