2 October is EFC fight night at Carnival City

Carnival City plays host to EFC 34 on Thursday, 2 October 2014. Striking specialist Sibusiso `The Monster` Mdoko challenges the champion Leon `Iron Lion` Mynhardt for the lightweight title. Mdoko, the showman from Cape Town, is a crowd favourite with an impressive finishing record. `The Monster` has put away all three of his last opponents and has never been finished.
Another must-see-clash is between Francois `Franaconda` Groenewald and the most dominant athlete in EFC history, Demarte `The Wolf` Pena, for EFC Gold. Pena is renowned for his grappling based fighting style. Groenewald is a world bronze Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu medalist.
