Josefine Knutsson looks set to get a quick chance to fix her Oktagon debut. According to Kimura, the Swedish strawweight shared on her Instagram story, via her coach, that she will fight at Oktagon's show in Hanover, Germany, on Nov. 7.
The booking rests on that post alone. No opponent has been named, and Oktagon has not announced a fight for her, so the matchup and the weight class are still unconfirmed.
Knutsson, 30, arrives after a rough first night with the promotion. She went 2-1 in the UFC before debuting for Oktagon in the spring in Liberec, Czechia, where she lost by first-round submission. Afterward she told Kimura she was in good spirits and determined to help build up Oktagon's women's strawweight division.
The Hanover card also features her countryman Samuel Bark, who is booked against Slovakia's Karol Rysavy in a featherweight bout. Like Knutsson, Bark is an experienced Muay Thai fighter. According to Kimura, the two are among several Swedes under contract with Oktagon, alongside Zebaztian Kadestam, Robin Roos and Liam Pitts.
What to watch for next: an official announcement from Oktagon confirming Knutsson's place on the card, and the name of her opponent.
