The "Natural Born Killer" Malik Arash Mawlayi defeated the American striker Cyrus Washington last night, to become the new ESPN Martial Combat world champion at 72kg. Malik did not let the 7cm height advantage of his opponent factor into the fight, as he capitalised on a mistake by Cyrus, took his back, and forced him to tap out in the first round due to a rear naked choke.

Egon Racz unfortunately lost his fight against the highly rated Filipino fighter Eduard Folayang. The fight was stopped due to a guillotine choke.

Congratulations to both fighters from all of Legacy Gym!

Keep an eye on the blog for more pictures and videos of the fights, I will post them as soon as they become available. For detailed coverage of the event, check the articles below:
