Heavyweight Championship


(Champ) Vincent Mars vs. (3.) Seamus Farrelly


Vincent Mars has been so far unstoppable as a champion, only the former champion Coconut Sprinkles has survived past the 1st round. This saturday with 8 wins and 8 ko's the champion is going to defend his belt for the 5th time. If Mars wins this fight he will be tied with Coconut Sprinkles in most title defences in Destiny FC Heavyweight history.  Mars is coming from TKO victory over Valentin Nasimentu and of course it came in very first round. Mars vs. Farrelly have big potential to be one of the greatest fights of this year. Both Neither one of them has never let their fights go to judges scoredcards and when you combine the records of these two you get 20 wins and KOs. In top of that they both very well rounded and very evenly  matched so it's hard to see how this fight could be boring.


Undefeated "Psycho" Seamus Farrelly signed to DFC with huge amount of hype behind him. Farrelly made sure when he signed that he wants to shot for the title right away and with 12-0 record it really was pretty obvious to the DFC crew. Seamus Farrelly is 23 years old fighter from Boston, USA. Farrelly is only 185cm tall and that gives the champion huge 32cm height advantage. Farrelly is also former LA Combat heavyweight champion with 2 title defences before the organization went down. "Psycho's" last couple of fight has been kickboxing fights so its been a while since his last MMA fight, but make no mistake about it Farrelly is BJJ purple belt and wonderful wrestler so he isn't just a stand and bang striker. Farrelly has huge opportunity ahead of him to become DFC heavyweight champion, but he has huge challenge ahead of him. Don't blink because these giants will put on a show.


 


Middleweight


(2.) Dee Nice vs. (17.) Jiggle Jiggle


In co-main event another very hyped fighter Dee "KO" Nice makes his debut against Jiggle Jiggle. Ranking wise this match seems like a terrible mismatch but skillwise this should be pretty even fight. Dee Nice has impressive 11-1 record so there is definately something behind the hype. The 23 yeard old american is former Ascension: Amsterdam middleweight champion with 9 of his wins coming by KO and 2 decision wins. Dee Nice is of course slight favourite going to this fight. Nice probably has small edge in boxing and wrestling against Jiggle, but Jiggle might be lil better in muay thai and BJJ so its exciting to see what kind of game plans these two are gonna bring to the cage. 


Jiggle "Jiggle Boobs" Jiggle has a lot of jiggles in his name but he also has 3-1 MMA record and 1-0 DFC record. He won Michael Robinson by first round armbar in his DFC debut and now he take big step up in competition against Nice. Jiggle is just 20 years old so he has plenty of years to improve so he doesn't have much to lose in this fight. 2 of 3 Jiggle's win has come via submission so that's definately something to watch in this fight. Jiggle Jiggle is much less known than his opponent so victory over Nice would be huge boost to his reputation and would shoot him right in the top of the division and in other hand if Nice loses it would be huge blow to his career.
