Grabowski Upkick, Fall From Ring Doom Kita at BOTE
By: Tomasz Marciniak
Officially, Damian Grabowski remains unbeaten, but his latest win again Michal Kita was not as clear cut at Beast of the East “Grabowski vs. Kita” on Saturday at the Gdynia Sports Hall in Gdynia, Poland.

Kita was the better striker and repeatedly tagged Grabowski with his right hand. To his creadit, Grabowski never flinched, but he did not get his opponent to the mat until he decided to pull guard at the mid-point of round one. This move was also largely ineffective, but Grabowski managed to hit Kita in the face with an upkick. With the fighters vertical again, Kita lunged forward with a combination but slipped and fell out of the ring.
When Kita rose, he revealed a cut under his right eyebrow that was severe enough for the doctor to call the fight 3:25 into round one. The wound was the result of Grabowski’s upkick, but it appeared to have been aggravated once Kita fell out of the ring. Kita’s team was considering appealing to the promoters to have the fight result changed to a no contest.
