EFFA 5 - Signed in Blood 


Undercard


MEANS - MELEJOVIC    265lbs


Event starting with the clash of two strikers. Both fighters has good boxing skills and it will surely come out to the fighter with the best stamina and mental strength. Melejovis having a slight height advantage here, it can be important here.


ROTHSTEIN - KEMPNY    205lbs


Next out is two light heavyweight strikers. Rothstein has the edge in height and age but Kempny said in intervju that he is not afraid of Rothstein and has spotted several weaknesses. All talk? Well, lets see...


HITCHHIKER - ARTUR    170lbs


Thaiboxer versus Brawler. Two very young fighters aiming for glory. Artur still waiting to taste victory will surely come out strong here. But can he avoid Hitchhikers strong kicks and come in close to do damage? 


HENDERSON - MOONEY     205lbs


Henderson is the favourite here, no question about it with both age, height and experience advantage. But he better not underestimate his opponent Mooney. Making his debut here, Mooney is a strong kickboxer who surely can screw up anyones plans for a stroll in the park.


ZAROMSKICK - CHAN     170lbs


Two debutants clashing for glory here. Thaiboxer Zaromskick will surely try to hold his distance to land his well renowned highkicks. Chan being more of a brawler need to get in close and let his hands and elbows talk. 


Main Card


ANIMAI - SHAMROCK    205lbs


MT- Boxer. Animai coming in from a Fight of the Night win in EFFA 3 will surely glow of confidense here but Shamrock is a tough dude who will put a lot of pressure on Animai to land his powerful righthand blows.


KAFOK - VERHOEVEN     265lbs


Boxer - MT clash again. Not much separating these two fighters, but Kafok is slightly taller wich might work to his advantage trying to keep Verhoeven out of distance. This fight promise thunder and lightnings, I hope they can deliver some of that tonight.


HASELWOOD - EDWARDS    265lbs


Boxer - MT again. Haselwoods must try to get in close or Edwards will surely get his kicks working in his favour. Edwards want to bounce back after a painful lost and will not underestimate the power of a boxer once again. 


CoMain Event


McCOY - JULIAN     265lbs


Two top contenders in the heavyweight division. the winner here will surely be in a good position to get a titlefight soon so be sure there will be nothing stopping these two fighters from ripping eachother apart. McCoy is more experienced but Julian has a decent 20cm height advantage here. 


MAIN EVENT


PAPU - PETERSON      155lbs TITLEFIGHT


The fourth title to be decided in EFFA. Papu coming in with a 3-0 record here stands as a slight favourite with the bookies, Peterson is not far behind and has proven strength in EFFA already. Both fighters being very strong strikers so surely we will see a KO here. But who can land first?
