A new chapter in the history of EFC was written at Sibaya Casino and Entertainment Kingdom on Saturday, 10 June 2017, when Durban’s Amanda ‘Mad Dog’ Lino took the inaugural EFC women’s flyweight title, defeating Pretoria’s ‘Demolition’ Jacqui Trosee. Durban’s faithful gathered in the sold out Sibaya Sun Park to witness the title fight.
Lino kicked the fight off with her trademark aggression, causing significant damage to the face of Trosee with on point punches and ground and pound. But Trosee was tenacious, absorbing the punishment and keeping ‘Mad Dog’ on her toes with tough counter punches.
Lino had a clear advantage over Trosee in the clinch, taking her down with slick hip throws almost at will, and the top pressure began to mount, draining Trosee. Lino was able to capitalize in the second round, sinking an armbar that forced Trosee to tap.Lino was ecstatic, thanking the Sunshine City for their support as she was crowned the first EFC women’s flyweight champion.
