OKTAGON Underground je originální koncept vytvořený naší organizací OKTAGON MMA. Vznikl původně jako speciální soutěžní pyramida, která nabízela skvělou podívanou v době, kdy se svět potýkal s karanténou a omezeními. Aby ani fanoušci ani zápasníci nebyli ochuzeni o svůj milovaný sport, přišli jsme s unikátním nápadem a rozjeli hru podle našich vlastních pravidel.&nbsp;O několik let později už tuhle napínavou soutěž sice nevyhlašujeme, s Underground pravidly se však můžete setkat i nadále. Co tedy znamená, když má zápas pravidla Undergroundu?<h2>PRAVIDLA OKTAGON UNDERGROUND: CO JE JINAK?&nbsp;</h2>Jednou větou: Jde o zápas v postoji v malých MMA rukavicích a místo 5 kol se zápasí ve 3 kolech na 3 minuty.&nbsp;Radši v bodech?<ul><li>Zápas je kratší než klasický MMA zápas.

Nejčastěji se tak volí pro atraktivitu zápasu mezi konkrétními jmény, po náročnějším comebacku do klece či pokud na poslední chvíli odpadne soupeř a utkat by se měli zápasníci z jiné váhové kategorie (příkladem je třeba zápas Bartl vs. Magnor na OKTAGONu 42).Pravidla Undergroundu nadále přináší napínavou podívanou v postoji, která řadě zápasníků vyloženě svědčí. Podívejte se na naše oblíbené zápasy a přesvědčte se, co tahle speciální hra přináší.

O fenoménu OKTAGON Underground jste už určitě slyšeli. Napínavá soutěž, která překonala koronavirové uzavírky a posílila lásku Čechů a Slováků k bojovým sportům, se navždy zapsala do historie naší organizace. S jejími pravidly se ale v OKTAGONu setkáte čas od času znovu. Co tedy znamená, pokud se bojuje podle pravidel Undergroundu? Jak se zápas liší od klasického MMA a proč se k těmto speciálním pravidlům vracíme?

UNDERGROUND VS. MMA. JAKÝ JE ROZDÍL?

OKTAGON Underground ist ein originelles Konzept, das von unserer Organisation OKTAGON MMA entwickelt wurde. Es entstand zuerst als eine besondere Wettkampfpyramide, die eine glänzende Show lieferte in einer Zeit, als die Welt mit Quarantäne und Beschränkungen beschäftigt war. Damit die Fans und die Kämpfer nicht auf ihren geliebten Sport verzichten mussten, haben wir uns diese einzigartige Idee ausgedacht und angefangen, das Spiel nach unseren eigenen Regeln zu spielen.Einige Jahre später geben wir zwar nicht mehr den Startschuss zu diesem spannenden Wettbewerb, die Underground-Regeln werden euch aber weiterhin begegnen. Was bedeutet es also, wenn ein Kampf nach Underground-Regeln ausgetragen wird?<h2>DIE OKTAGON UNDERGROUND REGELN: WAS IST ANDERS?</h2>In einem Satz: Es handelt sich um einen Kampf im Stand mit kleinen MMA-Handschuhen und statt in 5 Runden wird in 3 Runden à 3 Minuten gekämpft.Lieber in Stichpunkten?Der Kampf ist kürzer als ein klassischer MMA-Kampf. Die Kampfdauer ist 3x3, also drei Runden zu je drei Minuten. Im Fall eines Unentschiedens gibt es noch eine Entscheidungsrunde.Es wird mit MMA-Handschuhen gekämpft.Erlaubt sind alle bekannten Techniken für den Standkampf und auch für den Kampf am Netz, wobei beide aktiv sein müssen.Der Kampf kann durch Takedowns auf den Boden verlagert werden. Dort gilt die aktive Kontrolle nach drei Sekunden als erfolgreich und es wird danach wieder im Stand weitergekämpft.Submissions und Ringen im Stand sind erlaubt.Hinsichtlich des Kampfendes und der Punktevergabe gibt es keine Unterschiede zu den klassischen MMA-Regeln.&nbsp;Im Detail: Eine genauere Regelbeschreibung, nicht erlaubte Techniken und die Art der Punktevergabe findet ihr unter&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://oktagonmma.com/underground-rules/">https://oktagonmma.com/underground-rules/</a><h2>WARUM EIGENTLICH?</h2>Für die Kämpfer ist die Teilnahme an einem Wettkampf nach Underground-Regeln keine Pflicht. Meistens entscheiden sie sich dazu wegen der Attraktivität eines Kampfes zwischen bestimmten Namen, nach einem anstrengenden Comeback im Käfig oder wenn ein Gegner im letzten Moment ausfällt und sich Kämpfer aus unterschiedlichen Gewichtsklassen gegenüberstehen würden (ein Beispiel dafür war Bartl vs. Magnor in OKTAGON 42).Die Underground-Regeln sorgen weiterhin für eine spannende Show im Standkampf, wie eine ganze Reihe von Kämpfern beweist. Seht euch unsere Lieblingskämpfe an und überzeugt euch davon, was dieses besondere Format zu bieten hat.

Sicher habt ihr schon vom OKTAGON Underground Phänomen gehört. Der spannende Wettbewerb, der die Beschränkungen der Corona-Pandemie überstand und die Liebe der Tschechen und Slowaken zum Kampfsport gestärkt hat, ist für immer in die Geschichte unserer Organisation eingegangen. Die dazugehörigen Regeln werden euch bei OKTAGON aber immer wieder begegnen. Was bedeutet es eigentlich, wenn nach Underground-Regeln gekämpft wird? Wie unterscheidet sich ein solcher Kampf vom klassischen MMA und warum kehren wir zu diesen speziellen Regeln zurück?

UNDERGROUND VS. MMA: WAS IST DER UNTERSCHIED?

OKTAGON Underground is an original concept created by our organization OKTAGON MMA. It originated as a special competition bracket that offered a great show at a time when the world was struggling with quarantine and restrictions. In order to ensure that neither the fans nor the fighters had their beloved sport taken from them, we came up with a unique idea and started the game according to our own rules.A few years later, we don't organize this exciting competition anymore, but you can still encounter the Underground <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://rules.So">rules.So</a> what does it mean when a match has Underground rules?<h2>OKTAGON UNDERGROUND RULES: WHAT'S DIFFERENT?</h2>In one sentence: It is a stand up fight with small MMA gloves and instead of five rounds, the fight is divided into three roundsof three minutes each.Radši v bodech?<ul><li>The fight is shorter than a classic MMA fight.

Most often, it is chosen for the attractiveness of a fight between certain big names, after a challenging comeback to the cage or if an opponent cancels at the last minute and two fighters of different weight classes are supposed to face each other (for example the Bartl vs. Magnor fight at OKTAGON 42).The Underground rules make for a thrilling show in stand up, where many fighters are right at home. Watch our favorite fights and see for yourself what this special game has to offer.

You've certainly heard about the phenomenon that is OKTAGON Underground. A thrilling competition that overcame the coronavirus related lockdowns and strengthened the love that Czechs and Slovaks have for martial arts and has forever left its mark on the history of our organization. But in OKTAGON, you will come across the Underground rules from time to time. So what does it mean to fight according to the Underground rules? What makes this fight different from classic MMA and why do we keep coming back to these special rules? 

