—The Ural Fighting Championship (Ural FC) International League started with a resounding debut. At the first tournament, 50 fighters from 12 countries met. The fights were conducted according to the K-1 and MMA kickboxing rules. Eleven athletes from Prikamye entered the arena of the Molot Sports Palace, for many of whom this was their first experience of professional fighting. A real show awaited the audience: driving music, videos about fighters set against the backdrop of Perm locations, and the ring announcer Alexander Zagorsky himself was riding a motorcycle to the octagon. The first Ural FC tournament set a high standard for professional fights.
