Verdict's Sleeper Fight of The Week: Roberto Soldic vs. Zebastian Kadestam
Ahead of ONE on Prime Video 10: Johnson vs. Moraes III, we'll look at the most slept-on banger of a fight buried in the stacked card. This week's edition is Roberto Soldic vs. Zebastian Kadestam.
These two gents have a combined 90%+ finishing rate, and out of their 34 wins, 29 are by knockout.
Roberto 'Robocop' Soldic is a product of Bosnia-Croatia fighting out of Germany. He's a brutal action striker that's proven his mettle several times. He was the KSW double champ on an incredible run that included a KO over top UFC Middleweight, Dricus du Plessis. He spoke with us one-on-one and believed that his initial fight with Dricus, a knockout loss, taught him the most he's ever learned in fighting. His style has become cleaner and more fluid, a level-up in technique. Since then, he's gone unbeaten in 8 fights and is set to make his U.S. debut against Zebastian Kadestam.
Much like the aforementioned, Zebastian Kadestam has a knack for not making it to the judges, having only seen them once in his 14 wins. He's a knockout artist through and through, with heavy enough hands to put any lights out. He finished his last two fights in ONE by first-round KO and will look to do the same again vs. Soldic.
This fight is an absolute banger that no fans should miss. Make sure you tune into it on Amazon Prime Video for Johnson vs. Moraes III.
