Scott Askham Hopes to Capture Middleweight Gold in Hostile Territory at KSW 49

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight Scott Askham has taken his game to the next level since joining Polish promotion KSW, where he is 2-0 with two quick knockouts.

Now, Askham gets his chance to fight for 185-pound gold this Saturday at KSW 49. To get the chance to fight for the belt is a surreal feeling for the 30-year-old.

“It is great. To come out here in Poland to fight a Polish guy for the title, it doesn’t get much better than that,” Askham said to Sherdog.com. “I love that atmosphere. I’m looking forward to it.
