"Phil De Fries right now. A former UFC talent himself, England's De Fries went 2-3 inside the octagon, and had a few troubles after hitting the regional scene. Having conquered personal demons and turned his career around, however, he has not lost since 2017, compiling a 15-fight win streak that includes victories over UFC veterans Todd Duffee, Darko Stosic, and Augusto Sakai among others."
"He's now made 11 successful title defenses of his KSW heavyweight strap, an impressive feat regardless of promotion. At KSW 111, he'll look to make it an even dozen when he takes on Stefan Vojcak, who has won three fights (including one of Stosic) to make it to a title shot. The light heavyweight title will also be on the line when the Polish promotion heads into the Czech Republic on Saturday."
Francis Ngannou has fought just once since leaving the UFC, making elite heavyweights outside the UFC scarce. Phil De Fries has emerged as the best heavyweight outside the UFC, compiling a 15-fight win streak since 2017. De Fries previously went 2-3 in the UFC and struggled regionally before turning his career around and conquering personal demons. The KSW heavyweight champion has 11 successful title defenses and faces Stefan Vojcak at KSW 111 as he seeks a twelfth defense. Vojcak arrives with three wins, including a victory over Darko Stosic. KSW 111 also features a light heavyweight title fight and streams live via KSWtv.
