EFFA

Author:

 Hello again!


Time for the 6th event and the first in the Underground arena. I hope to see a soldout arena with 1000 raging fans. Ok, lets see what we have tonight...


UNDERCARD


Shiba Cub - Helmut Heuer    170lbs


The ridiculous tall Cub against a more normal built MT fighter Heuer. Safe to say that Heuer will have problems to land headkicks today. Cub is an alround brawler but can he withstand the power of Heuer? Not so sure about that.


Oliver De Groot - Dayne Westwood    170lbs


Two brawlers stepping up here. Westwood being the older and taller fighter might have the edge but debuting is never easy, De Groot has done that successfully and is looking to build up his record here. 


Mirko Filipovic - Larry Primal    265lbs


Two debutant MTs here. Exciting fight where Primal is clearly larger then his opponent. Can Filipovic stay mobile enough to keep Primal out of distance? Filipovic is not an easy walk-over for sure, but I can't help to see Primal as a slight favourite here. But I have been wrong before.


Jason Strong - Mitrofan Ivanich    155lbs


Two MT fighters again. Two fighters in need of a victory in their EFFA debuts. I can not pick a favourite here but I have a hard time imagining this going the full distance. 


Aaron Lowe - Unssi Pauna    265lbs


Heavyweight clash between two strikers. Lowe being the heavier but Pauna is taller. Wich will give most advantage here? I'm not so sure but both fighters are keen on getting their first career win so it will most likely be an allout war. Crowd control please stay alert!


MAIN CARD


Tella Bunteknete - Andromedovv Splahrn     155lbs


Two boxer/strikers, both with a 1-0 record clash here. Intresting EFFA debut for Splahrn against the tough nut Bunteknete. This will be entertaining for sure. 


Synteettinen Steroidi - Niklaus Michaels    170lbs


Top contenders in the 170 division squaring out for the chance to challenge the Champion. This is a very exciting matchup with a solid MT fighter Steroidi who destroyed his last opponent with a vicious knee early and the experienced and wellrounded Michaels who desperatly wants a rematch with Kato, this time for the belt.


Roman Shebanov - Ramsey Hidjen   265lbs


The heavyweight division is loaded with potential challengers for the title and despite the pretty nonimpressive records of these two they can't be counted out of the equation just yet. Hidjen has never fought under KT rules despite being a standup specialist and most losses are from being submitted in MMA fights. Shebanov bounced back with a win last fight and is keen to keep the momentum up now.


CO-MAIN EVENT


Frank Bailey - Jack Hammer   265lbs


Two top heavyweights again. Hammer need to redeem himself after the loss against Brooklyn Brawler for the title. Bailey coming in to EFFA with a fine record with both his losses from submissions in MMA rules. Both are wellrounded MT fighters with solid striking to match. Hammer sligthly older but Bailey more experienced. Very exciting fight!


MAIN EVENT


Oby d'Great - Jorge Pericic    205lbs Titlefight


The first defence of an EFFA title is up when d'Great wants to retain his belt here. But he faces toughest competition available in KO specialist Pericic. Can d'Great grind down Pericic or will we have the first dethroning of a Champion? Only one way to find out....I'm way to excited!!!


LETS FIGHT!


Good luck to everyone involved. Winning or losing, you are all champions in my eyes!


Cheers


Ozric Opalhead, President of Extreme Fist Fighting Association
