Heading into the FCR 15 co-main event rising star Alexander Lööf was the understandable betting favourite, but grizzled veteran Fernando Flores can give anyone a run for their money!

Lööf started off strong, pushing the pace and winning the first round. In the second round, however, Flores began putting on the pressure, overwhelming Lööf and making it one round a piece heading into the third.

The third round was close but Flores seemed to have the edge – up until Lööf fired off a massive flying knee, turning the tide of battle.

This fight greatly encapsulated the nature of a classic MMA fight with the momentum shifting back and forth until the final buzzer. This was a classic of 2023.
