This year’s overseas organization season began for him like a horror movie. Viktor Pest, in an effort to win the title and a fabulous reward in the amount of one million dollars (almost 23 million crowns), stumbled significantly on the first hurdle. At the premiere in the PFL, he fell after a minute and a half, knocked out by the experienced Omari Achmedov. With this overwhelming victory, the Dagestan won six points in the table.

Thirty-one-year-old Pest still has nothing easy to expect. The former OKTAGON MMA semi-heavyweight champion will face Australian Rob Wilkinson, who has lost only twice out of sixteen matches. At the same time, he recorded both defeats in the prestigious UFC, where at first he was not enough for Siyar Bahadurzad, after which he lost to the champion Israel Adesany. He has so far won one match in the PFL, he managed to beat the Brazilian Bruce Sout in the second round of the TKO.

“All the hard work is behind me. Now just relax and wait for your moment, “Pest informed on his social networks.
–
The Czech beater will have to win the first round at all costs (under certain circumstances, a victory in the second round for five points might be enough.), But even that may not be enough for him to advance to the playoffs. It was the victory in the first five-minute game that would bring Pest six points to the table, which would equal several opponents. If the Czech wrestler fails to advance, the season ends for him.
