A freestyle athlete from Espoo Tuomas Grönvall suffered a unanimous points defeat at the prestigious Cage Warriors London night on Saturday.
The starting points were ungrateful, as Grönvall was invited to fight the promotion’s own British promise Ollie Sarwaa against. Sarwa has gone from victory to victory in Cage Warriors, and the balance was completed with the eighth green mark on Saturday night.
Sarwa was able to hit upright heavily during the first two rounds. After 10 minutes, Grönvall’s open forehead was cleaned at the second break.
However, the Finn, known for his fierce fitness, did not agree to give in easily. In the third set, Grönvall was able to take Sarwa to the mat and even get takedown attempts.
The Brit, however, withstood the pressure and celebrated the victory in the end. After the final set, he gave recognition in Grönvall’s direction, and the commentators of the broadcast also praised the shot.
– Great match and one really, really tough guy. Big respect, Sarwa wrote in the joint photo published by Grönvall in his Instagram story.
Grönvall’s professional statistics now have 13 wins, 10 losses and one draw.
