FFC 35 Highlights: Egli and Holt Battle For FFC Welterweight Title!

In the main event of FFC 35, Ben Egli sought to defend his FFC welterweight crown for the first time, taking on Ohio’s Joey Holt.

The title matchup featured a clash of styles, with Egli renowned for his jiu-jitsu resumé that had yielded nine submission victories. Holt himself has a well-rounded game but it’s the power in his hands that has brought five knockouts and earned him the nickname of “The Hitman”.
