Joachim Hansen now has an opponent for his featherweight title bout as Superior Challenge 11 heads to the AXA Sports Center in Södertälje Sweden on November 29.  The Norwegian legend will face the Brazilian Diego Nunes.  Hellboy is no stranger to Superior Challenge as he competed for the promotion back in 2010, where he submitted Sami Aziz in the second round.  Nunes is no stranger to Sweden, as he battled Dennis Siver back in 2012 at the UFC in Stockholm #2.  Superior Challenge announced the bout today, along with ticket sales.

Hansen-Nunes-Main-Event

“I’ve always been a big fan of Joachim “Hellboy” Hansen and to get to announce a title bout on this level, against none other than Diego “The Gun” Nunes is really great for the organization. We have tried for several years to match Joachim against the reigning titleholder Jameel Massouh but since it was not possible for various reasons, the title has now become vacant until after the bout on November 29. Jameel is an amazing athlete and a true champion, and therefore he is welcome to take on the reigning titleholder when he feels ready. The expectations for this bout between Joachim Hansen vs Diego Nunes are great and considering these two gladiator’s fighting style, I can virtually guarantee fireworks in the cage. We are incredibly proud to present this bout and today at 13 pm (CET) Tickets will be released on ticnet.se so don’t forget to buy yours in time. I hope to see you at Superior Challenge 11 in Södertälje on November 29 at AXA Sports Center.” – Babak Aghavali, CEO Group International
