His Head on Straight, Virgil Zwicker Looks to Take Razak Al-Hassan’s Head Off

After winning the first eight fights of his professional career by being a bomber in the cage, going for broke with a passing regard for strategy – his strategy was to knock his opponent out – Virgil Zwicker lost three of his next five fights.

Call that his period of awakening; his push in the right direction.

Having spent his formative years in and out of juvenile detention, it’s no wonder that Zwicker was a loose cannon when it came to his early fighting career. But he’s since forged a much more sustainable path with the guidance of his coaches at Team Quest and manager Nima Safapour.
