FAME MMA made a highly anticipated stop in Warsaw this weekend. Saturday’s FAME 28: ARMAGEDON event kicked off at 8:00 PM local time, but drama unfolded even before the main card as one bout was unexpectedly canceled.
Fight Scratched from FAME 28 Card Due to No-Show
The scheduled matchup between Natan Marcon and Paweł Jóźwiak was thrown into doubt when Marcon failed to appear for Friday’s weigh-in and subsequent media obligations. Organizers reported being unable to contact the fighter, ultimately announcing the fight would be off unless Marcon presented himself at the ATM Studio on Saturday. However, Marcon did not appear, and the fight was officially canceled.
The evening did feature a women’s bout, with Katarzyna “Laluna” Alexander securing a unanimous decision victory over Dorota “Gliniara” Kochanek, even breaking Kochanek’s nose with a powerful strike. Before the main event, fans were treated to an unusual contest: Paweł Tyburski and Marcin Wrzosek battled while seated in chairs, strapped in and limited to boxing. Tyburski emerged victorious, capitalizing on a significant reach advantage.
