In the light heavyweight title bout we will see”King” Karl Albrektsson (14-5) defend his title for the first time as he’s taking on Bellator and PFL veteran Chuck Campbell (7-4).

Since winning the strap in November last year, Albrektsson has unfortunately been pulled from of a number of fights in both Superior Challenge and PFL. On Saturday, however, he will finally be back in action.

“I love competing at home in front of family and friends,” Albrektsson recently told Maximum Sports. about the upcoming title fight. “I’ve fought all over the world, but it always feels extra special to be on home turf. Superior gives me the opportunity to be active and do what I love thanks to their good cooperation with the big foreign organizations. Getting the chance to compete at Superior means a lot to me, it gives me meaning.”

Campbell is coming off a decision win and is competing on Swedish soil for the first time. Representing the world-famous American Kickboxing Academy, he’s looking to silence Albrektsson’s supporters and return to the US with the Superior Challenge belt.
