Adam Lewandowski wins in his debut at Hegemon 2 gala During the Hegemon 2 gala in Sanok, Adam Lewandowski made his debut in the octagon, marking his first fight in the semi-pro MMA format. The exciting Hegemon 2 event in Sanok showcased Adam Lewandowski for the first time in this format. The gala drew the attention of mixed martial arts fans not only from the region but from all over Poland, offering spectacular fights and a high level of competition. Adam entered the cage full of determination, and his debut promised to be impressive from the very beginning. Lewandowski demonstrated calmness, discipline, and excellent tactical preparation. From the very first seconds, he consistently executed his game plan, controlled the pace of the fight, and effectively neutralized his opponent’s actions. In the second round, Adam ended the fight early, finishing with a spectacular rear-naked choke. Adam’s corner provided crucial support—trainers Sebastian Kotwica, Sergey Savenko, and Krzysztof Flak from Unity Jiu-Jitsu Kraków were present both technically and mentally, helping him prepare for the debut and supporting him throughout the fight. Their experience and guidance proved invaluable, and Adam himself emphasized that the team’s support was key to his success. For Lewandowski, this was not only an important step in his MMA career but also a natural transition from the world of BJJ mats to the more complex competition of the octagon. Hegemon 2 provided an excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience, test his skills under pressure, and build confidence in a professional sports environment.

Bronze for Adam Lewandowski at the ADCC Summer Open On Saturday, June 21, Adam Lewandowski made an impressive debut in the advanced 70 kg division at the prestigious ADCC Summer Open, earning a bronze medal in a highly competitive field. Although Adam had previously competed in adult divisions, this event marked his official entry into the advanced category, and in a much heavier weight class than he normally competes in. Stepping up to this level meant facing not only stronger but also far more experienced opponents—an enormous challenge for someone who, just a few months ago, was still competing as a junior. Adam rose to the occasion with confidence and technical precision. In the bronze medal match, he submitted his opponent with a slick kneebar in just 30 seconds, securing his place on the podium in dominant fashion. It’s important to note that ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club) events are among the most respected grappling competitions in the world. Competing at this level is a milestone in itself—earning a medal is a true mark of excellence. The level of competition is unforgiving, and every match tests both physical skill and mental fortitude. This performance not only reflects Adam’s current abilities, but also sends a strong message about his future potential. It’s a promising beginning to a new chapter in his career—and one that suggests much more is yet to come.

Another Successful Tournament for Our Fighters – 3 Gold Medals at the SOLT BJJ Event Another Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament is behind us — this time as part of the prestigious SOLT (Submission Only League Tournament), which gathers top-level competitors from across Poland.

Our athletes once again proved that dedication, consistency, and quality coaching deliver real results. Out of four competitors representing our team, three came home with gold medals – a remarkable achievement and testament to their hard work. Congratulations to: Franek Kłopotowski also competed, giving it his all and gaining valuable experience that will surely pay off in future competitions. All of these athletes are regulars on the mat — training day in and day out. Their progress is the result of discipline, commitment, and top-level instruction from coach Filip Dyrkacz. We’re proud to be part of a team that combines passion with professionalism, creating an environment where fighters can grow and reach their full potential. Huge congratulations once again to both the competitors and the coaching staff – outstanding work!
