Emeka Ifekandu Hoping to Get on Dana White’s Contender Series with Win at LFA 25
After a largely successful amateur career, bantamweight prospect Emeka Ifekandu feels like he’s performing even better since he turned pro earlier this year.
In four fights in 2017, Ifekandu has won all of his bouts, including finishes in three of them.
“For some reason the first four fights have been different from all my other fights,” Ifekandu told MMAWeekly.com.
“I had my last amateur fight last year and I won a belt, and it was eight months before I fought again. I don’t know what happened to me during this time, but I was a different fighter from when I was fighting last. It was like I was on a whole different level.”
Ifekandu has enjoyed being as active as he can be this year, and wants to continue to be so as he moves forward with his career, as he has no fear of wear and tear slowing him down.
“I was planning after this fight if the UFC signs me that they would have to let me fight every two months,” said Ifekandu. “That’s what I plan to put on my contract. I don’t want to weight six months or eight months – that’s not going to happen. I love being this busy.
