PFL world champion Dakota Ditcheva will be the special guest of honour at MAX FIGHT 67 in Burgas on 28 November, the organisers said.

Ditcheva has Bulgarian roots and has never lost a fight. She is one of the best-known young names in world MMA.

The organisers say her visit matters for the 67th event itself, for the growth of combat sports in Bulgaria and for the country's image abroad.

In late October we reported that Toma Velikov and Burgas fighter Stoycho Nedev will open the MAX FIGHT 67 gala on 28 November at the Mladost hall in Burgas. Their bout is part of the new St Nicholas Cup tournament, which MAX FIGHT is organising with Burgas council.

In a video message to Bulgarian fans, the champion said: "Hello, Bulgarians! I'm coming back to Bulgaria for MAX FIGHT 67! I'll be glad to see you all in Burgas! Let's go!"
