Ibrahim Chuzhigaev (19-6) will meet Maciej Rozanski (15-6) in a rematch at KSW 120 on July 18 in Gdynia. Their first bout was ruled a no-contest after an accidental eye poke.
Ibrahim Chuzhigaev and Maciej Rozanski are set to settle their unfinished business, with a rematch confirmed for KSW 120 on July 18 in Gdynia, Poland.
The two fighters previously met under the KSW banner, but their bout was ruled a no-contest after an accidental eye poke brought the contest to an early halt. That inconclusive result left both men without a definitive answer, and the rematch will give them the opportunity to finally determine a winner.
Chuzhigaev enters the contest carrying a professional record of 19-6, a mark that reflects a seasoned career across the European MMA circuit. He has established himself as a consistent presence within KSW's roster and will be looking to turn a frustrating no-contest into a clear statement victory.
Rozanski brings a record of 15-6 into the rematch, demonstrating comparable experience at the highest level of European competition. Like his opponent, he will be motivated by the knowledge that their first meeting produced no real resolution, and a win in Gdynia would represent a significant step forward for his career.
Why it matters
- The no-contest outcome left both fighters without meaningful ranking movement, making this rematch a high-stakes opportunity for both men.
- Gdynia provides a significant stage, with KSW events drawing strong regional audiences and offering visibility across European MMA.
- A decisive finish either way carries extra weight given the unresolved history between the two.
