Wrestler Tapha Tine will compete in his first MMA fight early next year. The Baol giant will face a Thai fighter.
Reug Reug’s new world champion title in One championship has given wings to Senegalese wrestlers who are starting to enter the MMA discipline. After wrestlers such as Petit Lô, Ada Fass or Serigne Ndiaye 2, it is the turn of Tapha Tine to launch into mixed martial arts. The Baol giant who saw his MMA debut delayed due to administrative problems will this time enter the cage on February 1, 2025 against the Thai champion Benz with whom he was to cross swords in France.
« It’s the same opponent I had to face last year. The fight couldn’t take place unfortunately but I’m going to prepare to defeat him. My goal is to bring the championship belt back to Senegal. There’s no secret, I have to work hard to get there » said Tapha Tine on Éric Favre TV.
Note that the fight between Tapha Tine and Benz will take place in Lomé, Togo.
