Simply the Best since 1994 !
The World Kickboxing Network (WKN), established in 1994, has grown into one of the most influential and respected kickboxing organizations worldwide. It has a well-earned reputation for maintaining high standards of safety and fairness in all its sanctioned events, making it a key player in the development of kickboxing on the global stage. One of the organization’s most significant achievements is its collaboration with legendary boxing promoter Don King, making the WKN the only kickboxing federation to have co-organized events with such a towering figure in combat sports.
Additionally, the WKN is recognized for its progressive approach to blending professional and amateur kickboxing through its creation of the PRO/AM division. This innovative division allows athletes to transition smoothly from amateur to professional competition, giving them the experience and exposure they need to succeed at the highest levels of the sport.
What sets the WKN apart from other organizations is its dedication to following a regulatory framework inspired by professional boxing. This structure ensures a level of professionalism and consistency in all WKN events, providing athletes and fans alike with a familiar and well-regulated sporting environment.
Beyond its commitment to the sport’s elite, the WKN also strives to develop kickboxing in regions that lack significant visibility or resources. Through its World Tour program, the WKN actively supports countries with emerging talent by organizing and promoting events in these areas. This initiative provides fighters from less-prominent nations the opportunity to compete on the international stage and gain recognition within the global kickboxing community.
Over the years, the WKN has become synonymous with excellence in the sport, with many legendary fighters having won and defended world titles under its banner. This legacy of champions has solidified the WKN’s place as one of the most prominent and respected organizations in kickboxing today.
