Galina Maltseva vs. Ekaterina Demina
An MMA World newbie bout in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia, between Galina Maltseva and Ekaterina Demina was a horror present early within the third spherical as Demina made the deadly mistake of trying to submit together with her arm whereas being taken down.
Severely, you don’t even want to observe this clip to know what occurred.
Immediate snap, immediate ache, immediate stoppage. Immediate remorse.
Transferring on.
Wael Kambouche vs. Axel Sormain
Wael Kambouche simply received the fast KO within the 100% Struggle Featherweight event semi-final to maneuver onto the ultimate in January the place he’ll face 7-1 Wassim Chaine.

Ah, that’s a lot better. A healthful knockout punch and a few healthful follow-up strikes.
Featherweight Wael Kambouche continues to shine on the newbie scene, protecting his undefeated document and 100% end charge intact. His fingers have been simply manner too quick for Axel Sormain, and as soon as he had Sormain at risk, he didn’t hesitate to ground-and-pound him out.

Ginji Arai vs. Yuichi Nakamura
Kambouche has some competitors for probably the most exact knockout of the week as Ginji Arai timed this left hand fantastically to flatten Yuichi Nakamura at a DEEP occasion in Tokyo.
That’s simply beautiful understanding of vary, rhythm, and execution. Huge second for the 20-year-old.
Szymon Herrmann vs. Kamil Korzeniewski
Not so exact however no much less efficient was Szymon Herrmann, who missed actually each a part of this combo aside from the one which mattered.
From Babilon MMA 49:
Correction, Hermann landed a few stable punches, then caught nothing however air with three windmilling strikes, after which fired off a head kick that was proper on the cash. Similar to on-line relationship, it’s a numbers sport.
Marko Bojkovic vs. Sahil Siraj
A philosophical query: What occurs when a fighter nicknamed “The Cranium Crusher” doesn’t wish to crush skulls?
That is the dilemma that performed out at Struggle Nation Championship 20 in Zagreb, Croatia, the place Marko Bojkovic (he of the menacing nom de guerre) appeared to have sealed a win with a popping left hand.
Marko Bojković (8-0) acaba de destrozar al sueco Sahil Siraj (9-4) en poco más de un minuto de combate, ya son 7 finalizaciones y 5 de ellas en el primer asalto, este chico es un verdadero problema #FNC20 pic.twitter.com/4wifkqMTM5

Sadly for Bojkovic and opponent Sahil Siraj, referee Franko Kliman didn’t really feel that Siraj going utterly limp and displaying zero indicators of clever protection was sufficient to name the competition. And so the skull-crushing commenced.
Bojkovic didn’t appear all that torn up about it as he celebrated with a jaunty jig, however he most likely would have been blissful to not have delivered these further punches. Terrible officiating.
Alexandre Williams vs. Miguel Angel Prado
At Livid FC 5 (free replay accessible on YouTube), Alexandre Williams did his finest Jon Jones vs. Lyoto Machida impression with this suffocating guillotine choke.
That’s out chilly out chilly.
Goga Kistauri vs. Sane Nithiya
In Graz, Austria, a combat between Goga Kistauri and Sane Nithiya lasted simply 25 seconds…
… as a result of an inSANE knockout punch by Kistauri.
Hehehehehehehehehe… eh.

Beybulat Isaev vs. Damir Russinov
Over in Almaty, Kazakhstan, Beybulat Isaev reminded Damir Russinov that they’re mixing the martial arts up in right here, not simply boxing.
Isaev seems amused by Russinov’s sparring strikes after which he decides to finish him with a kick upside the top.
Free full fights from Naiza FC can be found on their YouTube channel.
Vambert Robby vs. Roberto Oliveira
For a man who simply felt his soul briefly depart his physique, Roberto Oliveira truly regarded fairly chill afterwards.
At Soldado Fight 4 in Brasilia, Brazil, Vambert Robby completely clobbered Roberto Oliveira with a proper hand, inflicting Oliveira’s head to THUD in opposition to the mat. A minimum of Oliveira appeared to instantly regain consciousness, however his entire mind state of affairs can’t have been good there. Let’s hope he will get loads of relaxation and restoration.
Nildo Nascimento vs. Fernando Laurenco
Hopping over to Sao Paulo, Nildo Nascimento grew to become Standout Combating Event’s champ-champ with this unbelievable knockout of Fernando Laurenco.
Nascimento was the one coming as much as 135 kilos right here—I imply, simply take a look at that dimension distinction—and his pace proved to be the distinction as he stepped in with a beautiful left hook that despatched Laurenco off of his toes. And it was an enormous drop. The mat most likely did half the work there.
Even when Nascimento has to share his titles with an inanimate object, his double champion standing stands. Not a foul achievement for the 35-year-old Brazilian.
