Local Windsor boy has made it to the big time. Jan Kaszuba (Mady's Karate, MFC Windsor) left for Tokyo Japan to pursue his dream to become a K1 Fighter three years ago. He has now landed on the biggest stage so far in his fight career. He is fighting next month at the K-1 Max 70KG Finals in a opening fight against a very tough Kyokushin / MMA fighter named Fabiano Da Silva. Jan's coach in Japan is non other the K1 Japan Champion Nicholas Pettas. Keep your eye out for this event November 8th. Not many Canadian fighters can say they have fought in the K1 but Jan Kaszuba is now one of them.

Congrats to Jan for all the hard work and perseverance to keep the dream alive. Now go get em.
