S-Cup Europe 2008 was a martial arts event co promoted by Shoot Boxing Europe and East Side Promotions. It was a preliminary qualifying tournament for the Shoot Boxing World Tournament 2008, involving ten fighters (two being reservists) with all bouts fought under Shoot Boxing rules (70 kg/154 lbs). All the tournament fighters were invitees selected on the basis of their achievements in kickboxing, Muay Thai and Savate (more information on the fighters is provided by the bulleted list below). As well as tournament matches there were also a number of opening fights and super fights (including a retirement fight), and a W.P.K.L. European title fight. One of the opening fights was fought under Shoot Boxing rules while the rest of the matches were fought under Muay Thai rules. In total there were thirty four fighters at the event, representing twelve countries, with weight classes ranging from under 32 kg to over 95 kg.
The S-Cup Europe 2008 tournament was won by Denis Schneidmiller who defeated Dzhabar Askerov in the final by third round split decision. As a result of his victory Schneidmiller would qualify for the Shoot Boxing World Tournament 2008. Other notable results saw Ruben van der Giessen defeat Christian di Paolo to win the W.P.K.L. light heavyweight European title (79 kg/174 lbs), while Gerald Zwane was unable to get a victory in his final bout, losing to Jan van Denderen by decision after three rounds.
