Unprecedented Showdown Ahead: Végh and Vémola Prepare for Their Epic Final Clash!

This coming Saturday, June 14, Eden Stadium will be the venue for OKTAGON 72, where more than 28,000 enthusiastic fans will come together for an unforgettable evening filled with elite-level MMA competition.

This event is not just any ordinary fight night; it marks the thrilling conclusion of the fiercest rivalry in European MMA history.

In the highly anticipated main event, two icons – Karlos Vémola and Attila Végh – will square off for the third and ultimate time. Currently, their record stands at 1–1, and this upcoming bout will finally resolve the age-old debate: Who truly is the greatest fighter in the annals of Czech and Slovak MMA?

Their journey in the sport is nothing short of legendary. In 2019, Végh stunned the MMA community by knocking out Vémola in the first round of what was dubbed the original “Fight of the Century.” Driven by a desire for vengeance, Vémola found his redemption in 2024 at Eden Stadium, submitting Végh in the second round before a record-setting audience.

With both fighters announcing that this will be their final bout, Judgment Day has arrived. Everything is at stake. This event represents more than just a fight; it’s a pivotal moment that will define their legacies.

The co-main event showcases a matchup we’ve eagerly anticipated for the past six years. Two of Europe’s leading middleweights – Makhmud Muradov and Patrik Kincl – will finally clash in a high-pressure battle for the interim middleweight championship. Muradov’s striking power will collide with Kincl’s world-class grappling skills – this encounter promises to deliver fireworks!

Additionally, Bojan Veličković, who emerged victorious from the Tipsport Gamechanger tournament and is recognized as Europe’s top welterweight, will go up against former lightweight champion and European MMA finalist Rony Paradeiser. As Paradeiser transitions to the welterweight division, Veličković is determined to defend his title with all his might.

But that’s just the beginning – the fight card is packed with some of the biggest stars in OKTAGON MMA, ensuring that the excitement and atmosphere of a premier MMA extravaganza is felt right in the heart of Prague.

If you’ve never had the pleasure of attending an OKTAGON event, this is the one you won’t want to miss. The electric energy, the unwavering passion, and the dramatic conclusion of two illustrious careers – it truly doesn’t get any bigger than this.
