About Oktagon:

Carlo Di Blasi created Oktagon in 1996. At its beginning the show was dedicated to free fight, the name that was given initially to MMA (ສິ​ລະ​ປະ​ການ​ຕໍ່​ສູ້​ແບບ​ປະ​ສົມ). Other disciplines such as Kickboxing, Muay Thai and Savate were gradually added from the early 2000’s onwards. During the last 20 years Oktagon has reached a huge popularity, both in Italy and abroad, creating many superstars in the process including Bellator welterweight Paul Daley as well as The Petrosyan brothers (Giorgio ແລະ Armen), ຜູ້ Van Roosmalen, Valentijn Overeem, Rico Verhoeven ແລະ Artem Levin.
