VIDEO: The scariest man in the Oktagon? It’s already decided before the fight. Moeil and Todev delivered an intense staredown that got things boiling. It was a brawl
There doesn’t even have to be a battle for the title of the Octagon’s scariest man. Whoever dominates the duel, Hatef Moeil wins by his demeanor in scary.
The Oktagon will be in Cologne on Saturday and after a long time it will see a new heavyweight king. In fact, there doesn’t even need to be a battle for the position of the most terrifying man in the organization. Whoever dominates the duel, Hatef Moeil will definitely win over Lazar Todev with his demeanor.
OKTAGON 49 offers a very interesting fight card. After all, it is not for nothing that almost 20 thousand spectators will come to the Lanxess Arena to watch. Cologne will host the biggest MMA gala in German history.
Stars like Kerim Engizek, Niklas Stolze, Andrei Kalashnik, Christian Eckerlin and Leandro Silva will be in action. However, in the main fight of the evening, Hatef Moeil and Lazar Todev will clash.
Moeil and Todev, by the way, will fight for the heavyweight title, which means one thing. They’ll face the scariest man in the organization. But it’s clear who the scarier man is without the fight even happening.
The reason? Moeil hasn’t come across as much of a likable guy since joining the Oktagon. He’s not even trying to be. He’s aggressive, overconfident and, as was confirmed at the press conference the day before the tournament, he has trouble containing his anger.
Against him, Todev comes across as a likeable calm force that most fans will probably root for. After all, it’s worth noting how Moeil used to pick on Vemola, for example. Even at the press conference in Cologne, he hit the table hard when discussing his opponent.
Moeil and Todev delivered an intense staredown
Things were quiet at first between the two fighters who will face off for the heavyweight title on Saturday night. However, there were some verbal exchanges towards the end of the presser during which Hatef Moeil actually had trouble keeping his composure.
Unfortunately, he didn’t tame his anger in the final minutes either. On the contrary. He seemed to be saving it for the upcoming staredown. It was very intense. It showed the greatness of the German boss.
To make matters worse, Moeil pushed his opponent away. The promoters had their work cut out for them. Especially after the Pokorny vs. Rock match was scrapped before the last tournament in Manchester due to a heated staredown.
