New York (TADIAS) – Ethiopian MMA fighter Afrem Gebreanenia’s next fight is at the Victory Fighting Championships in Council Bluffs, Iowa on Friday, September 12th. Afrem lost his last match (held in Fort Riley, Kansas on July 12th) in the 3rd Round via “Rear Naked Choke.”
“It was a hard fought match and Afrem gave his all,” his manager Timothy White told Tadias Magazine. “He made a simple mistake and his opponent capitalized on it.”
Timothy adds that Afrem is already preparing for his upcoming event. “He will be looking to get back into the win column and would love for any of his fellow Ethiopians, along with general fans to support him,” He said. “Council Bluffs, Iowa is right next to Omaha, Nebraska which has a good size Ethiopian population.”
