In connection with the OKTAGON Prime 5 tournament, the return of Carlos Vémola was very surprisingly confirmed. However, Vémola will go into battle at the beginning of June, two weeks after boxing with Marp, because he will present himself at the OKTAGON 33 event, which is taking place in Frankfurt, Germany. However, this does not end the surprise. Vémola has already pointed to an opponent, who should not be Pirate or Kincl, but Xavier, who scored another important win in the last tournament. What about the rival and current middleweight champion Patrik Kincl?
Ondřej Novotný admitted a mistake and catered to the fans
“Another opponent I have in the viewfinder. Xavier, you are my next target, “ Karlos Vémola said clearly on his IG profile, to which he added a thematic picture from the shooting range.
Of course, the fans immediately started to point out that as long as Pest was in the semi-heavy weight, Vémola worked in the middle, but as soon as he left, Terminator moved. However, the most famous domestic MMA fan Pavel Trbušek correctly pointed out that the choice of weight is also related to the fact that Vémola should have 2 matches within 2 weeks, when some bigger weight loss is unrealistic. So we offer a higher weight and the currently started fighter Xavier.
However, Patrik Kincl was quick to comment in the comments, “Someone else should talk about. After all, no one forces him to go 14 days in a row. Nobody pushes him into starting matches. He can put 100% in a pile and go straight for the title, but it doesn’t… ”
Of course, Patrik applied for revenge with Vémola, but at the same time, after winning the title, he forwarded that now the Terminator would definitely start zigzagging and figuring out ways to avoid a duel.
He originally wanted Vémol Pirát
The original plan looked like Carlos would challenge Pirate and then pounce on Kincl. “The pirate really showed his heart, he fought. It will not be easy to end it. And I may have another challenge, another goal. Ondra Novotný and I have agreed that I will go to Štvanice with the Pirate. Which I think is fair. I haven’t been in an MMA match for almost two years, so maybe just because of my name I don’t deserve a title duel right away. I have to beat the former interim champion to deserve the title duel. So it will be more than fair. I will go with Krištofič, I will defeat him.
My next challenge will be to be the first to ever end it before the limit. And then at the end of the year, I’ll go get the belt that has a guy I’ve beaten once. And I see he’s not in the best shape, he can’t breathe that weight. Or he would have to collapse a little, and then be the little fat seventy-seven. So he can choose…
Now I have to get in good health, to complete the great challenge of life that I have in front of me, and that is for the first time and probably for the last time in my life to start boxing. And then prepare for the MMA match at Štvanice, which I will go with the Pirate. And at the end of the year, I’ll pull the belt back over my shoulder to where it belongs. There is no need to say anything more about that, ” Karlos Vémola indicated his plan for iSport.cz after the duel Pirate vs Kincl, but now it has changed its contours.
