The first K-1 champ and only one of three that won all 3 fights at the WGP with KO (Andy Hug 1996 and Semmy Schilt in 2009 are the other two).

"I'm like Neil Armstrong"
LMAO what a legend.
Also this bit:
Michael Schiavello: "What do you remember from the night of your 1993 K-1 victory?"
Brank Cikatic: "I remember when I took 100.000 USD"

If loving classic 80s & 90s fight scenes is wrong, I don't want to be right!

Please take the time to watch this.
This has to be one of the weirdest but somehow greatest videos from Cikatic's fighting career:
Cikatic with Harinck and Aerts in his corner, fighting Denis Alexio (yes, from Kickboxer) in front of a pumped Las Vegas crowd, with Bruce Buffer announcing and JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME doing co-commentary for his movie-brother.
The fight itself is very clinchy, but both fighters are hurting each other from the very first bell.
About halfway through Alexio ignores the ref and decides to go after Cikatic two decades before Badr made ignoring refs look cool and that's when total chaos ensues.
After a bunch of WWE style moments in the ring the commentary team decides it was all the refs fault and the fight resulted in a TECHNICAL DRAW, which is something that I have NEVER heard of EVER.
Both corners talk some shit and Thom Harinck gives the reporter a piece of his mind in his best English lol.
While the way the fight played out definitely wasn't a highlight in either guy's career, that night is probably more iconic because of the controversy.
Also, Chuck Norris in the audience chewing gum while sporting a mullet, looking like Renegade, is a classic image.

Very few people managed to one shot Hoost. Cikatic did it twice while pushing 40!
