The correct title of this article is Branko Cikatić. It appears incorrectly here due to technical restrictions.

Branko "The Tiger" Cikatić (October 3, 1954 - ) is a Croatian kickboxer, best known as the winner of the first K-1 Grand Prix tournament held on April 30, 1993 in Japan.

Cikatić surprised the martial arts world by storming the 1993 K-1 Grand Prix tournament, knocking out all three of his opponents in one evening, including Ernesto Hoost in the final match. To date, Cikatić is the oldest winner of the K-1 Grand Prix at 38 years 208 days.

Towards the end of his sports career, Cikatić also tried himself as an actor, playing the lead villain role in a 1997 B-action movie Skyscraper, starring Anna Nicole Smith.
