Saturday was a busy day for combat sports in Sweden as two pro-level fight cards took place in two different cities. Immediately following the FCR 14 event in Västerås Arena, Zone Pro League 4: “Money Rain” kicked off in Kooperativet in Gothenburg with an exciting lineup featuring four A-class Muay Thai bouts and three professional MMA fights.
In the last MMA bout of the night, IMMAF world silver medalist Robin Enontekiö scored to fastest win on the card as he dropped Henrik Lie with a left hook, took his back and sunk in the rear-naked choke finish after just 45 seconds.
With the impressive submission win, Enontekiö moved to 2-0 and was later selected as one of two performance bonus winners, picking up a 35,000 SEK “submission of the night” check from fight promotor, investor and event sponsor Daniel Högström of Bulldog Media Group.
Sam Ghoroghi scores biggest win to date
In Zone Pro League 4’s Muay Thai main event, Swedish champ Sam Ghoroghi squared off against multiple-time Afghan champion and IFMA world bronze medalist Sayed Mosawi. After three hard rounds of back-and-forth action, hometown-hero Ghorogi was awarded the win by split decision.
This was arguably Ghoroghi’s biggest win to date and he also scored a 35,000 SEK “performance of the night” bonus for his effort.
