KSW middleweight champion Mamed Khalidov discussed fellow Polish star Mariusz Pudzianowski's development in the sport, as well as his overall impact in Poland.
While some MMA fans are happy to limit themselves to the roster of fighters signed to the UFC, various other promotions proved to also be capable of creating stars that people can get behind. Poland's KSW is one of the leading organizations to do so.
Over the years, KSW rose from a struggling promotion with a minute fan base to a well respected sporting event with a national TV broadcast deal. Apart from savvy business decisions, the reason behind their thriving market is the likes of superstars Mariusz Pudzianowski and Mamed Khalidov.
