LFL 2 results: Jason Wilnis cruises to debut win, upset for Ryan Spillane

LFL 2 took place Sunday evening, July 25, from a studio location in Amsterdam in the Netherlands and provided us with an action-packed event filled with knockouts, submissions, and some incredible performances. 

In the main event former GLORY middleweight champion Jason Wilnis (1-0) won his MMA debut with a first round knockout win over Denmark’s Erhan Okuroglu (1-2). The Dutch star, who holds kickboxing wins over Israel Adesanya, Alex Pereira, and Joe Schilling, looked comfortable in the cage and was never in trouble even when pressed against the cage. 

Wilnis fended off Okuroglu’s grappling, eventually separated, landed a hard combination to drop his opponent and followed up with strikes on the ground forcing the referee to step in. The 30-year-old is committed to MMA and wants to grow in Levels Fight League.

In the co-main event Olympic wrestler & African heavyweight champion Slim Trabelsi (2-0) scored a huge ground and pound win over SBG fighter & IMMAF heavyweight champion Ryan Spillane (0-1).

Trabelsi, who is a main training partner to Ciryl Gane, used his wrestling to take Spillane down, control him on the ground, and finish him some big hammerfists. 

Elsewhere on the card Belgian prospect Bolaji Oki (3-1) steamrolled Dutch veteran Hyram Rodriguez (17-29), Irish prospect Caolan Loughrane (4-0) remained undefeated with a decision win over BJJ ace Hussein Abbas-Zade (0-1), Akhmed Salamov (2-1) showed us some slick grappling with a submission win over Abdoul Sowe (2-3), and Danish heavyweight wrestling champion Nasih El Arja (1-0) won his MMA debut.

The amateur undercard also provided some great entertainment with five stoppages and an insane performance from 18-year-old Carlos Zowa.
