Themba Gorimbo has defeated Luke Michael to win the Eco
Fight Championship Welterweight Grand Prix to become the first Zimbabwean
champion in EFC history.
It took only minutes for Gorimbo to land a destructive
right hook that cut Michael deeply, above his eyebrow. With the fight nearly being called off,
Michael charged for another takedown after the restart, but Gorimbo was smart
and ruthless, sprawling, spinning to Michael’s back and laying down intense
ground and pound until the referee stepped in and called it.
A jubilant Gorimbo celebrated and then called out the UFC
welterweight champion. “Dana White, Kamara Usman is no African. He left when he
was 6 years old. Sign me and let me run the division.”
The fight was held in South Africa.
