The idea for the name of the fight show came to me
after at stay in America where everybody who was anybody,
and had a little Scandinavian blood in their vanes,
called their business “Viking”...something.
So I thought to myself, what is more appropriate than
calling a fight show where the best fighters from
the entire world can compete against the Scandinavian
Vikings? Vikingfight!!!
The concept of Vikingfight is simple: I want to improve
Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and Thaiboxing in Denmark
and I want to make sure that all fighters from all
over the world can challenge the Danish Vikings. My
goal is to build up eight Vikingtitles in four weight
classes in MMA and four in Thaiboxing, with high prestige
to the winner of the belt. I chose to begin the awarding
of belts with a four-man tournament to find the winner
who is most worthy. The winner of the first belt has
proven himself worthy in the tournament, so he shall
now only defend his title on the upcoming events.
The first Vikingfight was held in February 2002 after
a hectic month of planning, but more is to come…
