Kie is now 38 years old, he has a wife and two kids and his main focus is to coach the up and coming fighters and pass on his knowledge but he hasn’t excluded the possibility of stepping into the ring again in the future.

Outside of fighting Kie holds a great interest towards bull fighting and has a career as a bull fighter and a breeder back in his home town.
