Johannesburg, South Africa – In a last-minute twist of fate, Germany’s Ugur Özkaplan has suffered a torn meniscus in training and withdrawn from his EFC 65 main card fight against Elvis Moyo. Cameroon’s heavy hitting, Nico Yamdjie accepted the late notice challenge and will fill the spot with 8 days to fight night.
Living and training in Cape Town out of Pro Fitness Kickboxing, Yamdjie has impressed fans with his hand speed and head movement. A giant of man, he always carries a smile on his face as if unfazed by anything in front of him. Possibly because only he knows his true power and capabilities.
This fight takes place on the main card ahead of the light heavyweight championship fight between Champion Dalcha and Stuart Austin.
EFC 65 Dalcha vs Austin is presented by BetXchange.com and takes place on Saturday 4 November live from Carnival City, Johannesburg.
