The SUPERKOMBAT Fighting Championship, frequently shortened to simply SUPERKOMBAT or SK, is one of Europe's major kickboxing promotions, that produces events in Romania and across the world. Eduard Irimia serves as the president of the SUPERKOMBAT.
In 2011, Superkombat cemented its status as one of the best kickboxing promotions in the world by taking the Best Promotion Of The Year Award (under K-1 rules) at the World Independent Promoters Union Awards. Dutch promotions Ultimate Glory and It's Showtime, and Italian promotion Fight Code were the other finalists who presented at the Award.
On the back of a successful year, Superkombat has been nominated in the “Promotion of the Year” category of the Combat Press 2016 Kickboxing Awards.
In July 2017, the company moved its headquarters to London, United Kingdom from Bucharest, Romania. One month earlier, regional headquarters in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA were opened. The company will still have its already established marketing headquarters in Bucharest, Romania and New York City, New York, USA.
After having 8 years of experience in Local Kombat, Irimia decided to expand internationally launching the product under new name in 2011. SUPERKOMBAT is well-known mainly for heavyweight fights and includes an elimination tournament in the heavyweight division and bouts at different weight classes.
The first SK event took place in 2011 in Râmnicu Vâlcea, Romania. The purpose of the event was to determine the most effective stand-up martial art between opponents from all over the world from different disciplines, including boxing, kickboxing, MMA, judo, karate, Muay Thai, wrestling, and others.
