Kazakhstan’s very own Zakir Manyanbayev is set to make his Power Slap debut at Power Slap XI in Saudi Arabia, bringing with him a reputation as one of the most unorthodox and entertaining strikers the sport has ever seen. From viral training videos to an ironclad mentality, Zakir is ready to make a statement against Troels Nielsen.
A Viral Sensation Enters Power Slap
Zakir’s rise to international fame didn’t happen overnight. For the past six years, he’s been creating viral training videos, showcasing insane strength, explosive power, and an unmatched intensity. His unique approach to training has captured the attention of millions, with his most recent video racking up 55 million views—even catching the eye of Jake Paul and other high-profile figures.
“I’ve been making videos like this for six years. People are watching more and more, and the views just keep growing. The last video even got 55 million views, and even Jake Paul and many other celebrities commented. That was an amazing feeling.”
Now, the internet sensation is ready to transition from viral videos to real-world dominance at the Power Slap table.
No Studying, Just Pure Confidence
Despite making his debut on one of the biggest Power Slap stages yet, Zakir isn’t focused on his opponent. When asked about Trolls Nielsen, his answer was simple:
“To be honest, nothing. I know nothing about him.”
This wasn’t an oversight—it’s part of Zakir’s mindset. He’s not concerned about who is standing across from him. His focus is on his own power, his own skills, and his ability to put his opponent to sleep in one shot.
“I will do my best to knock him out from the very first punch.”
That kind of confidence is what makes Zakir a fighter to watch.
The Kazakhstan Gladiator
Physically, Zakir stands out from other super heavyweights in the Power Slap division. His lean, sculpted frame is more reminiscent of a gladiator than the traditional bulky, powerhouse strikers seen in the sport. But Zakir believes his unique physique is an advantage—not just in this fight, but in Power Slap as a whole.
“People already call me crazy, and I agree. From a crazy fighter, you can always expect the unexpected. And I will knock him out with my very first slap.”
He’s not just here to win—he’s here to redefine what it means to be a super heavyweight in Power Slap.
Fighting for Kazakhstan
For Zakir, this match isn’t just about personal success. It’s about representing Kazakhstan on a global stage. He takes immense pride in being the first fighter from his country to compete in Power Slap and wants to show the world that Kazakhstan produces elite combat sports athletes.
“I love my country. I was born and raised here. I want to show the world that Kazakhstan has powerful warriors who can win big tournaments and show their strength.”
With combat sports stars like Gennady Golovkin (GGG) and Shavkat Rakhmonov already putting Kazakhstan on the map in boxing and MMA, Zakir wants to do the same for Power Slap.
No Idols—Just Zakir
Unlike many athletes who enter the sport with inspirations or role models, Zakir approaches things differently. When asked if he had any slap fighters he looked up to, his response was clear:
“To be honest, I don’t have any idols because I want to show myself here and make people look at me as their idol.”
His goal is simple—dominate the sport, become a legend, and inspire the next generation of slap fighters.
Final Message
Zakir Manyanbayev is ready to bring Kazakh power to Power Slap XI and shock the world with his explosive style. His opponent, Trolls Nielsen, better be prepared—because Zakir has only one plan:
“Don’t miss, because I won’t. And I hit like a brick. I hope you have a good chin, because you won’t get two chances.”
With an electrifying debut on the horizon, the world will soon see what Kazakhstan’s craziest slap fighter is truly capable of.
