Fiery PIT BULL Supported WWFC 21 CHARITY – Great Charity MMA Tournament Held in Favor of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

PIT BULL became an energy partner of WWFC 21 CHARITY, a charity MMA tournament in support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The event, held on October 20 at the Bel Etage Concert Hall in Kyiv, was organized by the World Warriors Fighting Championship (WWFC), the leader of mixed martial arts in Ukraine, which has more than 50 professional tournaments to its credit.

PIT BULL has been sponsoring MMA competitions for several years. This is a spectacular sport that appeals to brave and uncompromising young people. And PIT BULL admirers are just like that.

So, how did WWFC 21 CHARITY go? It was intense and vibrant!  The spectators of the competition witnessed 12 of the best fighters from Ukraine and Georgia competing for the title of the strongest. The fiery PIT BULL Power energized everyone present.

Each match of the tournament was absolutely incredible and showcased the beauty of MMA. But the highlight of the evening was the fight between Ukrainian athletes, the European Champion, soldier from Kharkiv Kyrylo Kolomiets, member of KRAKEN Special Operations Unit, and the Champion of Ukraine in Jiu-Jitsu and Wushu Sanshou Vitaliy Figol. Kyrylo has been taking part in military operations, so he was able to get ready for competitions during his days-off only. However, he defeated Vitaliy by a technical knockout due to his agility and strength.

WWFC 21 CHARITY was dedicated to the memory of Yegor Birkun, a representative of the national MMA team and a fighter in the Azov Regiment, who heroically lost his life on March 22, 2022, defending Mariupol.  The winner of the Grand Prix “Yegor Birkun Cup” was Shamil Mustafayev who defeated Oleksiy Gurniev. He received the Cup from Yegor Birkun’s mother.
