Johannesburg (South Africa) – Intensity was at an all-time high at the weigh-in for EFC AFRICA 14, presented by MusclePharm. Carnival City’s Mardi Gras Theatre was packed with mixed martial arts fans shouting support for their favourite athletes during 13 nail-biting stare-downs.

Featherweight champion Demarte Pena and challenger Wesley Hawkey both made weight, then butted heads and had to be pulled apart, promising to settle things in the hexagon tomorrow night.

Lightweight champion Costa Ioannou and challenger Adam Speechly also made weight. Unlike their featherweight counterparts, the lightweights displayed respect for each other as they shook hands and exchanged pleasantries ahead of their bout.
