Andryszak faces Henrique at KSW 49
Heavyweight destroyer Michal Andryszak (20-7) returns after a year layoff to face UFC veteran Luis ’KLB’ Henrique (11-5) at KSW 49 on May 18 from the Ergo Arena in Gdansk, Poland and you can watch on www.KSWTV.com.
Former title challenger Michal Andryszak was last in action a little over a year ago when he came up short against Phil De Fries at KSW 43. Prior to that the 27-year-old was on a six-fight-win-streak of first round knockouts. In total Andryszak possesses an incredible nineteen first round stoppage wins and has never been to a decision. He owns career victories over former KSW heavyweight champ Fernando Rodrigues Jr., Tim Hague, Michal Kita, and Denis Smoldarev.
No doubt Andryszak will be vying to get back towards title contention but first he must get past the debuting Luis Henrique. The 25-year-old went 7-1 on the Brazilian scene before getting signed by the UFC in 2015. He fought six times for the promotion submitting both Dimitrii Smolyakov at UFC on FOX 20 and Christian Columbo at UFC Fight Night 100 and was also in the cage with Francis N’Gannou. After leaving the UFC last September he scored another submission victory locally in Brazil and now will make his KSW debut on May 18.
KSW 49 will be headlined by Michal Materla (27-6) vs. Scott Askham (17-4) in a much anticipated rematch for the vacant middleweight title and Roberto Soldic (15-3) will defend his welterweight title in the co-main event against the undefeated Krystian Kaszubowski (7-0). Also Damian Grabowski (21-5) will finally make his KSW debut and he will face former heavyweight champ Karol Bedorf (15-4) and social media stars Erko Jun (2-0) & Akop Szostak (3-2) will collide.
The event will stream live around the world on www.KSWTV.com.