UNDERGROUND VS. MMA. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

One of them considered walking away from the sport after neck surgery. The other stepped back into the cage after almost seven years and lost at the first attempt. Now both are hitting restart. And they are doing it against each other. Zdeněk “Gameover” Polívka will fight on Czech soil in OKTAGON for the first time since February 2022. Across the cage stands German hard-hitter Timo Feucht, a man the UFC once wanted, who has never left a single one of his eight wins in the judges’ hands. On October 17, the Mattoni Arena in Karlovy Vary will lock them in the cage, and only one of them will walk back into the game as a winner.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/56da932a-9a39-40dc-8f8c-8b5b03f867d7/cs.1790772912987.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/bcc67e96-356a-4040-b26b-34808e818c6b/cs.1790772919531.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>ZDENĚK “GAMEOVER” POLÍVKA: THE GAME ISN’T OVER YET</h2>Zdeněk Polívka (10-8) grew up with seven sisters and a brother. He was bullied as a child, so at thirteen a neighbour who ran a boxing gym in Nymburk started training him. He made his professional debut at eighteen, and a year later he was already fighting in South Korea. At twenty, however, his health stopped him in his tracks. Heart problems nearly ended his career and he disappeared from the cage for two years. He entered the yellow-and-black world in May 2020 through the COVID-era OKTAGON Underground project, where he stopped Pavel Salčák by KO in the second round and outpointed Daniel Hromek in the super final. Hromek also features on the Karlovy Vary card. Polívka made his loudest statement in autumn 2021. In September, at Prague’s O2 universum, he dropped UFC veteran Eric Spicely with a single shot after 82 seconds, and six weeks later in Pardubice he added the biggest scalp of his career by outpointing Poland’s Robert Bryczek over three rounds. That took his OKTAGON record to 4-1.Then his career turned into a rollercoaster. Losses to Lohoré, Krištofič and Khajevand alternated with wins over Koné and Chadwick. After February 2022, every one of his OKTAGON fights took place abroad. “Germany didn’t suit me in any way,” he said in 2023. He went back anyway, and in May 2025 in Munich he outpointed home fighter Harun Uzun despite stepping into the cage with a fever. It was his light heavyweight debut and his second straight OKTAGON win. In camp he also worked with Dominik Humburger and Daniel Škvor, who now headline the main event and co-main event in Karlovy Vary.What followed was his darkest chapter. After a string of cancelled fights, he had to undergo neck surgery in August 2025. Yet by November he was already back in action at PML 17 in Prague against Mateusz Duczmal. The fight was over after 24 seconds and Polívka left in a neck brace, bound for Prague’s Na Homolce Hospital. “Many times I thought about calling it quits,” he admitted this spring. “But my best fighting years are still ahead of me.” He holds a 7-4 record in OKTAGON, and in Karlovy Vary he wants to kick-start his career and get back to where it was once heading. Towards the title.<oktinstagramcomponent url="https://www.instagram.com/p/Dc1MMeEG9LH/"></oktinstagramcomponent><h2>TIMO FEUCHT: THE LEIPZIG HEAVY HITTER WHO DOESN’T WAIT FOR THE BELL</h2>In the opposite corner stands a man who has never needed the scorecards. Like his opponent, Leipzig’s Timo Feucht (8-2) was bullied as a child. He turned pro at nineteen and finished his first five opponents. The fifth of them, experienced kickboxer Daniel Dörrer, handed him the Imperium FC light heavyweight belt in 2016. A year later he fought for a title as far away as Curitiba, Brazil, where future UFC fighter Klidson Abreu submitted him with an armbar. Feucht claimed his second belt in 2019 in Zaragoza, Spain, choking out Felipe Nsue in the first round to become the Hombres de Honor champion.Three months later he made his OKTAGON debut. At OKTAGON 14 in Bratislava he stopped UFC veteran Jeremy Kimball by TKO just after the two-minute mark, which is still the seventh-fastest knockout among active light heavyweights in the promotion. Then the UFC came calling. He was set to debut in Abu Dhabi in July 2020 against Norway’s Kenneth Bergh, but shortly before the fight his dark past came to light and the UFC backed out of the deal. It would be almost seven years before he stepped into a cage again.He returned this April at OKTAGON’s first-ever event in Poland. In Szczecin he took on local fighter Michał Piwowarski at heavyweight and held his own on the feet, but in the second round he was dropped by a right cross and the Pole finished him with punches and elbows. Now Feucht, who trains at Spitfire Gym in Berlin, drops back down to light heavyweight, bringing the résumé of a pure finisher. Eight wins, eight finishes. Four opponents stopped with strikes, four forced to tap, and in ten professional fights he has never once seen the third round.<h2>FIFTEEN MINUTES VERSUS THE FIRST ROUND</h2>Both enter the cage off a loss, and both can switch off the lights with a single punch. But the way they win could hardly be more different. Polívka has gone the full fifteen minutes six times in OKTAGON and has stuffed 31 of 38 takedown attempts. Feucht has never given the judges anything to decide and has never experienced a third round in his entire career. If the fight goes past the ten-minute mark, the German will be in uncharted territory. The opening minutes, however, will test whether Polívka can withstand the pressure of a man who has finished five opponents inside the first round. For one, it is his first OKTAGON fight on home soil in more than four and a half years. For the other, it is a chance to prove that Szczecin was just a slip-up. Will Polívka complete his comeback in front of his home crowd, or will Feucht add the ninth finish of his career in Karlovy Vary?The yellow-and-black cage heads to Karlovy Vary for the third time in history! OKTAGON 95 lights up the Mattoni Arena on October 17 and, alongside the return of “Gameover”, delivers an all-Czech derby between Kincl and Humburger.

