On Saturday night November 16 ’19 Oguzhan Yalcin wins the BFL Featherweight MMA Title by unanimous decision from Posener’s MMA Vancouver.
The fight went the distance and Oguzhan largely exerted his game plan in the fight. He fought a very tough and good opponent from Tristar Gym, who was well schooled in all aspects of MMA. Oguzhan having a wrestling advantage was able to dictate where the fight went and was successful in takedowns, controlling position, landing ground and pound and achieving the mount on a number of occasions.

Having trained at Posener’s MMA Vancouver for almost a year and having 4 fights in that time period amassing a record of 3-1, Oguzhan has achieved his first goal of his many objectives, with more to come, as he has high aspirations in the sport. Certainly the potential is strong and we are keen to help him with his adjustments to a new culture as he is coming from Turkey and there are some differences.

During his post fight interview, Oguzhan asked for a rematch for his title defense against Damon, who Oguzhan fought in his first match where he lost by a close decision in a very competitive fight. The fight was certainly close and a title defense in this situation could be good and a reasonable suggestion.
 
In the future, we are looking forward to having more time for skill development in the integration of striking, wrestling and Jiu-jitsu skills and strength and conditioning to help Oguzhan achieve his potential. It will be an exciting challenge and good to move forward in the journey.
