Aug 26, 2013 Comments
(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Swedish MMA pioneer David
Bielkheden from Stockholm challenges Gothenburg's most popular
MMA star Besam
Yousef at Superior Challenge 9 on November 23, at
Scandinavium
The Hilti fighter from Stockholm is one of Sweden's foremost MMA athletes who also have paved the way for Swedish athletes at international promotions, and represented Sweden in the world's largest arenas, far ahead of most. Bielkheden competed for Superior Challenge’s Welterweight title against the reigning title-holder Daniel Acacio at Superior Challenge 6, and at Superior Challenge 8 he fought none other than Marcus "The Irish Hand Grenade" Davis. In his quest to conquer the Superior Challenge belt and also become the main Welterweight fighter in Sweden he now challenges Gothenburg’s Besam Yousef in his hometown.
Besam who recently got released from his contract with UFC was not
late to accept the challenge. At his last two bouts the Gladius MMA
fighter has fought Simeon
Thoresen who is also booked to participate at Superior
Challenge 9, and the Superior Challenge fighter Papy Abedi.
The popular Gothenburger is clearly the favourite of them two, and
will also have the hometown crowd’s full support.
Babak Aghavali, CEO Superior Group International: - Stockholm vs Gothenburg, Hilti vs Gladius, who is the best Welterweight fighter of the two? There are lots of variables, which make this bout interesting from several aspects. Besides, I love it when fighters challenge each other. David is determined to bring the Superior belt to Sweden, and thereby willing to fight anyone who can give him the opportunity to a title chance. Besam is a very tough fighter and I was really impressed by his last two bouts. In addition, he will have the support of his home crowd, but the question is whether that is enough against David's experience?
Besam Yousef, athlete: - It is going to be real fun to fight at Superior Challenge here in my hometown. I’m convinced that it will be really awesome atmosphere at the venue, with lots of Gothenburgers cheering for their local fighters.
