Honored Master of Sports in WAKO kickboxing Roman Holovatiuk was killed at the front, the press service of the Sports Committee of Ukraine reports. The 28-year-old World Games finalist volunteered to serve after the start of the full-scale invasion. He was a junior sergeant.
Roman was born in the village of Krasnostavtsi, Khmelnytskyi region. In 2012, he entered the Podil State Agricultural and Technical University. In 2014, he started training in the kickboxing section. He was considered one of the best kickboxing athletes in WAKO.

In 2019, Holovatiuk became a world champion in Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina) in the K-1 division. In the summer of 2017, he took 3rd place at the World Games in Wroclaw, but later won silver when his opponent failed a doping test.
