Ricky Misholas looking to become 2 division champion

Ricky Misholas is set to face American base EFC heavyweight champion Jared Vanderaa at EFC77 in Pretoria, 16 March 2019.
Misholas had this to say on the BigAl Podcast :
“I don’t know how to explain to you, my spirit is so high. Just to prove a point, to show them that the EFC is not a stepping stone, and Africa is not a stepping stone for all of these international fighters, where they can [say], ‘Okay let me just fight two more, or three fights in the EFC, so I can go for Bellator or the UFC, or whatever, no. That’s what I’m going to prove. I want to show Vanderaa they were wrong with what they were thinking, and show the whole world that the EFC is not a stepping stone. So they come here, you know what … there is going to be a big surprise for this fight. I’m so motivated and I had a camp, as I said, it was a short-notice camp, but the thing is I pushed myself over the limit and we are looking forward to this.”
Misholas went on to pay tribute to his combat brothers of the DRC as wel as dropping a bombshell about droppingto Light Heavyweight after this bout .
