Mamed Khalidov vacates title, middleweight tournament to crown new champ begins at KSW 45

Joining the previously announced heavyweight title fight, KSW has confirmed multiple new big match-ups for the upcoming KSW 45 show.

Dricus Du Plessis vs. Roberto Soldic II

In a welterweight title rematch, South African finishing-machine Dricus “Stillknocks” Du Plessis will look to shock the world by finishing former champion Roberto “Robocop” Soldic yet again.

24-year-old Du Plessis (12-1) is a winner of eight-straight. He signed with KSW as an EFC two-weight champion late last year, making his debut in a welterweight title fight against 23-year-old striking sensation Roberto Soldic.
