KSW 45 ‘MMA’s Not Dead’ quick results & highlights

KSW invades London today with their highly anticipated “Return to Wembley” card featuring two title bouts.

In the main event, Phil De Fries will make the first defense of his Heavyweight Championship against former champ and KSW mainstay Karl Bedorf.

The co-main event will see Welterweight champ Dricus Du Plessis defend his strap against Roberto Soldic in a rematch of their fight earlier this year in Poland. In that contest, Du Plessis was able to finish off Soldic with a second round KO after weathering an early storm from his opponent. While the finish may have been decisive, KSW officials decided that it was so nice that we just have to see it twice.

The full card is available for your viewing pleasure on KSWTV.com and DAZN.

Here are your full results from today’s event.
