OKTAGON 28: Pešta vs. Pütz

OKTAGON 28: A clash of European titans in the O2 Universum. On September 25, 2021, Prague hosted a monumental night for the heavier weight classes, headlined by a battle between two of the most accomplished light heavyweights on the continent. The main event was a historic "Champion vs. Champion" caliber matchup for the vacant light heavyweight title between the Czech UFC veteran Viktor Pešta and the German "T-800" Stephan Pütz. In a bloody and tactical war, Pešta showcased his elite wrestling and ground-and-pound, forcing a doctor's stoppage at the end of the third round due to a severe injury to Pütz's nose. This victory made Pešta the first fighter to hold titles in two different major organizations simultaneously. The card also featured a dominant performance by Leo Brichta, who continued his hot streak, and a successful return for Miloš Petrášek, making it a night of triumph for the home favorites.
