Thus, the 'God of War' wins again after a frustrating debut against Elizeu Capoeira, in October 2021. The Frenchman now has his seventh victory via submission – the ninth of his career. The Frenchman, in fact, only suffered one setback, precisely against the Brazilian.

Stolze suffers his fifth defeat – the third in a series – and could pass the 'HR' of Ultimate with the result. Professional since 2015, the German has stood out in events across the country and also has 12 positive results.
