Will Fleury has the opportunity to enter the rankings in his promotional debut when he faces the number 5 ranked Daniel Skvor at OKTAGON 56.
The Light Heavyweight contest is just one of a number of bouts that have been added to the card over the last few days.
Will Fleury made his intentions clear when he signed for the promotion earlier this year. The Irishman put pen to paper following an impressive run competing under numerous different global promotions including Bellator and the PFL.
Fleury's recent form has been some of the best of his career. His last loss came back in 2020 against Maciej Rozanski and since then, he has amassed an impressive five fight unbeaten run securing five decision victories. However, Fleury's last contest, against Krzyztof Jotko was turned over to a no contest by the Nevada State Athletic Commission due to him returning an elevated testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio in a drug test.
The Irishman will look to work his way up the rankings as quick as he can, and he has the opportunity to add a number next to his name if he can beat Daniel Skvor on April 20th.
Skvor has had an extremely busy start to professional life, competing 10 times in the space of three years. The seasoned kickboxer made his professional MMA debut at OKTAGON 20 and lost to a second round submission.
He then had seven months away from competing to work on his craft, came back and managed to rack up an impressive 5 fight winning streak, with four of those wins coming in the very first round.
'Deedee' then had a small dip in form and was handed back to back losses for the first time in his MMA career against Jorick Montagnac and the vastly more experienced Dan Vinni at OKTAGON 38 and OKTAGON 41, respectively.
The Czech Republican ended 2023 strong, managing to get back into the win column against Nermin Hajdarpasic before earning a unanimous decision against Martin Zawada to close the year out in style.
OKTAGON 56 is shaping up nicely with former Cage Warriors Middleweight champion Mick Stanton set to face Kamil Wojciechowski and Megan Morris will look to keep her unbeaten promotional record in tact against Spaniard, Aitana Alvarez and Denis 'The Menace' Frimpong will square off against Callum Mullen in a Lightweight bout.
OKTAGON Challenge series winner George Staines, fan favourite Shem Rock and number 1 Flyweight contender Aaron Aby are all set to feature but their opponents are yet to be announced.
