Dominant champion #4 – Garreth McLellan


Garreth"Soldierboy" McLellan has had a dream run in the EFC. Not only has he remained undefeated in the promotion, but he has also managed to avenge his sole professional loss whilst inside the hexagon. McLellan is currently on a 5 fight win streak.
Arguably the most popular fighter in South Africa, Soldierboy will look to defend his Middleweight strap and put an exclamation mark on his flawless EFC career when he faces the Pitbull Jeremy Smith at EFC Africa 12 in March this year.
