Knockout of 2020

It was an unforgettable year, wasn’t it?

Apart from the world events, we will remember 2020 with an exceptional knockout of a young fighter – Yuri Rusin from Ukraine. 

Yuri is a World Youth champion in the open category of the KWU World Youth Cup 2020, winning four fights. The tournament was held annually on the third day of our International camp. He also was awarded for the best technique fighter in the male division in the same tournament. KWU World Youth Cup (18-21 y.o.) was held in openweight category for males and females. Each winner received a medal, a cup, a diploma, and a financial award.

Now about the nomination: The results of the 7th nomination “Knockout of the Year 2020” is held by Kyokushin Portal. We remind you that only Ukrainian athletes (over 18 years old) participating in tournaments of any level, both in Ukraine and abroad, participate in the nomination. The winner of the “Knockout of the Year 2020” nomination was an athlete from Mukachevo – Yuri Rusin (coach Yuri Rusin Sr., Kyokushin-Kan). Last year, Yuri is also the champion of Ukraine, winner of various national tournaments, European champion, winner, and prize-winner of international tournaments
