Michal Fijalka (6-1) after his loss, if we can call it a loss, with Hans Stringer (16-4-1) at Beast of the East 2 is still a top light heavyweight in Poland. The fight ended up with a technical submission. We know it was a mistake because as it turned out, kimura that Stringer had locked didn’t make a big impression on Michal. His frustration after the fight was caused by the referee’s decision to stop the fight. It is his first loss in MMA. Below, a short interview we did with Michal just after the fight.
