This is a fascinating battle of generations and styles, where Parnasse’s dynamic striking and agility meet Held’s elite grappling and veteran composure in a five-round war for the 155-pound throne.
Heavyweight Collision: Kickboxing Royalty vs. MMA Experience
In the co-main event, the Heavyweight (265 lbs) division takes center stage as Arkadiusz Wrzosek meets the seasoned Szymon Bajor. Wrzosek, a superstar in the kickboxing world known for his incredible height and devastating power, continues his transition into MMA against a man who has fought the best the sport has to offer. Bajor brings a wealth of experience and a well-rounded skillset that will serve as the ultimate litmus test for Wrzosek’s championship aspirations. In a division where one strike can end the night, this clash of Polish heavyweights is guaranteed to provide high-tension drama from the moment the bell rings.
Championship Pedigree and Rising Stars
The main card is further bolstered by the return of former light heavyweight champion Ibragim Chuzhigaev, who faces the dangerous Maciej Różański in a 212-pound catchweight battle. Chuzhigaev’s explosive style and championship experience make him a threat to anyone in the world, while Różański looks to use his grappling and toughness to pull off a massive upset in front of his home crowd.
