It’s never a good sign when a fighter’s walkout last multiple times longer than his fight, especially when it’s in a losing effort.
Artur Szpilka let his creative juices flow Saturday at KSW 94 at Ego Arena in Gdansk, Poland, when he revealed a very unique entrance to the cage for his heavyweight co-main event with Arkadiusz Wrzosek.
Szpilka emerged in front of camera chamber with medical cords strapped to him. He then emerged and made his walk down the entrance in a scene that’s never happened before in MMA history (via X):

Unfortunately for Szpilka (3-1), the captivating entrance was the high point of his night. He charged at Wrzosek (5-0) in the opening moments and got clipped with a shot that sent him to the mat. Wrzosek landed a few shots to the side of the head, and the fight was over in a mere 14 seconds (via X):

The result showed once again that in MMA, it’s always important to show off personality for the fans, but ultimately what matters most is the results.
