KSW 113 lands in Łódź with two title fights and a few chaos buttons
KSW closes out its 2025 calendar on December 20 with KSW 113 at Atlas Arena in Łódź, and the matchmaking feels deliberate: two championship bouts, a heavyweight name with real mainstream pull, and a card stacked with “someone is getting hurt” energy.
Main event: the champ returns to protect the welterweight throne
The headliner is simple to sell and hard to predict once it gets messy: champion Bartosiński vs. Tulshaev. The champion is built like a complete fighter—pressure, control, and the kind of pace that makes rounds feel longer than five minutes. The challenger is the dangerous variable: awkward timing, real power, and the confidence of a guy who believes one clean moment is enough.

Co-main title fight + the heavyweight spotlight
The second championship clash is Zerhouni vs. Pawlak, a classic “survive the storm vs. impose your game” type of matchup. And if you want pure spectacle, you’ve got Martínek vs. Szpilka—a fight that could look technical for thirty seconds and then turn into a car crash.
