Rock provokes again! I have received offers from all the world’s organizations. It’s clear that everyone wanted me, but I just wanted to be in the Oktagon, he said
Shem Rock is one of the most hated fighters in the Octagon. The Liverpool patriot annoyed especially Czech fans with his feud with Jaroslav Pokorny. They demanded his end in the organization, instead he extended his contract and now he is provoking again.

Shem Rock is constantly churning the waters of MMA. His last fight in the Oktagon was canceled against Jaroslav Pokorny, whom he attacked during staredown and who was unable to participate due to injury. His contract with the organization was subsequently terminated.
Some fans even signed petitions to keep him out of the Oktagon, but the organization was all too aware that it had a gem in Rock. He’s one of the few that evokes the proper emotions that make viewers watch the sport. Both the positive ones and especially the negative ones, which are perhaps even stronger.
Rock will return to the cage in April in Birmingham, England, facing twenty-five-year-old Englishman Stefano Catacoli. The Liverpool Patriot has now once again decided to provoke and comment on his stay in the domestic organization.
Rock on continuing in the Oktagon
“I wanted tocontinue in the Oktagon from the very beginning. After Manchester my contract expired and it was time to negotiate a new one, but unfortunately I was without a manager at the time.
When I found Graham Boylen, it took a while to introduce him to Ondra and Palo, but in the end they got on really well. I’m glad it worked out that way, that I’m still a part of it. Iknow that Oktagon has not lost interest in me,” he said in an interview with Kaocko.cz.
According to his words, he had no shortage of offers and could choose which of them he liked the most. However, Oktagon is constantly growing and Rock decided to stay in it for that reason.
“I got it from all the world organizations. If you look at the British scene, I’m the biggest name of all, along with Luke Riley and Adam Cullen, I’m one of the representatives of the new generation. It’s clear that everyone wanted me, but I just wanted to be in the Octagon!” he added.
