FIGHT ANNOUNCED KSW 123: Kazieczko to face debutant Danylko in Szczecin on Nov. 21

Maciej Kazieczko gets a debutant with momentum in Szczecin. Bohdan Danylko arrives at XTB KSW 123 unbeaten in four and will step into the KSW cage for the first time against a veteran of the promotion.

Kazieczko (9-5, 6 KO) has fought for KSW since 2016 and is a former lightweight title challenger. He has had thirteen fights in the cage and last fought in November last year, when he lost to Adam Masaev. The Ankos MMA fighter is known for entertaining fights: two knockout-of-the-night bonuses, two fight-of-the-night bonuses, and three first-round wins. His finish of Michael Dubois is regarded as one of the most spectacular in the organization's history.

Danylko (8-1, 5 KO, 1 Sub) is 26 and from Ukraine. He turned professional in 2023 and has fought on shows such as Strife, FEN and Babilon MMA. Six of his eight wins came before the final bell, and five of those were knockouts, all in the first round. His latest win came in September, when he submitted Patryk Likus, a fighter known from KSW.

The matchup sets experience in the KSW cage against a finisher who has not yet fought there. Kazieczko has the bigger-stage history and a loss to shake off. Danylko has the streak and a record of early finishes.

Watch how Danylko handles his first KSW fight, and whether Kazieczko can return to the knockout form that earned him his bonuses.

Does a debutant riding four straight wins like Danylko have the edge against an established KSW name like Kazieczko, or does KSW experience matter more?
