Damn. I can’t wait to read what SST says about this. When many of you saw those insane Wolof Laamb fighting videos that emerged last year, a few called for Dana White to hold an event in Africa, while most of were confused as to why grown men in loin clothes were touching their opponent’s hands for upwards of fifteen minutes before making a move. Jokes on you. Apparently Wolof Laamb is a multi-million dollar sport that nets the winners of fights roughly around $205,000 per bout. While this may be a derivative of African MMA, one would have to look towards EFC (Extreme Fighting Championship) for their African mixed martial arts fix. On June 30th, the organization will stream EFC Africa 9 live on YouTube at 7:30pm South African Time (whenever that is) and it will be absolutely free. The only thing I really know about this new organization is they award gold rings to their champions and Riana Roberts will instantly be your new favorite ring girl, guaranteed. You can check out the promotion’s official site here for more info. [Source]
