Ozan Aslaner vs Denis Frimpong

💣 Ozan Aslaner and Denis Frimpong will face off at OKTAGON 97 in a 72kg catchweight bout, putting a premium on conditioning. Both fighters will look to establish an early advantage and prevent the other from settling into a comfortable range. But an overly aggressive start could leave them short of energy in the later rounds. Managing their output will be key.

We favour Denis Frimpong, provided he balances pressure with defensive discipline. Constant movement and well-timed attacks could force Aslaner onto the back foot, allowing Frimpong to dictate the pace and score points. He will need to move away after throwing combinations, though, to avoid dangerous counters. Our prediction: Denis Frimpong to win.
