<\/p>\n
Poland also has the capacity to fill their extra places as the host of the tournament, and central placed in Europe its easy to reach the tournament.<\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n It is only some small hours before this years senior European Championship will take place in Poland.

<\/a>The Polish organization have proven several times that they can organize major tournaments in a professional way. The tournament will also be streamed live – like it did the first day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe middleweight category with almost thirty fighters are maybe one\u00a0the smoothest categories among the male categories. Ten years ago, \u2190Marius Ilas, Romania<\/a>, won the EC for his first time, and since 2005 he has been able to reach the podium six time. What will this\u00a0technical athlete bring to the mat this time?<\/span><\/p>\nSweden with \u2190\u00a0Jimmie Collins<\/a>, Vytautas Cepla<\/a>\/Lithuania, Yasir Mammadov\/Azarbaijan, – all has reach the podium in this category, and have the skills to reach the podium once again. The polish team, Igor Lamot, Marek Odzeniak<\/a> and Gerard Will are all well rounded fighters with their own style.\u00a0Odzeniak the veteran and Lamont up and coming with a good U22 record. Gerard Willl, fighting for the first time in Shinkyokushinn EC. European Champion IKO1 in 2013, and have\u00a0swept\u00a0the KWF clean in EC and World Tournament winning almost all his fight with knock out. Lost to Marius Ilas in Mazowia max 80 in 2014.<\/b><\/b><\/address>\nBut one fact is that Poland has never taken a medal in the middleweight category..! We think that this is the year that it will change.<\/address>\nLight heavy weight has been in the total dominance of Bulgarian star Valeri Dimitrov. Behind him there has been a wolf pack of fighters from Lithuania, Poland and Hungary. This year Dimitrov has moved up to the category above, +90kg, as he did in 2009. So the question then becomes who will step up in Dimitrov absence. We have spoken about Lithuania, Poland and Hungary, but Dimitrov is not the only strong fighter from Bulgaria. \u2190Vasil Vangelov<\/a> the runner up in 2013 and 2014, will certainly defend the Bulgarian \u00a0winning streak in this category.<\/address>\n.<\/span><\/address>\nHeavy weight with \u2190Lukas Kubilius<\/a>\/Lithuania, Brian Jakobsen<\/a>\/Denmark, Dorin Margarint<\/a>\/Romania and now Valeri Dimitrov<\/a>\/Bulgaria, will be a powerful class, and it is not only Dimitrov that has moved up from the -90, also\u00a0Maciej Mazur<\/a>\/Poland, Richard Lizak\/Hungary are in the same “boat” This category will offer many\u00a0very interesting fights.<\/span><\/address>\n.<\/span><\/address>\n.<\/span><\/address>\n<\/a>In the lightest class, who is at the same size as the middleweight class – do we have a very good spread among the fighters. One of the strongest names,\u00a0\u2190G\u00e0bor R\u00f2zsa<\/a> \/ Hungary, looking to take his 6th EC title.\u00a0Andrei Zinchenko<\/a>, Georgia last year winner, and also at the podium in 2012\/13. The polish team are also looking strong, and in this class we have several new young fighters ho are very interesting..<\/span><\/address>\n\u00a0<\/address>\n<\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a>
