Matrix Fight Night 17 is set to deliver high-stakes action on August 2, with two title fights and the return of a major Indian MMA star headlining a stacked card.
Bantamweight champion Chungreng Koren will defend his title against Rabindra Dhant of Nepal in the main event. Koren, one of the most consistent performers in Indian MMA, looks to extend his dominance in the division against Dhant, who is aiming to bring the belt home to Nepal.
The co-main event features rising strawweight Sonam Zomba vying for the vacant title against Russia’s Anna Safeeva, in a clash that could define the future of the women’s division.
Also making headlines is the return of Angad Bisht, who enters the MFN cage after a notable run in the Road to UFC. He faces Firdaus Zaripov in a key Flyweight bout that could reestablish Bisht’s claim to title contention.
Other notable matchups include Abdul Azim Badakhshi vs. Mert Ozyildirim in a featherweight contest and a lightweight scrap between Sandeep Dahiya and Solekh Khasanov.
MFN 17 promises to be one of the promotion’s biggest events of the year, bringing together top talent from India and abroad.
