2022 Arnold Classic Slap Fighting Championship Recap

The rules of the event were rather straightforward. Athletes could win in one of four ways:

  • Knockout
  • TKO or withdrawal (if an athlete can't continue in 30 seconds after being slapped)
  • Point advantage
  • By disqualification

Judges scored the fights according to overall technique, the damage inflicted on the opponent, and accuracy. If there's a tie after the scheduled 3-5 rounds, then there is an overtime round where each athlete gets one more chance to prove to the judges why they should win.

Adrianna “Flychanelle” Sledz vs Julia Kruzer

Tale of the Tape:

  • Adrianna Sledz: 5’ 9 | 132.2 lbs
  • Julia Kruzer: 5’9 | 127.8 lbs

These two women are relatively unknown in the US, but they are both reality TV stars back in their home country of Poland. Sledz was coming into the fight undefeated, and this was Kruzer's first fight. Sledz definitely had the upper hand in this matchup, which showed in the fight. Sledz was able to decisively win all 3 rounds.

Nikolas “Predator” Toth vs Maksymilian “Mad Max” Lesniak

Tale of the tape:

  • Nikolas Toth: 6’1 | 220.5 lbs
  • Maksymilian Lesniak: 6’ 4 | 240.3 lbs

Lesniak was the favorite in this fight as he came in with more experience, but Toth was expected to put up a good fight as this was his second competition. In round 1, Toth started off with a crack, but Lesniak managed to take it. With the return slap from Lesniak, he knocked Toth out.

Pater Truchlik vs. Karol Wyłupek

Tale of the tape:

  • Karol Wyłupek: 5’ 9 | 213.8 lbs
  • Pater Truchlik: 5’ 8 | 209.4 lbs

Both men came into the fight with some experience in the sport, with Wylupek 3 total fights with 2 wins vs. Truchlik's 4 total fights with 3 wins. This was a neck-to-neck battle as the men remained tied after 3 rounds. Truchlik pulled off the win in overtime with one monstrous slap.

Michał “Kucik” Kuciński vs Mateusz “Kazek” Kaźmierczak

Tale of the tape:

  • Mateusz Kaźmierczak: 6’ 3 | 227 lbs
  • Michał Kuciński: 6’3 | 209.5 lbs

Kazek came into the fight with 2 previous competitions under his belt, so he was the clear favorite. The fight ended with Kazek dominating Kucik all three rounds, where he won by judges' decision.

Dawid “Zales” Zalewski vs Koa “Da Crazy Hawaiian” Viernes

Tale of the tape:

  • Dawid Zalewski: 6’3 | 308.6 lbs
  • Koa Viernes: 6’3 | 378 lbs

Both men came into the fight with undefeated records, so we knew this would be a great matchup. This was the event's main card, and Viernes was the only American to compete. The second round of the fight saw Zalewski almost go down, but he managed to keep his composure. Finally, he knocked out Viernes with a devastating slap in the last round.

2022 Slap Fighting Championship recap
CLOSING THOUGHTS

This was a great spectacle that added some flair to the 2022 Arnold Sports Festival. We hope it will be back next year as it drew some crowds of spectators both live and online. Who knows, maybe the man himself, Vasilii "Dumpling" Kamotskii, will make an appearance next year as he is probably the most notable athlete in the sport.
