What is the future of the Pirate? I’ve thanked the Octagon so far and turned them down for Bellator and the PFL, too, he said

Samuel Krištofič had his last match in February this year, when he lost to Patrik Kincl. He is now a free agent, he has no contract in the Octagon and can choose. What offers is he considering and what does he say to Zdeněk Polívka’s challenge?

Samuel Krištofič had his last match in February this year, when he lost to Patrik Kincl. He is now a free agent, he has no contract in the Octagon and can choose. What offers is he considering and what does he say to Zdeněk Polívka’s challenge?

When Karlos Vémola got injured, Samuel Kristofič called Pirate got a chance to fight for the interim middleweight title. He took that chance, but in February Patrik Kincl took the belt from him.

The Pirate hasn’t fought since, and he’s not under contract in the Octagon. Still, he was challenged to a fight by Zdenek Polivka, who is also closing in on a title shot. What did the Pirate say?

“I know that Zdenek Polívka challenged me to a fight in Frankfurt. There was a lot of respect and respect, so it’s totally fine for me. I immediatelythought, who’s got their fingers in it, because I don’t believe that he would just think of making a challenge,” he responded on his YouTube channel, not forgetting to tease Ondrej Novotný.

“I don’t have a contract at the moment, so I can’t comment on it and I can’t react to it. I just have to figure out what someone is going to offer me. I have some contracts on the table. Bellator is among them,” he added.

That’s the one he’d like to move to, but he still has to get very different financial compensation than he gets in our country. Moreover, Bellator’s offer is not the only one.

“I don’t want to say that the fight won’t happen, but I’ve sat with Ondra and Pale before, but so far I’ve said thank you and declined because of Bellator and the PFL. Of course there was an offer from RFA as well. So it’s not about responding to the calls, it’s about choosing what’s best for me,” he explained.

He then said that after another meeting with Pavol Neruda, negotiations have progressed and it is possible that we will see him in the Octagon after all. Still, a move elsewhere is more likely.
