With January 19th drawing ever closer on the horizon, the Abu Dhabi Extreme Championship has been gradually revealing the fights that will make up the card for its second edition, and another piece of the puzzle has fallen into place. Fighting in the preliminary card, MMA welterweights Ahmed Amir and Matus Arpas will go toe-to-toe in a Grappling bout at the ADXC cage. Also known as “The Butcher”, the Egyptian Ahmed Amir boasts 12 victories in his career, seven of those coming via chokes and an armbar. With his aggressive and unrelenting game, Ahmed will use all the tools at his disposal to come out on top in the upcoming duel.
Hailing from Slovakia, Matus Arpas is a dangerous fighter and Jiu-Jitsu brown belt who has 3 wins and only one loss in his record, with all of his victories coming via submission. With his well-rounded toolset, Matus comes to the ADXC cage not only as a dangerous contender but also as the spark that threatens to light the whole battlefield on fire.
