Artur Szpilka announces return to KSW cage for December event

Artur Szpilka has announced his return to the KSW cage, signaling a potential appearance at the KSW 124 event scheduled for December 19 at the PreZero Arena in Gliwice. The former boxer, who recently extended his winning streak to three matches following a unanimous decision victory over Augusto Sakaia at KSW 120, indicated his availability via social media.

Szpilka’s transition from professional boxing to mixed martial arts has been marked by significant personal challenges. Beyond his athletic career, which included a high-profile heavyweight title fight against Deontay Wilder in 2016, Szpilka has been open about his past struggles with addiction, including gambling and cocaine use, as well as his history with incarceration and life in orphanages.
