On a weekend with plenty of violence, Dennis Fränberg may have stolen the show in his first professional fight.
Saturday evening at AFN 6 in Solna, Sweden, Fränberg made his professional debut against fellow debutant Josef Al-Zubeidy, and Fränberg got his career off to a perfect start by delivering a thunderous right hand that face-planted Al-Zubeidy in almost comical fashion.
Check out the nasty knockout below.
Though this was Fränberg’s professional debut, he has a number of amateur bouts to his name, amassing a 3-5 record since starting MMA in 2020.
Al-Zubeidy has several amateur fights to his name as well, with only a 1-3 record.
The two were previously scheduled to face each other in an amateur contest in 2023, but that fight fell through. Instead, they made their professional debuts on Saturday, and now Al-Zubeidy could be rethinking his decision to turn pro.
