Swedish Karate Combat fighter and influencer Samuel Ericsson is looking for a fight.

In a new statement on Instagram, the Swede claimed to be ready to put his upcoming Misfits boxing bout on hold to accept the challenge of fellow Karate Combat fighter Alexandre Bouderbane.

Ericsson is willing to move up a weight class and fight Bouderbane on June 24 in Miami.

“Alexandre Bouderbane, you challenged me one year ago to a fight in Karate Combat. One year ago I was busy with taking care of Tarek Khelefi’s challenge, and I couldn’t fight you then, but here’s what I’m ready to do,” Ericsson said and continued.

“You know and everybody knows I have a boxing fight in Misfits, but I’m ready to come back to Karate Combat to fight you before my boxing fight. I’m also ready to go up to your weight class because I know you can’t come down to mine. I also know that you lost your last fight to Gabriel Cera. If you lose to me, that might be your contract, you might never fight again in Karate Combat. Love and respect, but I’m ready to take this fight and from today I’m ready to accept your challenge.”
