Now the martial arts segment on KZitem is littered with a variety of freak fights and freak formats of all stripes. And among all this clowning, it was somehow forgotten that just over four years ago a really new, cool, furious and very spectacular format of martial arts was born in Russia. Unfortunately, the matter was limited to one single tournament, although the potential of these competitions, in my opinion, was simply cosmic.
On December 1, 2018, the Thermopyle Team Combat team fight tournament was held in St. Petersburg, popularly christened Sparta after the name of the feature film of the same name. The creators of the new sport were the legendary fighter and promoter Nikolai Kudryashov, who back in the 90s was at the forefront of the creation of M-1 and mixed martial arts in our country, and businessman Daniel Litvinsky.
Eight teams from different cities that evening fought in the Grand Prix tournament for relegation according to special rules. In a ring called Thermopylae there are four people on each side at once. Only two could fight at the same time, and as soon as one of the opponents dropped out, he was replaced by the next fighter, and so on until one of the teams was completely knocked out. An unusual ring with a format of 10 meters by 2, the rules of the duel, aimed at the most dynamic strike, because not only wrestling was banned, but even the Thai clinch, as well as the lineups of teams in which there were quite a few titled fighters from boxing, muay thai and kickboxing . All this created a truly explosive mixture.
Today we will watch the first quarterfinal match between AS Team and Kuznya. And you, dear friends, please write in the comments how you like this format of fights and would you like tournaments of this format to be revived and again please us with spectacular fights.
