Ivan Vitasović: Croatia’s Heavyweight MMA Prospect
From Pula to the Pan-European Ranks
At 33, Ivan Vitasović carries a 13-6-1 professional record into each bout. The Pula native trains with Trojan Free Fighters and stands 6’2” tall, a frame he has used effectively in the heavyweight division. He has carved out his career across Croatia and neighboring countries, steadily moving from small-scale events to increasingly competitive cards in Eastern Europe.
Vitasović is currently ranked ninety-second among MMA fighters in Europe and holds spots in four subregional standings: the Balkans, Eastern Europe, Poland, and his home country of Croatia. Those rankings reflect a specific pattern—he has competed at least twice in each of those areas over his last six fights, and he has fought as a heavyweight in his two most recent bouts.
More than twenty fights into his career, Vitasović has become a constant on regional fight posters. As he eyes opportunities on larger European stages, his challenge will be translating regional success into higher-profile wins without losing the aggressive edge that defines his style.
