Oktagon MMA is on the move.
What do you think of our new belt that will be awarded to the OKTAGON 62 main event winner tomorrow night?While racing through the airport to board to his flight to Frankfurt, Germany, Oktagon MMA co-founder and promoter Pavol Neruda couldn’t hide his anticipation ahead of Saturday’s historic card. Set to surpass thefrom the Deutsche Bank Park has sold 58,000 tickets and aims to deliver a night the European MMA scene will never forget.
Oktagon 62 is set to break the record for largest attendance at an MMA event. What does that record mean to you and what does it mean for the promotion moving forward? Neruda: The city and arena are very important. You want an arena that’s proper to your needs, with at least 10,000 and 20,000 seats, depending on the area. Of course, it’s about the actual fight card. Some matchmakers try to make a fight where the hero will always win. But we don’t do this. The fans are not stupid, and they can feel the tension of an even match. Even though if the “hero” wins and it’ll be good for our future strategy, we’ll never do this.
When the world came to a halt in 2020, Oktagon MMA was still one of the most active promotions in MMA. How did you push through the adversity?
