Following groundbreaking news regarding Eckerlin. - Remarkable surge in ticket sales for iconic MMA event!
Five years ago, MMA fighters like Christian Eckerlin (37), Christian Jungwirth (37), and Max Coga (34) were only known to hardcore martial arts fans. But now, they have a massive following, with hundreds of thousands of people connecting with them on social media. And this trend is skyrocketing!
Mixed martial arts has surpassed boxing in Germany and crazy events, especially those hosted by OKTAGON MMA, are filling the biggest halls across the country. In December 2023, the Lanxess Arena in Cologne (20,000 seats) was packed to capacity.
An epic event is about to happen
On October 12, something extraordinary, something historical is about to happen. "OKTAGON 61" will take place at "Deutsche Bank Park" in Frankfurt/Main.
55,000 fans are expected to witness the biggest German MMA event ever in Eintracht Frankfurt's soccer stadium - a first! Crazily, 30,000 tickets were snapped up in the first week after they went on sale.
Only two other similar European events have taken place in history - both in Warsaw's National Stadium and attended by 56,000 people.
Right now, OKTAGON MMA is the biggest and most popular organization in Europe. Founders Pavol Neruda and Ondřej Novotny have rejuvenated the German MMA scene through their events and strong presence on Instagram and YouTube.
The main focus of OKTAGON MMA's German invasion is primarily on Eckerlin and Jungwirth, who enjoy an army of supporters. The stadium event will see these two warriors go head-to-head in a battle to decide the "true king of Germany." Fans of both fighters will have designated areas in the soccer arena.
Coga will also fight there. For the first time ever with OKTAGON MMA. His opponent has not been announced yet.
