The undefeated prospect out of Rumble sports has been called the “best fighter I’ve trained ever” by Tue Trnka. He is turned pro in 2013 and stopped both opponents in the first with the European MMA promotion, before getting a decision victory at Trophy MMA 4 last August. The Dane will get a stiff test from American challenger Nate “The Train” Landwehr (5-1), who is on a three fight winning streak.

The UCL is a US/Canadian based Mixed Martial Arts promotion broadcasting to over 120 million homes in North and South America, Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. They will have their debut event in Scandinavia with the UCL Combat XXIII card at the DGI BYEN in Copenhagen, Denmark.
