Shinkyokushin Open Weight EC was held Saturday 3rd December, Poland. Organized in/by Kokoro Cup format – tournament. As one could expect, some fall outs during the last time in towards the tournament was a fact. After a World Championship in September – one could not be surprised. Luckily the mass of fighters and the level are very satisfying!

Open weight champion 2022. In 2013 Wolny entered the EC podium for the first time – 3rd place European Championship in the light heavyweight, and 5th place in The 45th All Japan Open Tournament. Hard-working for many years, several podium places in different organisations, and been representing Poland for many years in the major tournaments. For many being seen as the proof of never giving up spirit in many extremely long and demanding fights. In Poland, known for hard fights in the Polish Championships with top fighters of the world as Maciej Mazur, Patryk Sypień with more.

15 years ago we received the very sad message of the death of Tokujun Ishi.
“Despite prayers made by President Midori and all Branch Chiefs, as well as students and many, many other people, Shihan Ishi passed away today, on November 12th at 11:17am. He was 44 years old.”
The date are in the calendar for the Shinkyokushin Swiss Open next year, and as we are used to, the Tournament can offer two days with action! Day one with the children and juniors, second day adults. Note: this edition also offers U-21 categories.
I det opprinnelige EM innlegg la jeg, Steffen Haukedalen, for mye og urettferdig vekt på klasse inndeling, antall og avvikling av dette. Dette satte utøvere i NKKO dårlig lys, og de ble fremstilt feilaktig. Alle utøver skal ha full respekt for deltagelse alltid overalt. Dette var feil og jeg beklager.
Dette gikk spesielt utover to av de beste utøvere vi har hatt på herresiden på kryss av alle organisasjoner den siste tiden: Björn Eirik Orstad og Eivind Nærland.
NKO har ingen ansvar for dette, kun jeg, Steffen haukedalen.
Innlegget er selvsagt redigert, og med en merknad på dette. intensjonen var å belyse en organisatorisk trend vi ser i verden, noe jeg burde latt være.
Da er man i gang rundt om med de forskjellige EM, trekninger er gjort og det er klart til de respektive organisasjoners EM. MERK:innlegg endret pga dårlig journalistikk
