These are all the fights from FNC 8 and the 'Armagedon' final: Batinić, Trušček and Giorgadze are back

Two months have passed since the unprecedented MMA spectacle under the open sky of the Arena in Pula, where the gladiators of the modern era proved themselves in front of a sold-out auditorium and a large audience on small screens at the seventh FNC event. The Fight Nation Championship became richer for the new champion, with two belts remaining on home turf. There is no stopping, the fastest growing organization in this part of Europe is moving on, and already on November 5, FNC 8 and the final of the third season of the "Armagedon Jamnica Pro Sport" MMA league are ahead of us!

The event will be divided into two parts, and the Sutinska vrela hall in Zagreb will host excellent fighters from the region, but also from other parts of Europe. The main part of the show can be watched via PPV, exclusively by subscribing to 24SATA+ content. Already in the opening of the main part, we will have a clash between the great hopes of the organization, the Portuguese Leandro Gomes (19, 2-1), who presented himself to the local audience in Zabok, and the Zagreb talent Fran Luka Đurić (17, 2-0) is waiting in the catchweight (-63 kg) .

After them, the 'Georgian demon' Luka Giorgadze (22, 4-1) enters the cage, who delighted the audience in Zabok with his performance against the greatest regional talent Marko Bojković (20, 3-0). This time Jordan Dorval (30, 2-2) from France is waiting for him. Heavyweights who were supposed to fight in Pula will also try out the cage. It is about another Georgian, Shoti Betlemidze (41, 14-2-1), who was scheduled to have a match with Frenchman Malik Merad (35, 24-16) for the second time, but this time it will not happen either. Experienced Portuguese Quentin Domingos (28, 8-2) will enter the cage.

Of course, we are talking about Ivica 'Terror' Trušček (34, 41-37), who will not remember Pula well because he lost in 18 seconds to Sava Lazić (33, 11-6), and he is looking for a return to the winning track in his favorite organization and that in the co-title fight of the event against the unpleasant Marko Kisić (30, 7-3), whom he already told to do him a favor and 'send him out of the sport in a samurai way - feet first'. The eruption at the end of the evening will be ensured by the returner to the cage after four years.

Matej Batinić (30, 15-5) was one of the biggest Croatian talents, but injuries did not affect him. However, he decided to show everyone what kind of warrior he is, and this year he became the world champion in Savate boxing, and now he is waiting for his return to the cage on home soil. Waiting for him is the unpleasant Pole Mateusz Strzelczyk (31, 11-3-1), who also has a victory against Vlasta 'El Chape' Čepa (27, 9-2), who we also watched in FNC.

THE  'ARMAGEDON' FINALS ARE OPENING THE EVENING

Many fighters from past seasons of "Armagedon" continued their journey in FNC, and this year's finalists are aware that Saturday, November 5, is an ideal opportunity for them to prove themselves on the big stage. Finals await us in four categories - featherweight (-66 kg), lightweight (-70 kg), welterweight (-77 kg) and middleweight (-84 kg) categories. Zagreb's American Top Team has the most finalists, four of them.

In the lightest category, local fighter Filip Lokas (22) from ATT will fight for the title against Demahmet Sinani (19), who is coming from Kosovo, and both have top amateur careers behind them. Then, ATT's Abraham Salimon Are (22), who we watched in the first two seasons, returns to the cage, and this is third time lucky for him. David Travnicek (27) from Austria awaits him in the lightweight final.

There was a change in the welterweight category, where Tomislav Sičaja (20) from ATT had to give up due to an injury, and instead of him, a well-known fighter from past seasons, Luka Vargović (27) from Zagreb's Ban Team, jumped into the finals, and Ognjen Babić is waiting for him there. (21) who defends the colors of the Novi Sad club Car Dušan Silni.

The main match of the first part of the show, which will be available for free streaming via the 24sata YouTube channel, will be between teammates from ATT, Selver Mahmić (25) and David Sivonjić (21). These midfielders showed how effectively they can finish the fight in the semifinals, and in a possible 15 minutes they will have to forget how they were before, but how they will "share the hall" even after the match.

Tickets for the show are on sale and you can buy them through the Eventim system, at Petrol gas stations and in the hall of Zagreb's American Top Team on Zagrebačka avenija 108.

The show starts at 7 p.m.
