Karlos Vémola has lived to see it. Octagon has just confirmed a welterweight title fight for the Czech Terminator at Prague’s Štvanice. His opponent will be Serbian Ilic, nicknamed the Joker.

Karlos Vémola is on a breakneck pace after returning from a long injury layoff. At the beginning of June, he won in the boxing ring against singer Marp, only to beat Polish Pasternak in the first round in the cage in Frankfurt, Germany, two weeks later.

His next goal is to win the welterweight title, where the division’s championship belt is vacant following the departure of Viktor Peshta to the overseas PFL. Vémola challenged Brazilian Xavier, but he backed out of the fight and the Serbian star fighting in Poland’s KSW stepped up.

“Vemola, you’re going to be my number eight, ” Aleksandar Ilic responded to the most popular fighter in the Octagon, who was looking for an opponent for his title fight. He was alluding to the fact that the Serbian has seven first-round knockouts to his wrestling credit.

“There is only one king in OKTAGON and now even in Germany knows it,” Vémola said. “No matter who they throw at me, the belt will be mine,” the Czech Terminator confidently proclaims. Will the lions eat first?

The new face of Oktagon, the feared stand-up guy “Joker” Ilić, is in his way. His respectable 13 wins in a total of 11 cases did not go to the judges’ scorecards. In his last four fights in Polish KSW, he has won two fights by KO.

“If you want to win any fight, you have to fight like you’re already dead,” Ilic says on the Oktagon Instagram account. “I don’t believe in anything, I’m just here for the violence,” he says, also brimming with confidence.

The welterweight title fight between the Joker and the Terminator will be the main attraction of Oktagon 34 in Prague’s Štvanica. The most beautiful tournament of the year takes place on July 23, with the gala evening starting at 7pm.
