Nenad "Greek" Pagonis (born 28 July 1987 in Serbia) is a Greek-Serbian heavyweight-cruiserweight Muay Thai kickboxer as of 2013 fighting out of Mike's Gym in Amsterdam, Netherlands and Team Pagonis in Novi Sad, Serbia.[2][3] In 2010 he became W.A.K.O. Pro world champion (K-1 rules). He won a number of world and European titles at amateur level.

Biography/Career

While training in Muay Thai and kickboxing at the Ronin Gym in Novi Sad, Pagonis became one of Serbia's kickboxing prospects. In 2006, at the age of 19, he won a gold medal at the yearly Balkan games, and won gold at the W.A.K.O. European championships held in Macedonia. From 2007 to 2009 he won two world championships, two world cups and a further Balkans championship.

In 2010 Pagonis became professional, and won the W.A.K.O Pro world title against reigning champion Antonio Sousa, winning by a third round stoppage victory in Milan Sousa was knocked down three times before the referee stopped the fight. Pagonis then joined Mike's Gym in the Netherlands where he trained with fighters including Badr Hari and Melvin Manhoef.[4] Pagonis also appeared on It's Showtime in Athens in 2010, where he defeated Rustemi Kreshnik by decision, allowing him to challenge the reigning It's Showtime 95MAX champion Danyo Ilunga the following year.

A planned fight on December 9, 2012 under the newly formed Serbian "Supreme Fighting Championship" organisation did not take place after Pagonis was injured.

He was scheduled to fight Steve McKinnon at Glory 7: Milan in Milan, Italy on April 20, 2013 but pulled out of the event due to unknown reasons.[5]

He lost to Artem Vakhitov by unanimous decision on the Glory 12: New York - Lightweight World Championship Tournament undercard in New York City on November 23, 2013.[6][7][8][9]
