Gala Profesional Gran Slam "The Challenge" Superfight Fran "Sidi" Ramírez vs Nacho Menen k-1 66 kg

One of the semi-main events of this edition took place, featuring local star Fran "Sidi" Ramírez against the well-known Madrid fighter Nacho Menen, a top contender in his weight class with a history of memorable fights. The fighter from Campillos, true to his style, followed the plan devised by his corner, sticking to it throughout the fight. He fought on the back foot, evading all of Menen's attacks with his characteristic elegance, and landing clean counters and low kicks during the first two rounds. The third round arrived, and Menen, sporting a deep cut on his shin and knowing this round would be decisive—since "Sidi" had shown his superiority in the previous rounds—came out all guns blazing, imposing a relentless pace and brutal pressure on his opponent. Menen was initially overwhelmed but seemed to regain his footing around the halfway point and landed some counterpunches. The final decision was announced, and Fran Ramírez's hand was initially raised. Then, following the referees' instructions, the victory was awarded to Nacho Menen by unanimous decision. Controversy has erupted, and a protest filed with the officiating crew remains pending.
