Founded at the beginning of 2020, new Italian promotion KUMITEVENT was scheduled to hold their first event in March which featured many of Europe’s top athletes, including the UK’s Mo Abdurahman and Italian superstar Cristian Faustino.
However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and Italy being one of the first European countries to enforce a national lockdown, KUMITEVENT had to withdraw plans for their highly anticipated debut event.