RESTART OR GAME OVER? POLÍVKA RETURNS AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF TO FACE FEUCHT

The final celebration of ten years of OKTAGON gave the judges surprisingly little work. On September 26, in front of nearly sixty thousand fans at Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park, seven out of ten fights ended in finishes, six of them in the very first round. Only three bouts reached the scorecards, and all of them ended in unanimous decisions. Take a look at how this historic stadium night looked through the eyes of the judges' scorecards.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/7680359d-4ff0-4327-8882-2db6cdc5d5ad/cs.1790599559127.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/a9749ec1-9d87-412a-9e5d-ee36afa1ca5e/cs.1790599566520.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>CHRISTIAN ECKERLIN VS. DAVID KOZMA</h2>The main event of the evening left no points on the scorecards, although it was just a moment away from completing the first round. David Kozma took the battle to the ground after one minute and held the King of Germany in a disadvantageous position for the entire round. Just a few seconds before the horn, Christian Eckerlin gave up his back, and the "Pink Panther" quickly locked in a rear naked choke. The opponent tapped out at 4:58 of the first round, leaving the cards clean as David Kozma celebrated an extraordinary triumph on hostile territory.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1406" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>MAX COGA VS. CHRISTIAN JUNGWIRTH</h2>The fight that earned the XTB Fight of the Night bonus culminated in a unanimous decision. Max Coga knocked Christian Jungwirth down in the opening round, and all three judges awarded him the first round. It was the same in the second five-minute period, as the home fighter increased the tempo and turned the fight into a brawl. Entering the third round, Coga held a clear 20:18 lead on all scorecards. However, the final round was not as clear-cut. "The Celt" pressed his opponent against the fence, and two of the three judges gave him the round, while the third still saw it for Coga. It wasn't enough for a turnaround, and Max Coga celebrated a unanimous decision victory.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1439" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>FREDERIC VOSGRÖNE VS. KARLOS VÉMOLA</h2>The return of the "Terminator" was clear on the scorecards. Karlos Vémola delivered a takedown right at the start, controlled almost the entire first round with ground and pound, and all three judges scored it in his favor. In the second round, the scenario repeated along the fence, where undefeated grappler Frederic Vosgröne eventually gave way under constant pressure. Vémola finished him at 4:50 of the second round, leaving the second line of the scorecards unwritten.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1478" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>FEDOR DURIC VS. MARC DIAKIESE</h2>The biggest test of his career ended for the local prospect with a clean decision victory without losing a single round. Marc Diakiese started with a quick takedown and threatened with an arm triangle, but Fedor Duric escaped the dangerous position, reversed it, and took the opening round on all three cards. The second round moved to the feet, where the local talent was more accurate and pushed his opponent against the fence. Again, all three judges agreed. The British veteran found no answer in the final five minutes either. Duric tied him up in the clinch, landed cleaner strikes, and added a takedown half a minute before the end. All three judges scored the fight 30:27, giving Duric the biggest win of his career.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1462" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>EDMON AVAGYAN VS. DOMINIC SCHOBER</h2>The debut of the popular influencer under Stand and Bang rules ended before the first round could even be scored. Edmon "Ringlife" Avagyan sent Dominic Schober to the canvas three times during the opening round. After the third knockdown, the referee stopped the fight. The TKO at 2:56 came just seconds before the end of the three-minute round.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1487" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>HUGO VACH VS. DENIZ ILBAY</h2>Here, the judges were given no room to write. After a cautious start, Deniz Ilbay found his rhythm and sent "Tarzan" to the floor for the first time. When the shaken opponent scrambled back to his feet, Ilbay finished him with a clean right hand. KO at 2:23 of the first round, leaving the scorecards completely clean.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1481" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>JAIME CORDERO VS. ROBERT PUKAČ</h2>A tense personal rivalry delivered fierce exchanges from the opening seconds, but the scorecards remained blank. Robert Pukač attempted a takedown after two minutes, but Jaime Cordero quickly got back to his feet and gradually took control. A minute before the end of the first round, he dropped the Slovak veteran with a precise strike, prompting the referee to step in. TKO at 3:55 of the first round.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1486" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>TAMERLAN DULATOV VS. NIKOLA JANKOVIĆ</h2>Nikola Janković pressed his opponent against the fence and secured a takedown, but that was exactly where Tamerlan Dulatov wanted to be. From the bottom position, he locked in a triangle choke and forced the tap out at 1:24 of the first round. The scorecards remained untouched as Dulatov maintains a perfect 6-0 professional record.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1506" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>RAUL LEMBERANSKIJ VS. ROMAN PAULUS</h2>The first decision of the Frankfurt night had a clear winner on the cards. The undefeated Raul Lemberanskij took the initiative right from the start. He was faster and more precise on the feet, sealing the opening round with a late takedown. All three judges agreed without hesitation. In the second round, the local prospect maintained a high pace, pushed the Slovak veteran against the fence, and gave him no chance to mount an offense. The third round brought no turnaround either. Lemberanskij took every round on all cards, celebrating a unanimous victory with scores of 30:27 across the board.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1485" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>MICHAEL OBODOZIE VS.

Michael Obodozie dropped Oskar Staszczak with a heavy hook and prematurely jumped onto the fence to celebrate. However, the referee had not stopped the fight yet, so the home fighter returned to action and finished the job. TKO at 1:04 of the first round.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1482" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent>Frankfurt wrote another chapter in OKTAGON history, but the story continues in just three weeks.

