On December 7, the Nordic Region's largest MMA gala is back. Superior Challenge 20 takes place in the Victoria Hall in Älvsjö. Purchased gala ticket also gives free admission to the Fitness Festival and the Martial Arts Festival at the Stockholm Fair throughout Saturday.
The gal offers a mix of experienced veterans, hot stars and promising future names. Three reigning champions are ready for tonight's final matches, the last being Botkirkka's pride - former UFC fighter Nico Musoke - who is expected to defend his middleweight belt in the main event.
The Swedish PRIDE and UFC veteran, as well as welterweight title holder, David “Buster” Bielkheden, steps into the cage in one of the evening's shared main attractions. In addition, we also see a heavyweight title fight where Brazilian Fernando Rodrigues Jr. defends the belt against Denmark's Nick Barnø.
Several of the hottest MMA talents in Sweden and the Nordic countries
Furthermore, many of the most interesting star shots we have in the Nordic countries are ready for the gala. On the motherboard we see two Norwegian 93-kilos fighters in the form of Kenneth Bergh and Marthin Hamlet, one of Sweden's foremost featherweights in the form of Michel Ersoy and a well-known Swedish meeting between two rivals where Gävle's Adam Westlund settles against Robin "Pretty Boy" Roos from Västerås .
The undercard is also packed with names such as the undefeated super talent Bartosz "The Destroyer" Wojcikiewicz and Bellator fighter Malin "The Herminator" Hermansson among others.
Even the hard-hitting talent Tobias Harila was supposed to attend the gala - but had to cancel because an old damage.
