Men's K-1 at WAKO World Championships 2007 Belgrade -57 kg

The men's featherweight (57 kg/125.4 lbs) K-1 category at the W.A.K.O. World Championships 2007 in Belgrade was the second lightest of the K-1 tournaments, involving nine fighters from three continents (Europe, Africa and South America). Each of the matches was three rounds of two minutes each and were fought under K-1 rules.

Due to the small number of contestants inappropriate for a sixteen-man tournament, seven of the fighters had byes through to the quarter-finals. The tournament winner was Ukraine's Maksym Glubochenko, who won the gold medal by defeating Serbia's Aleksandar Gogic. Defeated semi-finalists Gaetano Verziere (from Italy) and Yury Satsuk (from Belarus) won bronze medals.[1]