FRANKFURT THROUGH JUDGES' EYES: A NIGHT OF FIRST-ROUND FINISHES, ONLY 3 DECISIONS

Ten years of dreams, stories, and unforgettable cage wars culminated in a night that will go down in European MMA history. The fighters delivered exactly what the card promised: seven finishes out of ten fights, six of them in the very first round! David Kozma choked out the King of Germany, Christian Eckerlin, two seconds before the horn; the legendary "Terminator" Karlos Vémola dominated his grand return; and Max Coga alongside Christian Jungwirth unleashed a heart-pounding 330-strike brawl. All before nearly 60,000 fans at Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park celebrating OKTAGON's 10-year anniversary. Who else etched their name into the history of this magical stadium night?<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/94e093d5-a149-4e3f-965f-fe6fffae8745/cs.1790532730081.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/d3eb03bb-5c7b-441e-a161-481f889d1bb5/cs.1790532743386.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>CHRISTIAN ECKERLIN VS. DAVID KOZMA</h2>The highly anticipated clash between the King of Germany and OKTAGON's longest-reigning champion has its resolution. David Kozma waited for nothing and shot for a takedown after just one minute of the first round, successfully taking the fight to the canvas. The Czech phenomenon entered his kingdom and comfortably controlled the round. Christian Eckerlin searched in vain for a way out of the disadvantageous position back to his feet. Everything indicated the home fighter would survive the pressure, but with a few seconds left on the clock, he made a fatal error and gave up his back. "Pink Panther" punished this opportunity instantly and locked in a rear-naked choke, securing it just two seconds before the end of the opening round. David Kozma silenced the entire arena on hostile territory and celebrates a massive victory in front of 60,000 spectators!<oktfightcomponent fightid="1406"></oktfightcomponent><h2>MAX COGA VS. CHRISTIAN JUNGWIRTH</h2>The closely watched showdown started with cautious range-finding, but Max Coga soon took the initiative. About a minute and a half in, he landed a precise jab that sent Christian Jungwirth to the canvas. "The Kelt", however, managed to scramble back to his feet and began heavily leg-kicking his opponent's lead leg. In the second frame, Coga picked up the pace immensely, applying immense pressure and pouring on a barrage of strikes. The fight turned into an absolute firefight in the center of the cage as both warriors threw caution to the wind. They began exchanging salvos, combining for a staggering 330 strikes thrown! The insane battle reached a fever pitch in the final five minutes. Jungwirth pressed the local hero against the fence, but Coga countered dangerously with a uppercut before the end. After three rounds of this heart-stopping war, Max Coga secures the decision victory and celebrates an unforgettable win in front of a roaring crowd. The bout also earned a €10,000 XTB Fight of the Night bonus.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1439"></oktfightcomponent><h2>FREDERIC VOSGRÖNE VS. KARLOS VÉMOLA</h2>The legendary "Terminator" is back, celebrating his return to the cage in grand style! Karlos Vémola kept his foot on the gas from the opening seconds, giving his opponent virtually no room to breathe. Right at the start, he landed a successful takedown and brought the battle to the ground. From there, he effortlessly established a dominant position and controlled almost the entire first round with relentless ground-and-pound. The second round followed a similar script. Most of the action unfolded against the fence, where the Czech star pressed forward and rained down a barrage of strikes. Frederic Vosgröne resisted bravely for a long time, but the veteran's offensive pressure was unstoppable. In the closing seconds of round two, Vémola finally broke the undefeated grappler's resistance, capping a dominant performance with a spectacular TKO win that also earned him the Tipsport Performance of the Night bonus.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1478"></oktfightcomponent><h2>FEDOR DURIC VS. MARC DIAKIESE</h2>The biggest test yet for the local prospect. Marc Diakiese shot for a takedown almost immediately and took the fight to the ground. The experienced British veteran threatened with an arm-triangle choke, but Fedor Duric showed fantastic defense. He managed to reverse the dangerous position, landed on top, and even took his opponent's back multiple times, securing the opening round on the scorecards. The second stanza took place mostly on the feet, where the young fighter was sharper and pushed his opponent against the fence. The second round went to Duric as well. In the final five minutes, Diakiese defended takedowns well and tried to take control, but Duric smartly tied him up in the clinch and remained crisp in striking exchanges. With thirty seconds remaining, the home fighter secured a final takedown to seal his triumph. After a brilliant tactical performance, Fedor Duric celebrates a decision victory in front of his home crowd, earning the most valuable win of his career.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1462"></oktfightcomponent><h2>EDMON AVAGYAN VS. DOMINIC SCHOBER</h2>The highly anticipated debut of the popular influencer under Stand and Bang rules turned into a wild firefight from the opening seconds. Both fighters stormed out at a frantic pace, launching high-octane exchanges on the feet. However, Edmon "Ringlife" Avagyan quickly began taking control. Halfway through the opening round, he landed a combination that sent Dominic Schober into his first count. The Austrian veteran struggled to find an answer to his aggressive opponent and soon swallowed another heavy combination for a second knockdown. With thirty seconds left in the first round, the home powerhouse finished the job. He unleashed a final salvo of strikes, sending his hurt opponent into a third count, prompting the referee to stop the fight. Edmon Avagyan celebrates an incredible TKO victory. Stepping out from behind the microphone, he proved his high skill level and secured a fantastic win in front of an electrified crowd!<oktfightcomponent fightid="1487"></oktfightcomponent>PRELIMS<h2>HUGO VACH VS. DENIZ ILBAY</h2>A clash of old-school toughness against striking precision started with a cautious feeling-out process. Two minutes in, Deniz Ilbay found his rhythm and began finding his target with precision. The seasoned striker then delivered a brutal combination that dropped Hugo Vach to the canvas, making a quick finish seem inevitable. Although the hurt fighter managed to scramble back to his feet, it was only the beginning of the end. Ilbay immediately unleashed another devastating strike, putting "Tarzan" out cold with a clean KO. Following this fierce performance, the German striker secures an extremely valuable victory and celebrates his third finish in stadium events.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1481"></oktfightcomponent><h2>JAIME CORDERO VS. ROBERT PUKAČ</h2>The anticipated clash kicked off without hesitation. Both fighters gave no quarter from the opening seconds, engaging in fierce exchanges on the feet. About two minutes in, Slovak veteran Robert Pukač shot for a takedown, but Jaime Cordero displayed stellar defense and scrambled back to his feet instantly. The action returned to striking exchanges, with heavy hands flying from both sides. Pukač countered dangerously, but the German striker gradually took control of the fight. With one minute left in the opening frame, Cordero showcased his power. He unleashed a crisp punch that sent his dazed opponent to the canvas, forcing the referee to intervene. Jaime Cordero celebrates a huge TKO victory after a phenomenal performance, earning a valuable win in this heated personal feud.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1486"></oktfightcomponent><h2>TAMERLAN DULATOV VS. NIKOLA JANKOVIĆ</h2>The clash between two feared finishers kicked off without any feeling-out period. Nikola Janković closed the distance immediately, tying up his opponent in the clinch and pressing him against the fence. After about a minute of grappling, the Croatian fighter secured a successful takedown. However, Tamerlan Dulatov capitalized brilliantly on the seemingly disadvantageous position. From his back, he locked up a textbook arm-triangle choke and quickly forced the tap. Tamerlan Dulatov confirmed his status as a huge favorite in the cage, adding another quick finish to his record and continuing his professional run with a flawless 6-0 score.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1506"></oktfightcomponent><h2>RAUL LEMBERANSKIJ VS. ROMAN PAULUS</h2>The matchup between the undefeated home prospect and the experienced Slovak veteran started with striking on the outside, where Raul Lemberanskij soon took control and dictated the pace. The German fighter landed precise kicks and punches, and although Roman Paulus countered, he fell behind on points against his noticeably faster opponent. In the final seconds of the first round, the local fighter scored a takedown to lock up the round. In the second frame, the Frankfurt patriot maintained a high work rate, opening up with crisp combinations. Halfway through the round, he pressed his Slovak rival against the fence, maintaining full control and denying him any offensive rhythm. The final round brought no sudden turnarounds. Lemberanskij managed the fight with complete composure, utilizing his speed, activity, and precision to earn a well-deserved decision victory in front of a cheering crowd, adding another valuable win to his unbeaten record!<oktfightcomponent fightid="1485"></oktfightcomponent>FREE PRELIMS<h2>MICHAEL OBODOZIE VS. OSKAR STASZCZAK</h2>German prospect Michael Obodozie stormed into the cage with immense aggression, displaying his talent right away. From the opening bell, he landed clean strikes. Then came an unprecedented moment: after a heavy hook, the Polish fighter went down. Obodozie, convinced he had won, began celebrating prematurely by leaping onto the fence. However, the referee had not stopped the fight, forcing the home striker to hurry back into action. He gave Staszczak no room to recover, launching another relentless combination that forced the referee to step in. Michael Obodozie secures a fantastic TKO victory just one minute into the first round.<oktfightcomponent fightid="1482"></oktfightcomponent>The grand celebration of OKTAGON MMA's ten-year anniversary is successfully behind us, but the yellow-and-black juggernaut keeps rolling!

