Croatian Vito Kosar, who will make his debut in the SENSHI ring at SENSHI 29 this Saturday, is the newly crowned WAKO World Kickboxing Champion. Last week, from November 23 to 29, he competed in Abu Dhabi, where he dominated his opponents in the -86 kg category and claimed the championship title at the WAKO Senior World Championships. In addition to his new 2025 world title, he is also the 2024 IFMA World Champion, the 2024 WAKO European Vice Champion, and the 2023 IFMA European Champion.
The 24-year-old Vito Kosar will step onto the SENSHI arena for the first time in the final edition of the combat gala for 2025 — SENSHI 29, which will take place on December 6 at 07:00 PM EET /12:00 PM EST/ at the Palace of Culture and Sports in Varna, Bulgaria. His opponent in the -85 kg category under the KWU FULL CONTACT rules will be Italian fighter Fabian Lorito. At 25, Lorito is the current WAKO Pro K-1 European Champion and the 2024 WAKO Pro Low Kick World Champion, as well as the 2024 WKU European Champion. So far, Lorito has fought only once for the organization, suffering a loss at SENSHI 27.
Professional kickboxer and Muay Thai fighter Ali Yuzeir also took part in the World Championships in Abu Dhabi this November, and was eliminated just a step away from the finals in the same weight class. However, he secured a victory over Austrian fighter Karim Mabrouk, whom he will face officially in the ring at SENSHI 29. This recent win fuels the determination of both athletes ahead of their clash.
Lithuanian fighter Mantas Rimdeika, whom we will also see at the international gala in Varna, Bulgaria, competed at the World Championships in Abu Dhabi as well. He is a WAKO World Cup Champion, Lithuanian national Muay Thai and kickboxing champion, as well as an IFMA European bronze medalist.
Combat sports fans will witness 12 intense bouts featuring professional fighters from 16 countries at SENSHI 29, where athletes will give their absolute best in the ring, ready to showcase the highest level of their abilities.
