Q&A with Oktagon MMA Co-Founder Pavol Neruda Ahead of Oktagon 62

Oktagon MMA is on the move.

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 the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s highest-attended event, Okatgon 62: Eckerlin vs. Jungwirth from the Deutsche Bank Park has sold 58,000 tickets and aims to deliver a night the European MMA scene will never forget.

German fan favorites Christian Eckerlin and Christian Jungwirth will battle it out in the main event, and the card includes two title fights for the middleweight and women’s strawweight crowns.
