The pseudo-spectacular’s organizers did not inform the city of such bad ideas. We will certainly not allow organising this,” says the Mayor of Opole, Arkadiusz Wiśniewski. It is a gala of the newly founded Federation of Freakfights, presented by the actor Antoni Królikowski as an ambassador of the event. During the event, the lookalike presidents of Ukraine and Russia stand in before the fight.
“In Poland has already been formed several federations of combat MMA celebrities, but as you can see, the market is not full, because there has just appeared the new federation. The well-known actor Antek Królikowski became the host of the event. Already at the beginning, the celebrity decided to outdo Marcin Najman, who declared gangster Andrzej Zieliński aka Słowik (The Nightingale) as the “boss” of his gala, for which he was generally condemned,” Niezależna.pl wrote.
Because of the bloody war in Ukraine, Królikowski came up with the idea of organising a fight between the fake Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin. The idea was not popular with the public, although it was stated that the proceeds should benefit Ukraine.

What is known for sure is that the gala will not take place in its original location – Opole. This was announced by the city mayor himself.
“I don’t agree with an MMA spectacular where it’s about a fight between fake Putin and so on. Opole helps refugees and fighting Ukrainians, as Poland does. And we will continue to do so. The pseudo-spectacular’s organizers did not inform the city of such bad ideas. We won’t let that happen,” Arkadiusz Wiśniewski posted on Twitter.
Nie ma mojej zgody❗️ na galę MMA, której el. miałaby być walka pomiędzy pseudoputinem itd.
Opole pomaga Uchodźcom i walczącym Ukr. podobnie jak Polska. I będziemy to robić dalej
Org. pseudogali nie uprzedzali miasta o tak paskudnych pomysłach. Na pewno na to nie pozwolimy ✋️ pic.twitter.com/dCmSJNDYnP— Arkadiusz Wiśniewski (@OPOLEPrezydent) April 3, 2022
