It has been a couple of years in the making, but Saeid Mirzaei will make his professional debut at Battlefield Fight League 54 (BFL 54) against American Eric McConico.
BFL officials told MMASucka.com the news late Monday evening.
Mirzaei (0-0) earned the notable title of IMMAF World Champion in 2015 and also had the opportunity to do the exact same thing this past year, but life got in the way. The 25-year-old holds a 16-3 amateur record, with a number of titles to his name.
