Jonathan Larsson is one of the most interesting fighters in Sweden at the moment.
Yesterday, he headlined Muay Thai event MTFL 9 against Luke Bar. The Swede put on a master class performance and stopped the Brit with a brutal leg kick in the third round.
In two weeks, Larsson will change sports for his second amateur MMA bout. He will face Abdulrahman Amaev in a Catchweight fight (73 kg) at Superior Academy 1 in Uppsala.
The first-ever Superior Academy card will go down at Fyrishov Arena on September 14.
“We will become the greatest amateur organization in Sweden, and the promotion that pays our pro fighters the best. The fighters will always come first for me. We have a few pro fighters on the card, but this is mostly a platform for amateur talents,” Andres Viracca, Head of Superior Academy, said.
