Koba Iakobidze vs George Micouris - EFC 14


Another lightweight fight has been slated to grace the Hexagon at EFC Africa 14. Georgian boxer turned MMA fighter Koba Iakobidze will face Greek Muay Thai fighter George Micouris.

Koba Iakobidze (1-2) put on an impressive striking performance in his EFC Africa debut against Gareth Buirski at EFC 12. Though Iakobidze did manage to survive an early onslaught on the ground, the former Boxer showed vulnerability and was eventually submitted by Buirski in the third round. If Koba Iakobidze can improve his ground game he will be very dangerous in the Hexagon.

George Micouris (0-0) will make his EFC Africa debut at EFC 14. Micouris, a Muay Thai practitioner will make the transition into MMA and test himself in the Hexagon for the first time.

Koba Iakobidze and George Micouris are both strikers by nature, and this promises to be a stand-up affair. After his performance at EFC 12, I am excited to see Iakobidze back in the Hexagon especially against an opponent who is likely to stand and trade.