OKTAGON 94 RESULTS: TENTH ANNIVERSARY PACKED WITH FINISHES, KOZMA STUNS GERMANY

Nearly 60,000 fans, one football stadium, and a night no one will forget. The yellow-and-black colossus returns to where it rewrote MMA history two years ago, bringing a card packed with big returns, sharp challenges, and hungry talents. The "King of Germany" faces OKTAGON’s longest-reigning champion, a legend steps out of retirement, a Frankfurt idol returns to the cage after two years, and local prospects face the toughest tests of their careers. OKTAGON 94 on Saturday, September 26, at Deutsche Bank Park will culminate ten years of the organization’s celebrations. Check out the complete fight card fight by fight.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/cbee884e-f981-4739-9b9a-bfe610c353a1/cs.1790342012266.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/65df4351-7a41-4d0d-b932-6460dbe7c306/cs.1790342051286.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>CHRISTIAN ECKERLIN VS. DAVID KOZMA</h2>The main event of the evening and a national battle between Germany and the Czech Republic. The ruler of Frankfurt and the biggest star of German MMA, Christian Eckerlin (18-8), returns to the site of his greatest triumph. It was right here, in front of a record-breaking 59,148 fans, that he was crowned King of Germany. After losses to Pukač and Trušček, he went through the toughest period of his career, but in March he returned to winning ways with a victory over Kohout. Opposite him stands former six-time OKTAGON champion David "Pink Panther" Kozma (34-15), who ruled the welterweight division for a record 1,477 days. After victories over Wittner and Zawada, he called out Eckerlin himself, and in his milestone 50th professional fight, he will enter the cauldron of tens of thousands of German fans. Will Eckerlin defend his kingdom, or will Kozma silence all of Frankfurt?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1406"></oktfightcomponent><h2>MAX COGA VS. CHRISTIAN JUNGWIRTH</h2>Frankfurt's second king returns home. Max "Mad" Coga (27-8-1), former champion of NFC, EFC, and Superior FC with experience in PFL, KSW, or Brave, last fought at this very stadium. He finished Račić back then with a broken hand, but the injury sidelined him for two years and briefly looked like it might end his career. Now he returns after the longest layoff of his career, moving up two weight classes, and facing an opponent he called out himself. Christian "The Kelt" Jungwirth (16-9) defeated Pukač as well as UFC veteran Stolze, and fought a war for the title of King of Germany against Eckerlin at Deutsche Bank Park. After an April loss to Materla, he needs a win and stated he can handle "Eckerlin's little brother" too. He already has a rematch with Eckerlin on his mind. Will Coga hold up after two years away from the cage?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1439"></oktfightcomponent><h2>FREDERIC VOSGRÖNE VS. KARLOS VÉMOLA</h2>A legend against a new phenomenon. Frederic "Neanderthal" Vosgröne (5-0), BJJ black belt and No-Gi World Championship medalist, finished all five of his professional opponents by submission. He also became the first in history to submit Jorick Montagnac. After signing a new long-term contract, he called out Karlos "The Terminator" Vémola (38-9) in Cologne. The first Czech in the UFC and former OKTAGON champion in middleweight and light heavyweight hung up his gloves after winning the trilogy against Attila Végh, but he never turns down a challenge. After about fifteen months, he returns against a man who started his pro career 13 years after him. Can Vémola stop the undefeated grappler, or will the Neanderthal write the most famous chapter of his career?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1478"></oktfightcomponent><h2>FEDOR DURIC VS. MARC DIAKIESE</h2>The biggest test for Frankfurt’s talent. Twenty-two-year-old Fedor Duric (10-1) holds third place in the lightweight rankings and has never been finished in his career. The MMA Spirit product recently stopped Tomáš Mudroch via TKO in Ostrava, snapping his six-fight win streak. However, the first fight of his new contract brings a completely different level. Marc "Bonecrusher" Diakiese (18-8) is a former BAMMA champion with fifteen fights in the UFC and experience in Bellator and PFL, having shared the cage with names like Fiziev, Hooker, or Joel Álvarez. Returning after seventeen months, his goal is clear: knock on the door of a title fight in his debut. Will Duric turn his potential into a world-class scalp, or will the Brit teach him a harsh lesson?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1462"></oktfightcomponent><h2>EDMON AVAGYAN VS. DOMINIC SCHOBER</h2>From the microphone straight into the cage. Edmon "Ringlife" Avagyan (1-0 in pro boxing) is one of the most influential voices in the German combat sports scene, runs his own promotion, and spent years analyzing other fighters' bouts on his channel. In May, he won his professional boxing debut in Mannheim by TKO and asked for a real professional for his OKTAGON debut. He got Dominic "The Dom" Schober (16-15), an Austrian veteran who has fought across fourteen organizations and finished twelve of his wins in the first round. Christian Jungwirth's training partner is still searching for his first victory in OKTAGON. The fight will take place under Stand &amp; Bang rules: small gloves only, boxing and elbows, no kicks, takedowns, or ground fighting. Can the influencer handle his baptism by fire, or will the Austrian send him back behind the microphone?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1487"></oktfightcomponent>PRELIMS<h2>HUGO VACH VS. DENIZ ILBAY</h2>A clash of two German strikers in the featherweight division. Hugo "German Tarzan" Vach (8-1) has a clean 3-0 record in OKTAGON and rides a five-fight win streak, most recently knocking out Teo Smith in the first round in Hannover. The Fightschool Hannover fighter honed his skills alongside Alexander Volkanovski at City Kickboxing in New Zealand. Facing him is Deniz "El Pistolero" Ilbay (9-3), a former boxing champion who finished Lengál, Novák, Tripšanský, and Deiga-Scheck in OKTAGON. The duel also has a personal element: Vach helped Max Holzer prepare for his fight against Ilbay, where Ilbay lost, and Pistolero now has a chance to settle scores with another fighter from the Hannover stable. Will Vach pass the biggest test of his career, or will Ilbay unholster his gun once again?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1481"></oktfightcomponent><h2>JAIME CORDERO VS. ROBERT PUKAČ</h2>A challenge that set social media on fire. Robert "Prince of Bratislava" Pukač (21-14-1) dominantly outpointed the undefeated Brian Manning in Bratislava in June and immediately called out Jaime Cordero (10-2). The Slovak veteran holds victories over both main event fighters, Kozma and Eckerlin, and enters Frankfurt with three times as many pro fights as his opponent. However, German OKTAGON Challenge alumnus Cordero has been undefeated since 2023, riding a five-fight winning streak and standing as one of the division's biggest KO artists. He needed just 22 seconds and a high kick against Török, and finished Krištofič in the first round in his last outing. The winner solidifies their place in the middleweight top ten. Will Pukač silence the German audience once again, or will the Prince lay down before Cordero?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1486"></oktfightcomponent><h2>TAMERLAN DULATOV VS. NIKOLA JANKOVIĆ</h2>Second attempt. This matchup was originally scheduled for July in Cologne, but Tamerlan "Most Wanted" Dulatov (5-0) had to pull out on fight day due to health issues. The brother of UFC fighter Islam Dulatov won all five of his professional fights in the first round and has never seen a second round. In OKTAGON, he also holds the record for the fastest submission in organization history—a guillotine choke in 16 seconds. Nikola Janković (9-2), however, is not going to Frankfurt to lose. The 21-year-old Croatian champion finished all nine of his wins before the distance, with only one extending past the first round. Which finisher will strike first?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1506"></oktfightcomponent><h2>RAUL LEMBERANSKIJ VS. ROMAN PAULUS</h2>An undefeated local prospect against one of the bantamweight division's most experienced fighters. Raul Lemberanskij (9-0) from Frankfurt's MMA Spirit first attended OKTAGON as a spectator. Now he enters his city's stadium as the number four ranked bantamweight. Most recently in Hamburg, he turned the fight around against the undefeated Ali Gündüz to claim his ninth straight win. However, Roman Paulus (13-6) requested this fight. The winner of the fifth season of OKTAGON Challenge handed Harun Kurt his first career loss in August at Štvanice and called out Lemberanskij right in the cage. The 26-year-old Slovak already has 19 professional fights under his belt and is among the rare fighters to win across three different divisions in OKTAGON. Will Lemberanskij secure his tenth victory, or will Paulus hand him his first defeat?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1485"></oktfightcomponent>FREE PRELIMS<h2>MICHAEL OBODOZIE VS. OSKAR STASZCZAK</h2>The Frankfurt night kicks off with a clash of two undefeated welterweights. Michael Obodozie (1-0) made history as the first-ever amateur in the OKTAGON cage, knocking out his opponent in 19 seconds. His professional debut in Hamburg finished in 1:53, meaning he has spent a total of just 2 minutes and 12 seconds in the cage. Now, his second pro fight takes place in a stadium before tens of thousands. Standing opposite him is Oskar Staszczak (5-0), one of Poland's most exciting prospects, managed by former UFC champion Joanna Jędrzejczyk. A Muay Thai World Championship medalist, he finished four of his five opponents before the bell and outpointed Adam Havran in his OKTAGON debut in February. Will Obodozie's lightning ride continue, or will the Pole drag him into a deep war?<oktfightcomponent fightid="1482"></oktfightcomponent>The yellow-and-black colossus returns to where it rewrote MMA history.

