Headlining Power Slap 18 will be a Light Heavyweight Title match between current Power Slap Light Heavyweight Champion Ron “Wolverine” Bata (16-5) and former Super Heavyweight Champion Koa “Da Crazy Hawaiian” Viernes (14-1-2). Wolverine recently defended his belt in Abu Dhabi at Power Slap 16 against Alan Klingbeil – a match that Dana White called the “greatest slap fighting match in history.” The match won the 2025 Power Slap award for “Match of the Year.” One of the greatest slap fighters to ever compete – Wolverine – steps back on stage in a title defense that will define his legacy. His opponent – Da Crazy Hawaiian – is the former Power Slap Super Heavyweight Champion, a slap fighting pioneer and one of the biggest stars in the sport. Da Crazy Hawaiian enters a new weight class at nearly 200 pounds lighter than his last match. These two legends have yet to face off against each other – at Power Slap 18, each will have the opportunity to cement their place in Power Slap history.
The remainder of the Power Slap 18 card will be announced in the coming weeks.
Dan Hellie will call the action alongside former UFC Middleweight Champion and Hall of Famer Michael Bisping. Charly Arnolt will handle reporting duties. The ring announcer will be Justin Bernard.
