The Curious Backstory Behind The Final Fight | Episode 8 | Oktagon Challenge: England vs Ireland
Спорт
Episode 8 of Oktagon Challenge: England vs Ireland as four prospects from each nation go head-to-head, continuing the age-old rivalry between the nations as the brutality of MMA meets reality tv.
Brad Pickett and Akonne Wanliss coach Team England with Shem Rock and Paddy Holohan leading Team Ireland as eight fighters battle for two spots in a blockbuster Manchester final in November.
Living together whilst also fighting each other, the teams must also face challenges designed to take the fighters outside their comfort zones, enabling fans can see the true personalities and characters behind the steely competitors.
Representing team England are George Staines, Jake McHugh, Hascen Gelezi and Beau Gavin - all looking for their big career break.
Ireland's prospects are Matthew Elliott, Denis Frimpong, Aaron McDonald and Armand Herczeg - looking to defeat their English counterparts and claim an Oktagon contract worth £25,000.
In the final episode of the series, Team Ireland's Denis Frimpong gets set to face England's George Staines on Oktagon 48's card in Manchester. We hear about the peculiar story behind the fight, how Denis has manifested this from before the series started and the difference in the two characters as they get set to face each other and claim the win for their nations.

Brilliant. I've loved every episode. Great job everyone for making this season a great watch.
If Denis loses this fight he is going straight on to one of them when trash talk goes wrong compilations 🤦🏻😂. I am rooting for him though he has giving me and my mates a laugh every week this programme was on LETS GO DENIS 🇮🇪

Unfortunately it's not happening. Oktagon is pretty dissapointed from it. They expected much better numbers and they said only 5-6 k people gonna be there. They had to close the top part of the arena due to it
This show has had excellent entertainment great fights I loved it thank you to all involved
Roll on Saturday!!!
Cannot wait for Oktogon 48.
After going on about Channel 4 all the way through the series, the actual final is not on Channel 4. Any reason why?!
How do you get on the show?
Why did channel 4 not show the final anyone have any idea
Respect Irish Lad's 💯❤☘😁👊🏻

Does Dennis Frimpong not own any of his own clothes? Why did he wear his training gear on a night out to watch the fights? What a scruff.