DECIDE ON THE FIGHT OF THE NIGHT! OKTAGON 94 BRINGS THE XTB FIGHT OF THE NIGHT BONUS

Opponents who fed lions together. A nightclub owner living above the dance floor, or a YouTuber who comments on other people's fights. OKTAGON's 10th anniversary celebrations will culminate on September 26 at Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park, where the organization broke the world record for MMA attendance two years ago. Dive into the interesting facts hidden behind the 10th anniversary fight card.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/94f344fd-1fc7-41ea-8d4c-f2126f224e0b/cs.1790163386571.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/0c7c5d28-99cd-4fd1-876f-5fdedc04567c/cs.1790163391783.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>FOOTBALL BOOTS AND THE JUBILEE FIFTIETH</h2>Hometown Christian Eckerlin (18-8) wore football boots before gloves. He went through the youth academy of Eintracht Frankfurt, the very club in whose stadium he will now enter the cage. He eventually swapped football for MMA, in which he has accumulated 27 fights since his professional debut. Yet he still returned to the football pitch. His grappling know-how was later requested by Brighton of the English Premier League. He advised footballers on how not to get lost in physical battles in the penalty box. In the cage, he won five times in 90 seconds or less and has already written history in Frankfurt once. His victory over Denilson Neves at OKTAGON 33 was overturned by the German commission due to a first-round foul into the very first No Contest in OKTAGON history.Facing the "King of Germany" will be David "Pink Panther" Kozma (34-15), for whom Frankfurt won't be just another away trip. He faces his jubilee 50th professional fight. The longest-reigning champion in OKTAGON history, who held the welterweight belt for 1,477 days, is also the organization's record holder for takedowns (56). He has carried the nickname since childhood, when he liked wearing pink. He has stayed faithful to it to this day, dyeing his head pink for fights and entering in pink shorts.Christian "Kelt" Jungwirth (16-9) also has a football background. The fighter from Stuttgart used to be a promising footballer, playing as a utility player and stepping into goal when needed. He got into combat sports by chance, through a gym where boxing took place on Sundays. He knows Deutsche Bank Park very well. He featured there in the main event right against Eckerlin in front of a record 59,148 spectators. Now he returns to the stadium and once again faces a local Frankfurt star. This time, Max Coga stands in his way. Fans love Jungwirth for unforgettable fights. His war with Bojan Veličković won Fight of the Year 2023, and his battle with Stolz earned Comeback of the Year 2025. His legendary fight with Miroslav Brož is also worth mentioning.<h2>DOUBLE LIVES: NIGHTCLUB, RUNWAY, AND MICROPHONE</h2>Max "Mad Max" Coga (27-8-1) compares himself to Batman. By day he trains, after dark he runs the Pik Dame nightclub in Frankfurt's Bahnhofsviertel district, founded by his grandfather in 1959. And he lives directly above it. "Anyone looking for privacy here is in the wrong place," he says with a smile. In 36 professional fights, no one has ever forced him to tap out.Tamerlan Dulatov (5-0) made his mark on the fashion runways of luxury brands, just like his brothers. One of them, Islam, now fights in the UFC. But in the cage, Tamerlan plays no poses. His 16-second guillotine is the fastest submission in OKTAGON history. However, his opponent Nikola Janković (9-2) can be even faster, achieving his shortest win in 12 seconds.Edmon "Ringlife" Avagyan (1-0 in boxing) guarded nightclub doors for years, just as Vémola once did in London's Tottenham. Then he started a YouTube channel that grew into Germany's most famous combat sports brand. Today he owns a boxing and bare-knuckle promotion company. But in Frankfurt, he drops the microphone and puts on the gloves. Under Stand &amp; Bang rules, he faces former strongman Dominic Schober (16-15), who competed in fourteen organizations during his career.<h2>FROM LIONS TO THE CAGE</h2>Karlos "Terminator" Vémola (38-9) and Frederic "Neanderthal" Vosgröne (5-0) were training together and feeding lions in Vémoland until recently. Now they meet in the cage, bringing a massive army with them. On Instagram, they are followed by nearly 1.1 million people combined. Vosgröne had fewer than ten thousand followers before joining OKTAGON; his viral debut catapulted him to over 650,000. The nickname is no coincidence. He lives in Mettmann, a few kilometers from the Neandertal valley where the first Neanderthal remains were found. But a friend came up with it mainly because of his appearance. His massive build and strong features fit so well that "Neanderthal" likes to make fun of it himself.Vémola started competing professionally thirteen years earlier and has 47 fights behind him, Vosgröne five. But Vosgröne finished all five by submission and took home the Performance of the Night bonus in his very first appearance in the organization. Terminator, on the other hand, holds the fastest finish in the organization's history, stopping Pavol Langer by KO in seven seconds. Furthermore, he is the only one in OKTAGON to win via north-south choke.<h2>YOU HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT THIS YET</h2><ul><li>Slovak veteran Robo Pukač has defeated both headliners, Eckerlin and Kozma, in the past.</li><li>Polish talent Oskar Staszczak (5-0) is a passionate chess player, and his career is managed by former UFC champion Joanna Jędrzejczyk.</li><li>Undefeated Raul Lemberanskij (9-0) first appeared at OKTAGON at event number 36.

