Former FCR bantamweight champion Felipe Lima is one of Scandinavia’s most promising fighters right now. The Allstars prospect has been looking to fight Oktagon MMA champion Jonas ”Shark” Mågård for a long time.
On Instagram, Lima recently claimed that Mågård received a contract for a Oktagon title bout. However, instead of accepting the fight with Lima, ”Shark” calls out Michael Diega who has a record of 9-4.
“Jonas Shark sign the contract that Oktagon MMA sent to you! Stop being a chicken and accept the fight. I’m tired of you being running from me and try to avoid this fight. Now what you’re doing is not good for you. You have challenged the guy that you beat in your last mma fight, you just challenged guys that you know you can win. Stop running cause people wanna see a good fight, they don’t wanna see “Run” if they wanted they would watch USAIN BOLT. And last but not least you’re a CHICKEN not a shark. Sign the contract,” Felipe Lima wrote in an Instagram post.
