ABOUT
Colton Bjornson is the reigning KPL Super Heavyweight Champion and widely considered the most dangerous kidney striker in the world. A former competitive lumberjack from Alberta, Bjornson was recruited by the KPL after a video of him cracking a frozen side of beef with a single palm strike went viral. He is methodical, soft-spoken, and apologizes to opponents after knockouts. His fan base, known as “The Ice Shelf,” travels to every event in matching red flannels.

SPECIAL MOVE
The Glacier Crack
A crushing downward kidney strike delivered with the precision of a man who has spent his life splitting logs in subzero temperatures. Bjornson's strike has the highest average PSI in the Super Heavyweight division and has produced more Kidney Knockouts (7) than any active fighter.
TACTICAL ANALYSIS

TRAINING REGIMEN
- Punching frozen elk carcasses
- Ice bath sparring (sits in ice while training partner strikes his kidneys)
- Logging competitions
- 'Cold exposure therapy' (stands shirtless in Canadian winter, which is just called 'Tuesday' where he's from)
