IT’S SHOWTIME organized its second show in Spain on November 12, 2011. Presented by Street Culture, Fightclub Group & Canary Kickboxing Federation, IT’S SHOWTIME 53 took place in Pabellón Santiago Martín on the beautiful island of Tenerife.

In the main event of the evening, Danyo Ilunga from Germany managed to retain his IT’S SHOWTIME world title 95kg max by defeating Tenerife’s own Loren Javier Jorge by unanimous decision. This was already Ilunga’s second successful title defense after winning the vacant belt by beating Wendell Roche in Amsterdam.

Giorgio Petrosyan had a tough night in his comeback fight. After three rounds in the ring with Spain’s Zeben Díaz, the Italian Petrosyan won the fight by a slight lead, 3-2.
