Final Fight highlight: Meet undefeated FFC lightweight Max Rohskopf
Launched in 2012 to host what was expected to serve as the final contest of striking legend Mirko Cro Cop’s kickboxing career, Final Fight Championship is now Las Vegas’ premier multi-discipline martial arts promotion.
Now the flagship tenant of the Fight Dome at Caesars Entertainment Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Sin City, Final Fight Championship (FFC) hosts events that feature boxing and kickboxing bouts alongside MMA contests, as well. More importantly for MMA Junkie readers, the promotion has agreed to share its rapidly growing library of fights with our audience.
Today, check out the recent work of undefeated lightweight prospect Max Rohskopf (2-0) who scored an impressive victory over Omar Hussein (4-1) at April’s FFC 35 event. A North Carolina State wrestling product, Rohskopf currently trains in Las Vegas at Xtreme Couture and Drysdale Jiu-Jitsu. Check out his handiwork in the video above.
FFC returns to the Fight Dome on Thursday for FFC 37. MMA Junkie’s John Morgan and former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir will call the fights, which will air via tape delay on CBS Sports Network.
The FFC 37 lineup includes:
- Steve Montgomery vs. Anderson Goncalves
- Mike Santiago vs. Alonzo Martinez
- Keith Lee vs. Justin Linn
- Jake Albinio vs. Kris Berberich
- Ivan Erslan vs. Roger Carroll
