On Saturday November 4, OKTAGON MMA will make their UK debut as they put on a card at the AO Arena in Manchester.
The fight card features an unusual clash between two British celebrities who are unlikely to be seen in the cage, as comedian Paul Smith will take on reality TV star Jake Quickenden.
First flyweight title bout
The card also features OKTAGON’s first-ever flyweight title fight will as Aaron Aby takes on Elias Garcia, who has never been defeated outside of the UFC.
We will also see fan favorite Shem Rock face Czech MMA legend Jaroslav Pokorny. The fight is even more interesting as the Liverpool fighter Rock spent 10 years on the run because of a crime he didn’t commit, while Pokorny works as a police officer.
