OKTAGON 85: SEVERINO VS. KAKHOROV

Gemini said OKTAGON 85, held on March 7, 2026, at Hamburg’s Barclays Arena, was a landmark event for the promotion headlined by the crowning of a new Bantamweight King. In the main event, the undefeated Brazilian phenom Igor Severino made history by becoming the youngest champion in OKTAGON history, defeating Khurshed Kakhorov via a dominant second-round TKO. The card further solidified OKTAGON’s German expansion with a co-main event victory for local icon Christian Eckerlin, who edged out Matouš Kohout in a grueling catchweight battle.
