Cătălin Moroșan (30 June 1984) is a retired Romanian kickboxer, chanbara practitioner and professional rugby player. He is best known for his time in the Superkombat Fighting Championship (SUPERKOMBAT), where he competed in the heavyweight division. Moroșanu also competed for Local Kombat, K-1, Glory and Dynamite Fighting Show. He is currently a politician and kickboxing promoter, serving as president of the Dynamite Fighting Show. He is the winner of season 9 of Romanian Dancing with the Stars and winner of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! Season 1.
He held notable victories in his career over Stefan Leko, Gary Goodridge, Mighty Mo, Carter Williams, Paul Slowinski, Freddy Kemayo and Anderson Silva. Moroșanu was considered to be slugger (brawler). Moroșanu still holds the record for longest winning streak in SUPERKOMBAT history with 17 consecutive wins. His streak, started in 2011, came to an end in controversial loss to Daniel Sam at SUPERKOMBAT World Grand Prix: Puerto Rico in 2016. In 2018, he was #10 contender in the world in official GLORY heavyweight rankings. And as of 6 June 2019, he is ranked the #12 heavyweight in the world by All The Best Fights. In 2017, Disney Pixar chose the kickboxer to provide the Romanian voice of a local from the animated movie Coco.
