==Kickboxing career== ===Early career=== Artur started boxing at age eleven, turning to Kickboxing a year later at the Captain Odesa gym in his home town of Odesa, Ukraine where he was trained by the Romanian Ukrainian Pavel A. Bătrînu.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://kyshenkoartur.com/html/bio.htm |title=Artur Kyshenko (Biography) |access-date=2011-03-02 |publisher=Kyshenkoartur.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110713175237/http://kyshenkoartur.com/html/bio.htm |archive-date=2011-07-13 }}</ref> In 2003, aged just 16, he entered the IMFA Amateur Muaythai World Championships held in Almaty, Kazakhstan finishing with a bronze medal in the {{convert|63.5|kg|lb|adj=on}} category. He followed this up the next year by winning a gold medal in the I.F.M.A. European championships and becoming Fighting Arts world champion. He was quickly becoming Ukraine's most promising young fighter and his winning of two national championships in 2005 and 2006 reinforced this view.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}
===K-1=== It was not until 2006 that Artur became known internationally, making his K-1 MAX debut at the K-1 East Europe MAX 2006 event. Artur won the event in Vilnius, Lithuania in dominating fashion, stopping all three opponents on the night to book his place at a reserve fight at K-1 MAX's premier event.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://k-1sport.de/en/database/show_tournament.php?id=352 | title=K-1 Lithuania Max 2006 - Tournament Overview - | K-1sport.de | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=k-1sport.de | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120601061947/http://k-1sport.de/en/database/show_tournament.php?id=352 | archive-date=2012-06-01 | url-status=dead }}</ref> He also won gold on the amateur circuit – this time coming top of the {{Convert|71|kg|abbr=on}} at the I.F.M.A. World Championships held in Bangkok, Thailand.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.kickboxermag.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=4597 | title=IFMA World Champs - Results FYI - International Kickboxer Forum | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=Kickboxermag.com.au | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110706105240/http://www.kickboxermag.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=4597 | archive-date=2011-07-06 | url-status=dead }}</ref> He then made an appearance at the K-1 World MAX 2006 Final defeated the wily veteran and multiple world champion Rayen Simson in their reserve match.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2006/0630_max_01.html | title=Buakaw Best in World Max Final : NEWS | K-1 OFFICIAL WEBSITE | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=K-1.co.jp | archive-date=2010-05-29 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100529112526/http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2006/0630_max_01.html | url-status=live }}</ref>
2007 was another useful year for Artur who made a number of victorious appearances at K-1 MAX events including an elimination fight win over K-1 MAX Seoul champion Su Hwan Lee at the K-1 World MAX 2007 World Tournament Final Elimination which meant he qualified for the quarter-finals stages of the K-1 MAX 2007 final. Artur made the semi-finals defeating the hard-hitting Mike Zambidis before losing to former champ and Japanese kickboxing legend Masato by KO despite being ahead on the judges' scorecards early on in the bout.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.k-1.co.jp/k-1gp/top791.htm | title=Sweet 'n Souwer K-1 World Max Final - K-1 OFFICIAL WEB SITE | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=K-1.co.jp | archive-date=2007-07-05 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070705051857/http://www.k-1.co.jp/k-1gp/top791.htm | url-status=dead }}</ref> He finished the year by winning gold for the second year in a row at the I.F.M.A World Championships.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.famaasiamuaythai.org/html/07_WrldChmp_day8.html |title = Day 8 - FAMA : Federation of Amateur Muaythai of Asia |access-date = 2011-03-02 |publisher = Famaasiamuaythai.org |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110726045428/http://www.famaasiamuaythai.org/html/07_WrldChmp_day8.html |archive-date = 2011-07-26 }}</ref>
Artur returned to K-1 action the next year defeating Jordan Tai and Yasuhiro Kido at elimination fights to make the final 4 in Tokyo. He met reigning MAX champion Andy Souwer in the semi-finals outworking the heavily favoured Dutchman to claim an extension round victory and face the previous year's finalist Masato in a rematch. Artur performed excellently in the final bout dropping Masato in the second but as he was unable to press his home his advantage the match went into an extension round which the local fighter won by a unanimous decision<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2008/1001_max_01.html | title=Masato Wins K-1 World Max '08 Championship | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=K-1.co.jp | archive-date=2011-08-11 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110811030548/http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2008/1001_max_01.html | url-status=live }}</ref> – a result some felt should never have gone into an extra round as the Ukrainian may have done enough over three rounds to have claimed victory. He entered the final again the following year destroying Alviar Lima in the final 16 before losing to Andy Souwer in the quarter-finals.
Of recent Artur has been on somewhat of a recent downward spiral with reports of the 5'11 Ukrainian having difficulties making the 70 kg weight limit and a mixed patch of results which saw victories over Murat Direkçi and Marcus Öberg being tempered with defeats to the un-fancied Hinata Watanabe and Mohammed Khamal – the latter costing him a quarter final place at the K-1 World MAX Final 2010. He has also switched gyms, moving from Captain Odesa in Ukraine to Mike's Gym in Amsterdam at the tail-end of 2010.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.headkicklegend.com/2010/11/4/1793230/artur-kyshenko-has-moved-to-amsterdam-to-train-at-mikes-gym-the-home | title=Artur Kyshenko has moved to Amsterdam to train at Mike's Gym | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=Headkicklegend.com | archive-date=2010-12-27 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101227103930/http://www.headkicklegend.com/2010/11/4/1793230/artur-kyshenko-has-moved-to-amsterdam-to-train-at-mikes-gym-the-home | url-status=live }}</ref> Kyshenko has been on a roll with his new gym, picking up wins against strong opposition such as Gago Drago and Nieky Holzken.
Even though Kyshenko's stance is mostly orthodox, many claim that due to the recent change of gyms, he is now a dual-stance, as seen in his fight against Gago Drago. (Editor's note: dual-stance meaning he uses both the orthodox and south-paw stance.)<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zFOyqVi5l4 |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211212/8zFOyqVi5l4| archive-date=2021-12-12 |url-status=live| title=Kyshenko vs Drago | access-date=2011-03-02 | publisher=youtube.com }}{{cbignore}}</ref>
He made short work of Chris Ngimbi in the quarter-finals of the ''K-1 World MAX 2012 World Championship Tournament Final'' before outpointing Andy Souwer in the semis, in the fourth match of their rivalry. He was then KO'd by his stable mate Murthel Groenhart in the final in Athens, Greece on December 15, 2012.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://liverkick.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2000:k-1-world-max-final-8-tournament-line-up&catid=36:k-1|title=K-1 World MAX Final 8: Tournament Line-up|publisher=LiverKick|author=Dave Walsh|access-date=2016-01-22|archive-date=2016-03-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304091517/http://liverkick.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2000:k-1-world-max-final-8-tournament-line-up&catid=36:k-1|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://liverkick.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2134:k-1-world-max-2012-final-live-results&catid=39:europe&Itemid=59|title=K-1 World MAX 2012 Final Live Results|author=Rian Scalia|date=8 September 2018|publisher=Liverkick.com|access-date=19 December 2012|archive-date=20 May 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140520221402/http://liverkick.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2134:k-1-world-max-2012-final-live-results&catid=39:europe&Itemid=59|url-status=live}}</ref>
