Matrix Fight 15 will elect a new bantamweight champion for India's premier MMA organization, pitting interim champion Chungreng Koren against the powerful Kantharaj Agasa. The former champion, Uloomi Karim, vacated the belt earlier this year, and Koren and Agasa represent the two best bantamweights in India.
In the co-main event, two super-prospects in the featherweight division compete against each other, feared power-puncher Shyam Anand battles the young wrestler Rahul Thapa. Anand is coming off an unsuccessful title shot against Sanjeet Budhwar, but still right at the top of many peoples' top prospect lists. Thapa has been slowly rising through the division, and takes a big step up against Anand.
Two 6-0 prospects also face major tests to see if they can hang at the top of their divisions, as Arshiyan Memon fight Govind Ale Singh, and Mridul Saika takes on Himanshu Kaushik.
The whole event streams on Disney+ Hotstar in India and on YouTube below everywhere else.
