Chinese players were invited to participate abroad, but the original opponent withdrew from the competition, and finally won the victory!
On January 28, Beijing time, in the 94th edition of Alash Pride, Kazakhstan's top MMA event, Bargeng from China traveled thousands of miles abroad to compete. Although a series of unexpected events before the game, and the second weight loss also caused Bargon to be in poor form, he still managed to win a hearty victory by crushing his opponent in the cage.
Alash Pride is one of Kazakhstan's top MMA tournaments, with nearly 100 tournaments held at present, featuring not only the top players from Kazakhstan and Central Asian countries, but also many fierce fighters from fighting powerhouses such as Russia and Brazil.
Balgen's professional record is 16-5, from Hebei Rock Kung Fu Club, and he is currently selected for UFC Shanghai pi training, and his strength is definitely among the top in China.
Bargon won eight of his 10 fights in the cage and also played the UFC Road to Elite tryouts on 28 May last year against Japan's No. 1 bantamweight in the Southeast and a six-bout winning streak in ONE Championship.
In that match, Baargon was only favored by 5 percent of the people before the game, and almost finished Shuya Kamikubo, but ultimately lost by a controversial penalty point.
Bargon was then invited to the Middle East to compete in the UAE Warriors 44, where he opened against former bantamweight champion Xavier Alaoui from Canada with a 14-4-6 submission. Even though the opponent won the gold belt and ranked fifth among the 286 players in the West Asian region, Bargon showed strong strength in the game, and although he was an "outsider", he still won the favor of the judges and won the victory!
On this trip to Kazakhstan, Bargon and his coach departed from Shanghai and arrived after a long flight. During the normal weight reduction, they got bad news, the original Uzbek opponent withdrew, and the tournament team could only temporarily find a new substitute. Although another competitor soon followed, Bargen, who had already been weighed-in, continued to lose weight because of his weight.
Balgen, who spent a lot of energy and money preparing for the competition, and traveled long distances with his coach to ensure that the competition could go smoothly, could only experience two weight losses on the day of the competition, and continued to lose more than a kilogram. also due to the physical injury of the second weight loss and the complete lack of rest, Bargon's competitive state was not good, and he could not play 100% strength, but fortunately, in the end, his own hard power completely defeated his opponent and won the game without danger.
There have always been many surprises and uncertainties in away games, but this is also the link that most excellent players must go through, and only through accumulation can we continue to learn lessons and ensure that the same situation will not happen again in the future.
Balgon is currently on the rise in momentum as he prepares for the next year's UFC Road to Elite fight, so let's keep an eye on him and look forward to seeing him hit the bigger stage soon.
