# Czech MMA fighter Viktor Pešta failed in his premiere under the baton of the PFL organization. He didn’t even cut against the former top UFC midfielder Omar Akhmedov and got a formidable knockout in the 2nd minute of the opening round. For Pest, this match is his first career loss in the semi-heavyweight, in which he was the Octagon champion before entering the PFL. He did not have time to show what Viktor Pest is the best Viktor Pest has been known since the beginning of his career as a purely one-sided fighter who, if he had any chance to succeed in his matches, only across the country. Although he significantly improved his posture skills in the world-famous Sanford MMA at Florida, he continued to dominate his rivals, mainly due to wrestling and grappling. He could not show any of these martial arts in the match with Akhmedov, who bet on the back floats from the beginning and was not afraid to go to any shootings. After a few boxing exchanges, it was clear that Pest could not cope with the Dagestan opponent, and the only question after the first minute was when he would try a takedown for the first time. However, the former member of the top 15 UFC middle weight did not even let him go, and just before the start of the second half of the 2nd minute the Czech fighter was hit hard. Pest began to be on his feet, which Akhmedov immediately took advantage of and sent the former Oktagon champion to the ground by a rear overhand. It’s not over yet The PFL pyramid system for the million dollars that the winner gets doesn’t exclude Viktor Pest from the fight. In it, the fighters collect points, with any victory being awarded three points, and a possible ending adds points according to the speed of the ending. So Akhmedov scored 6 points in the table by finishing in the 1st round. At the end of the season, the individual points of the fighters add up and the quartet of the most successful semi-heavy weights will be drawn into the pyramid by a million US dollars. Due to the fact that the gala evening of the PFL, at which Pest lost from Wednesday to Thursday night, was the beginning of a new season, not all chances are over for the Czech fighter. However, Pest’s next match will not be so easy, as he will have to take a forced break from the match after a brutal knockout. However, he can still speak into the fight for a place in the pyramid, even though his debut turned out to be the worst he could.
