JAKARTA - Indonesian mixed martial arts (MMA) athlete, Jeka Saragih, will appear in the Road to UFC final in February 2023. This fight will be held in South Korea.

Jeka will face a fighter from India, Anshul Jubli. He was so confident that he could silence his opponent and win a contract from the UFC.

No kidding, thorough preparations were made. The plan is that the fighter from Simalungun, North Sumatra will fly to the United States to forge himself.

Jeka will leave for Uncle Sam's country this November. He also boasted that he would be more prepared to face the Jubilee.

"Our target is to get the opponent out of the ring," said Jeka after meeting with Menpora Zainudin Amali, Wednesday, November 9.

The athlete who is sheltered by the Batam Fighter Club asks for support and prayers from the Indonesian people. He also hopes that his training preparations will run smoothly.

"Hopefully February will be able to provide the best for the Indonesian nation," said the athlete who has been interested in martial arts since high school.

Jeka's achievement itself received appreciation from Menpora Zainudin Amali. He hopes that Jeka's achievements can provide motivation and inspiration to other young Indonesians in pursuing achievements abroad.

"Instead of channeling energy in a negative way, imitate this Jeka Saragih to fight and excel in making the Indonesian nation proud," said the Minister of Youth and Sports.