FUNFACTS FROM FRANKFURT: BATMAN FROM A NIGHTCLUB, CHESS PLAYER, AND FASTEST SUBMISSION

As a young boy, he fled war across the burning Caucasus with his brothers. A few years later, he stood on catwalks next to world-renowned models, while in the cage sending his opponents to the ground. Tamerlan "Most Wanted" Dulatov returns to the cage on September 26 at OKTAGON 94 in Frankfurt. Facing him will be Croatian finisher Nikola Janković, who will try to be the first to stop a man who has not yet allowed any opponent to take a fight into the second round. Read how a boy fleeing war became a model and an undefeated fighter.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/9b8fe25d-db8e-4e50-a296-edd8d789671b/cs.1790081406707.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/d963398b-590e-4d4f-a38b-72afc6647b79/cs.1790081412531.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>THE BOY WHO FLED WAR</h2>The path that brought Dulatov into the cage began in a harsh environment. He was born in Urus-Martan, Chechnya, in 2000, in the middle of the Second Chechen War. Tamerlan repeatedly moved with his parents and three brothers to escape the fighting. There was no time or peace for regular schooling. Instead of sitting at desks, the boys spent their days outside, working out with bodyweight exercises, and earning extra money by unloading trucks. In December 2007, when Tamerlan was only seven years old, the family left the war-torn Caucasus and found refuge in Düsseldorf. The new country was not welcoming at first. "It was a tough start. We arrived as refugees," Dulatov recalls today. Without knowing the language and carrying the stigma of being an immigrant, the brothers had to fight for their place on the streets, and not always legally. "I was in prison many times because of street fights. And that's why it took me so long to turn professional," he admits openly today. He connects it with his Chechen upbringing: "We grew up fighting, everyone taught us to be a man. A man must know how to fight, a man must protect his family." Today, his relationship with his new home is completely different. "Today I meet Germans on the street and they tell me: you make us happy, you bring honor to our country," he adds proudly.<h2>THE LONG ROAD TO THE PROFESSIONAL CAGE</h2>Before he first encountered MMA, Dulatov went through a solid school of combat sports. He started with boxing, competing in over fifteen amateur bouts. Gradually, he added kickboxing. After years in the ring, he transitioned to MMA, and his very first amateur fight indicated that he possessed more than just heavy hands. In September 2018 at Integra FC 10, he defeated Jan Roth by choke in the second round, showing that despite his striking roots, he knew how to finish a fight on the ground. He turned professional five years later, in October 2023, when at Sparta CF 3 he knocked down Dimitrije Ninić via TKO in the first round. It is precisely the combination of boxing, kickboxing, and grappling experience that makes him such a dangerous fighter today. Combat sports were not his solo pursuit. His three brothers, Djibril, Sulumbek, and Islam (who now fights in the UFC), share the same passion.<h2>IN OKTAGON HE DOES NOT KNOW SECOND ROUNDS</h2>Under the yellow-and-black flag, Dulatov fully confirmed that he is among the organization's most dangerous finishers. His record speaks clearly. Five professional fights, five wins, all before the distance, and he has never seen a second round. His debut at OKTAGON 66 in Düsseldorf ended with a guillotine choke in 16 seconds, making him the holder of the fastest submission win in the organization. A few months later at OKTAGON 78, he sent Brazilian Henrique Melo to the ground via TKO in just 52 seconds. At OKTAGON 82, he broke the arm of previously undefeated Serb Stefan Končar with an armbar. For that performance, he earned his BJJ brown belt from his coaches. He trains at Düsseldorf's Triple One Gym, where he regularly meets his brother Islam. Last year, Tamerlan also included training with British star Michael "Venom" Page in his preparation.<h2>FOUR BROTHERS, TWO WORLDS</h2>The cage was not the only stage where the Dulatov brothers gained fame. The eldest brother Djibril was approached by a casting agency while shopping in Düsseldorf, and that chance encounter quickly turned into a campaign for the luxury brand Lanvin. Following their older brother into the fashion world came Sulumbek, Islam, and Tamerlan. Islam eventually became the main face of Versace, and British Vogue named him one of the world's top ten most sought-after male models in 2018, while the rest of the family posed for brands such as Armani, Gucci, or Diesel. The four brothers also do business together outside the cage and fashion runways. In Düsseldorf, they own a barbershop and bar, and would like to open their own gym where children from immigrant families could train for free, just as they once were.<h2>A FIGHT THAT ALREADY FAILED TO HAPPEN ONCE</h2>Now another big test awaits Tamerlan in Frankfurt in the form of a fighter who knows how to finish fights just as fast as he does. Twenty-one-year-old Croat Nikola Janković (9-2) arrives in Frankfurt with a reputation as a dangerous finisher. Six of his wins came via KO/TKO, three via submission, and the fastest of them took just twelve seconds. Two fighters who are not used to relying on judges will meet in the cage. He was originally scheduled to face Janković back in July at OKTAGON 91 in Cologne, but health issues stopped him just hours before the start and the fight was canceled. Now the postponed battle is finally happening. Will Janković be the first to stop the man who has not let anyone past the first round in his professional career?OKTAGON 94 will turn Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park into the final stop of the yellow-and-black colossus's tenth anniversary on September 26. Alongside the main event between Christian Eckerlin and David Kozma or the return of Karlos Vémola, Tamerlan Dulatov will be one of the men aiming to make the historic night his own.

FROM ESCAPING A WAR ZONE TO RUNWAY AND CAGE: THE STORY OF TAMERLAN DULATOV

Born in Armenia, he went through a tough school of life after moving to Germany. As a child, he experienced bullying. He left the education system after ninth grade and struggled to find his path. He tried an apprenticeship as a car salesman, but realized after a single day that this was not his destiny. He started earning a living as a nightclub bouncer. From that position, he worked his way up to becoming Germany's most prominent combat sports content creator. The turning point in his life came in October 2018 when he created a YouTube channel named RINGLIFE in his bedroom. He began filming fight analyses, reactions, and interviews, gradually building a massive fanbase. Today, his YouTube channel is followed by an impressive 619 thousand subscribers, and his videos have accumulated over 291 million views.As part of his content creation, he regularly trains with elite fighters. His RINGLIFE brand also gave birth to its own event series, the Ringlife Combat Series. However, Avagyan didn't want to remain just a man behind the camera. That is why in May this year, he made his first professional boxing match. In front of thirteen thousand spectators, he stopped experienced Czech fighter Patrik Fiala with a hard TKO in the third round. Now, the 34-year-old fighter faces a top-level challenge in the form of his debut under the yellow-and-black banner at the football stadium in Frankfurt. Here, he intends to prove once and for all that he is much more than just a well-spoken face from the screen.<h2>DOMINIC "THE DOM" SCHOBER: AUSTRIAN TANK WHO KNOWS NO RETREAT</h2>On the other side of the cage will stand dangerous Dominic Schober (16 - 15), a 35-year-old tough guy from Vienna's GYM 23 and training partner of Christian Jungwirth. The former elite strongman dove into professional MMA back in 2011. Over that time, he has accumulated an impressive 31 battles and performed in a total of 14 promotions. "The Dom" lives by a simple rule in battle: finish or be finished. Indeed, 14 of his 16 career victories were secured inside the distance, with 12 of his opponents finished in the very first round.However, on the yellow-and-black stage, he had to walk through fire and recorded three defeats here. In March 2024 at OKTAGON 55, he fell on points to Jaime Cordero, and in September of the same year, he came up short against Cihad Akipa. His hardest moment came last February in Třinec at OKTAGON 67, where he suffered a hard first-round TKO from Daniel Ligocký. Although his results in OKTAGON haven't been favorable so far, he brings massive confidence to Frankfurt.This May on home soil in Vienna, he captured the XCC middleweight championship belt, stopping British contender Jason Radcliffe via TKO in just ninety seconds. His qualities are further highlighted by the fact that famous UFC champion Leon Edwards chose him as a training partner for his preparation ahead of his highly watched title defense against Kamaru Usman. We all know very well how that historic fight ultimately turned out. The Austrian tough guy knows exactly what pressure at the absolute highest world level feels like.<h2>BOXING SPEED VS AUSTRIAN TOUGHNESS</h2>This duel will take place under attractive Stand &amp; Bang rules in the 80 kg weight class. That means one thing: no takedowns, no ground fighting, pure striking in small gloves. For Avagyan, this format is tailor-made. As an excellent boxer, he doesn't have to worry at all about the significantly more experienced Austrian taking him down. However, Schober possesses immense physical strength and 15 years of experience from tough battles. Avagyan's lightning-fast boxing speed and precision will clash with the devastating power and relentless durability of the Viennese veteran. Will the popular influencer withstand the pressure of the electric crowd and steamroll the seasoned matador, or will the Austrian slugger teach him a hard lesson and ruin a carefully built story?A grand celebration of 10 years of the yellow-and-black colossus will deliver an unforgettable show and a historic milestone that will rewrite history. OKTAGON 94 will light up Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park on September 26, and you can't miss it. Tickets are selling fast, so don't wait and join us!

