Featherweight prospect Makwan Amirkhani has been a fan favorite since making his debut in early 2015. The man known as “Mr. Finland” did the majority of his training in Sweden at Allstar Training Center along with the likes of Alexander Gustafsson and Ilir Latifi, however there was a rotten apple in the bunch, which forced Amirkhani to leave.

Makwan Amirkhani leaves Allstars, searches for new gym

The 27-year-old is now in search for a new gym — destination unknown.

Amirkhani posted the following on his official Facebook page.

So many media have been asking why i left from Allstars and why i left from Sweden. Thing is that somebody broke my trust and when somebody do that to me its hard to me forgive that. I fuckin miss the gym because there is 99% good people. But hey they say “there is bad apples in every basket”. I will miss many people from that gym! Im not the kind person who goes around and talk shit, so i dont want to say anything bad about anyone. To me best choice was that i just leave. They say somebody took my girlfriend, i say that i never had a girlfriend. So its kind of hard to do that, Hehe. I still have coach Alan ‘Finfou’ Nascimento with me and many other fighters that i Will never forget. But people lets be honest with this, small shit compare to what is happening right now all around the world. So lets not make a big deal out of this. Life goes on!

PS. Gyms around the world, is there a place for Mr.Finland?!?

Niklas stop using snus ????????

Amirkhani (12-2) was signed to the UFC and made his debut in January 2015. He has gone 2-0 under the banner, with victories over Andy Ogle and Masio Fullen. Mr. Finland has spent a total of 1:49 inside the Octagon, finishing both guys and earning Performance of the Night in his debut.
