The 10 Best King of the Streets (KOTS) Fights of All Time
King of the Streets is the most notorious underground fighting organization on the planet. Founded in Gothenburg, Sweden around 2013 by the anonymous "Hype Crew," KOTS operates under the simplest ruleset in combat sports: no rules, no rounds, no decisions. Fights on concrete, bare hands, headbutts legal, everything legal. A fight ends only when someone is knocked out, submits, or quits.
These are the 10 best KOTS fights, ranked by action quality, stakes, viewership, and significance.
10. Insanus vs. Shooter — KOTS 55: Unrivaled
Views: 800K+ | What Made It Great: Two teenagers waging war on concrete
Two streetfighters barely out of their teens -- Shooter, an 18-year-old from Copenhagen, and Insanus, a 19-year-old from Berlin -- delivered one of the bloodiest fights in KOTS history. Shooter wore Muay Thai shorts; Insanus showed up in black jeans. What followed was a raw, extended brawl of punches, kick feints, and brief ground scrambles on an unforgiving surface. By the end, both men were covered in blood. Shooter secured the finish from mount with hammerfists until the referee mercifully stepped in. A reminder that KOTS doesn't care about your age -- only whether you can survive.

9. Orange Dwarf vs. Sercan — KOTS 88: Rooftop Fights
Views: 900K+ | What Made It Great: Football firm tribalism and a size-defying knockout
"Orange Dwarf," a 20-year-old Apoel Nicosia hooligan standing just 167 cm and weighing 63 kg, faced Sercan, a 26-year-old Turkish-German kickboxer of equal weight but five centimeters taller. The fight was contested under K.O. ONLY rules on a rooftop -- one of KOTS's more dramatic venues. Orange Dwarf's Muay Thai timing neutralized Sercan's kickboxing range, and the finish came fast. The clip went viral across far-right football hooligan channels, celebrated as a David-and-Goliath story. The tribal dimensions were ugly; the fighting itself was technically sharp.

8. Bloodaxe vs. KNF — KOTS 111
Views: 1.1M+ | What Made It Great: The dirtiest fight in KOTS history
Eric "Bloodaxe" Olsen, a 40-year-old bare-knuckle brawler from Levittown, New York -- the only American regular on the KOTS roster -- faced Pietrek "KNF" Pietrula, a 24-year-old Polish hooligan, in an abandoned car park. KNF dominated standing, dropping Olsen with a right hand to the temple. But on the ground, Olsen found his weapon: he swept KNF from top position via single-leg takedown and forced a submission through repeated thumb gouges to the eye. The Pole had no choice but to concede. Critics called it the fight that proved KOTS has no floor. Supporters shrugged: the rules say no rules.

7. Kast8 vs. Oak — KOTS 107: Mass Hypnosis
Views: 1.3M+ | What Made It Great: A headbutt finish that rewrote the conversation
Kast8, a 29-year-old Zenit St. Petersburg hooligan from Russia's Fatal Group, versus Oak, a 29-year-old HFA Arka Gdynia hooligan from Poland. Nearly identical in size -- 95 kg against 94 kg -- and both fighting under No Rules format. Oak showed the more versatile game, mixing kicks and even a bicycle knee. But the finish is what people remember: after a takedown, Oak uncorked a headbutt straight down into Kast8's nose and mouth, then followed with twelve-to-six elbows to the forehead until the referee stopped it. The slow-motion replay circulated on combat sports forums for months. On concrete, with headbutts legal, the violence ceiling has no limit.

6. Leo vs. Oak — KOTS: Obnoxious (January 2025)
Views: 1.5M+ | What Made It Great: A ten-minute war between a boxer and a hooligan
Leo, a Mexican boxer with a 1-0 KOTS record, against Oak, the Polish hooligan already carrying a 2-0 streak. This fight lasted approximately ten minutes -- an eternity in no-rules fighting on concrete. Leo's traditional boxing footwork created angles early, drawing Oak into exchanges where timing mattered more than size. But Oak's conditioning and speed advantage accumulated over the duration. The finish came on the ground: Oak took Leo down and pummeled his head on the pavement until the bloodied Mexican tapped out. A showcase of what happens when skilled fighters from different worlds meet under no rules.

5. Tomasz vs. Bloodaxe — KOTS: Concrete Fights
Views: 1.8M+ | What Made It Great: The grappler's revenge against KOTS's most infamous fighter
Tomasz, a French fighter giving up over 20 kg to the 106 kg Bloodaxe, entered a beef fight with real animosity behind it. Eric Olsen's reputation as KOTS's dirtiest competitor preceded him. But Tomasz was a grappler, and grapplers on concrete carry a specific kind of danger. He locked in a guillotine choke and forced Bloodaxe to submit -- a clean, technical finish against the man known for eye gouges and every other dirty trick in the book. The clip became a foundational moment for the "KOTS can produce real martial arts" argument.

4. Bloodaxe vs. Orsu Corsu — KOTS: Obnoxious (January 2025)
Views: 2.2M+ | What Made It Great: The beef fight that defined KOTS's ethical floor
Maxime "Orsu Corsu" Bellamy -- a 22-year-old Corsican fighter with a 3-0 KOTS record and genuine technical pedigree -- publicly called out Bloodaxe. The fight was booked as a Beef Fight on the Obnoxious card. What followed was brief and ugly. Corsu went for Bloodaxe's eye early; Bloodaxe responded by taking him down and returning the favor with thumb strikes to the eyes and choking until Corsu tapped. Critics pointed to this as the single worst advertisement for no-rules fighting ever filmed. The video surpassed two million views anyway. KOTS doesn't flinch.

Views: 3.4M+ | What Made It Great: The fight that defines KOTS
If there is one fight that defines King of the Streets, it is this one. Simon "The Savage" Henriksen, Denmark's most successful KOTS fighter, versus "M16" (Malte), a German streetfighter with a kickboxing background. Both were among the most active and recognized names on the KOTS roster, and the buildup created genuine anticipation the organization had never experienced before.
Both fighters came out aggressively from the opening seconds. The exchanges were violent, sustained, and technically sharper than most KOTS bouts. Wild striking mixed with brutal clinch work, and the fight went longer than expected -- accumulating the kind of damage that makes medical professionals wince.

1. Shooter vs. Insanus II — The Rematch
Views: 4.1M+ | What Made It Great: Proof that no-rules fighting can produce genuine rivalry
After their first war at KOTS 55, the rematch between Shooter and Insanus carried real stakes -- personal animosity, unfinished business, and the memory of blood on concrete. Both fighters had matured and improved. Both showed striking skill that would be respectable in any professional promotion. The pivotal moment: a perfectly timed elbow from the clinch -- a technique legal in KOTS but rarely used with this kind of precision -- landing flush on the temple. Instant knockout. The crowd went silent before erupting.
This fight answered a question KOTS had been implicitly asking since 2013: what happens when skilled fighters compete under no rules and personal stakes? The answer was spectacular, terrifying, and unforgettable. The video surpassed four million views and became the centerpiece of KOTS highlight reels and the broader conversation about whether no-rules fighting can produce legitimate martial arts competition.

A Note on KOTS
KOTS's documented connections to football hooliganism and far-right extremist networks raise serious ethical questions -- exposed in detail by Sports Politika's Swedish investigation. The concrete surface and absence of medical professionals create genuine risks of permanent injury. Many fights have been removed from YouTube for content policy violations and now exist primarily on BitChute, Telegram, and the official KOTS website. These are realities that anyone engaging with KOTS content should understand. But on the narrow question of which fights are worth watching, these 10 represent the best the organization has produced across a decade of no-rules fighting in Europe.
