Five-time World's Strongest Man, Mariusz Pudzianowski is ready to return to the ring for his second professional fight.

Polish MMA organization, KSW is currently trying to secure an opponent for "Pudzian." He likely will face former Sumo champion Robert Paczków at KSW 13 in late May, according to Five Ounces of Pain.

Pudzianowski made a successful MMA debut last December when he dismantled professional boxer and fellow MMA debutant, Marcin "El Testosteron" Najman in less than a minute at KSW 12. While the bout against Najman constituted a one-sided beatdown against an equally inexperienced (in MMA, not in combat sports in general) and much smaller opponent, Pudzianowski will see his size advantage nullified against the equally (and possibly more) hefty Paczków: "Pudzian" stands at 6'1" and weighs around 300 pounds, while Paczków also walks around near 300+ pounds.

Like Pudzianowski, Paczków is also 1-0 in his professional MMA career, with a victory over TUF 10 cast member, James McSweeney via "smother" at Cage Rage 24.

For those of you wondering how one could win a fight via "smother," watch a demonstration by Paczków after the jump.
