South Korea-based ROAD Fighting Championship held its 11th event this past weekend at the Olympic Hall situated in Seoul. The MMA action throughout the night kept fans out of their seats as the fighters delivered some tremendous bouts.
In the featured attraction of the evening, Nam Yui Chul (16 -4 -1) defeated Kume Takasuke (15-2-4) to become the new ROAD FC Lightweight Champion. The bout was originally declared a draw, and a 4th round was needed to decide upon a winner. Eventually, it was Yui Chul who had done enough to get his hands raised.
Former DREAM title holder Joachim Hansen (23-11-1) had a successful promotional debut following his Arm-Triangle Choke submission victory over Doo Won Seo (9-7). ‘Hellboy’ is now 4-1 in his past 5 outings.
Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou (14-10) vs. Seung Bae Whi (7-4) also delivered some fireworks with both fighters putting on a stand-up clinic. It was Sokoudjou, however, who managed to garner a Decision victory.
