Tadeáš Růžička outpoints Mateusz Janik at PML 21

Tadeáš „Mawar“ Růžička secured a hard-fought unanimous decision victory over veteran Mateusz Janik at PML 21 in Třinec, surviving a dangerous opening round to claim his second straight win since returning to professional competition. Fighting under K-1 rules in the 71-kilogram division, Růžička weathered early pressure from a Polish opponent holding over 180 fights of experience before turning the tide across three intense rounds.”

The bout, held shortly after 10:00 p.m. local time on Saturday, October 3, 2026, marked Růžička’s promotional debut under the PML (Professional Muaythai League) banner.

Surviving Early Storms and Shifting Momentum in the Ring

Janik immediately established a high pace inside the ring, catching Růžička with a sharp high kick in the opening minute that tested the Czech fighter’s durability. Rather than rushing blindly for a knockout, Růžička absorbed the impact, reset his rhythm, and began countering with crisp boxing combinations and low kicks.

According to available ringside scoring details, all three judges awarded the first round to Růžička based on his superior volume and forward pressure. The second stanza proved tighter, with two judges scoring in favor of Růžička and one favoring Janik, who utilized clinch knees and a spinning backfist to threaten the middle distance. In the final round, Růžička maintained his output, keeping Janik on the defensive and ultimately sealing a 3–0 scorecard sweep.