10 DAYS TO GO! OKTAGON'S 10-YEAR CELEBRATION CULMINATES IN FRANKFURT

The OKTAGON 93 tournament kept the judges busy in only four out of twelve fights. On September 12, Brno's Winning Group Arena witnessed a night full of shocking turnarounds and devastating finishes, and even the few fights that went to the scorecards brought two close split decisions. Take a look at how the Brno night unfolded through the scorecards.<oktresponsiveimagecomponent url="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/974cf5f4-7307-4ba2-b6a0-3b4e26c2c7dc/cs.1789387809508.png" mobileurl="https://assets.oktagonmma.com/COMMON_IMAGE/ccbefb5b-e536-4ea8-b687-5d6149eff445/cs.1789387815794.png" link="" croppedcorners="true" enablecornersmobile="false" smallercorners="false"></oktresponsiveimagecomponent><h2>RADEK ROUŠAL VS. JONAS MÅGÅRD</h2>The heated main event of the Brno evening showed clear dominance by the Danish phenomenon. Jonas Mågård demonstrated immense ground strength, comfortably winning the first two rounds on all three judges' scorecards (20:18). The third round did not reach the scorecards. Mågård delivered another takedown, locked in a textbook guillotine choke, and forced the local striker to tap out at 0:35.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1460" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>ANDREJ KALAŠNIK VS. KENNEDY RAYOMBA</h2>The biggest underdog on the fight card delivered a massive upset that was reflected crystal clear on the scorecards. Although Andrej Kalašnik secured the first five minutes on all three judges' cards thanks to his pressure, the German warrior took control from the second round onwards. Kennedy Rayomba took the fight to the ground and dictated the pace until the end. All three judges scored the bout identically 29:28 for Rayomba, who takes home a valuable unanimous decision victory from Brno.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1434" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>VLADIMÍR LENGÁL VS. MAURICE ADORF</h2>Here, the judges had no time to write anything down. Brno patriot Vlado Lengál wasted no time in front of the roaring crowd, unleashed a devastating strike, and sent Maurice Adorf unconscious to the canvas. Clean scorecards and a lightning knockout at 3:02 of the first round.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1461" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>JOSEF HÁLA VS. RADOVAN ÚŠKRT</h2>A wild stand-up brawl under Stand and Bang rules promised a finish, and that is precisely what it delivered. The Slovak striker managed to win the opening round on two judges' cards with precise strikes. However, an illegal spinning attack interfered in the second round, resulting in a point deduction for Úškrt. But the scorecards were no longer needed. Hála targeted his strikes to the body, sent his shaken opponent to the canvas three times for knockdowns, and celebrated a TKO victory in the second round at 3:00.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1459" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>DANIEL LIGOCKI VS. BRAJAN PRZYSIWEK</h2>Home fighter Daniel Ligocki safely secured the first round on all three judges' cards thanks to higher accuracy in clinches and stand-up. In the second five minutes, he stepped on the gas, set a devastating pace, and sent his Polish opponent down with a clean knee. A spectacular KO at 3:06 marked an early end.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1488" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>VOJTĚCH GARBA VS. ROBERT LAU</h2>The light heavyweight battle started better for the "Silesian Knight", who secured the first round on all three judges' cards with a takedown and ground control. In the second round, however, the German finisher entered with a clear goal and quickly shocked the whole arena. After less than a minute, he unleashed a crushing strike that sent Garba down, earning a highly valuable KO victory.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1484" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>JAKUB DOHNAL VS. VOJTO BARBORÍK</h2>The anticipated clash of elite ground fighters surprisingly turned into an attractive stand-up exchange. Jakub Dohnal, who posed a dangerous threat in stand-up, took the opening round on two judges' scorecards. Then, in the 11th second of the second round, came the shocker. Dohnal's clean spinning head kick found its target, and a phenomenal KO left no room for doubt.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1464" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>TOMÁŠ CIGÁNIK VS. BERKAN BADUR</h2>One of two split decisions of the night and an extremely tense fight full of twists. The first round went to the German fighter on all three judges' scorecards. In the second round, the tables turned as the Slovak talent leveled the field and won the second five minutes on all cards. A key moment occurred near the end when Badur delivered an illegal knee and was penalized with a two-point deduction. That moment proved decisive. Two judges ultimately awarded the victory to Cigánik, while the third saw Badur winning by one point. A tight and immensely valuable victory goes to Slovakia.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1513" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>ROBIN FOŠUM VS. DUSTIN RABIEGA</h2>The opening round offered a great performance by the German debutant, who was faster and deservedly took the first round on two of the three scorecards. However, Fošum switched to a higher gear in the second round, bided his time, and finished the fight with a clean hook to the chin. A triumphant return after years sealed by a hard KO at 1:56.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1507" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>ŠIMON BRUKNAR VS. NATHAN HAYWOOD</h2>The clash of young talents had a clear ruler from the first second. Šimon Bruknar delivered a successful knockdown as well as ground work from dominant positions. All three judges scored his dominance identically across all three rounds, with one judge scoring the second round a decisive 10:8. A unanimous decision victory and his first win in yellow-black colors.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1510" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>NIAMH KINEHAN VS. ALANA COOK</h2>Undefeated British striker Niamh Kinehan lost the first five minutes on all three scorecards when her Canadian opponent pushed her against the cage. In the second round, however, Kinehan unleashed her game and after just 48 seconds connected with a precise left hook. A clear KO gave the judges no chance to fill out their scorecards.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1479" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent><h2>ALI GÜNDÜZ VS. DÁVID DÁNIEL KOMÁR</h2>The opening fight of the gala event set the bar very high and ended in the night's first close split decision. The judges disagreed right from the start. Two out of three judges gave the first round to Dávid Dániel Komár, who troubled his opponent with accurate kicks, while the third judge saw it for Ali Gündüz. The second round saw the same 2:1 split in favor of Komár. After two rounds, two judges had the fight tied at 19:19, while the third had Komár leading by two points. The final round was all the more crucial, which Ali Gündüz dominated unanimously thanks to ground control. That was enough for a close 29:28 victory on two scorecards, while the third judge scored it by the same margin for Komár. Gündüz thus celebrates a hard-fought split decision victory.<oktscorecardfightcomponent fightid="1500" smallerversion="true"></oktscorecardfightcomponent>The yellow-and-black colossus doesn't stop after Brno!
