Fightstar 11 delivered explosive bouts on Saturday, at St John’s Hellenic Hall, corner of Lobeilia and Wychwood roads.<\/p>\n
Fight fans witnessed first-class mixed martial arts (MMA) action as the fighters showed off their skills and abilities.<\/p>
Kick-starting the night was Dirk Swanepool against Sheldon Victor in the lightweight bout.<\/p>\n
One could say it ended before it started, with Victor winning by submission with a guillotine choke in less than 30 seconds into the first round.<\/p>
The second bout saw Simon Harle take on Ronnie Thompson in the light heavyweight division.<\/p>\n
This fight was another short one, which saw Harle win by a submission with a north-south arm triangle choke, also in less than 30 seconds into the first round.<\/p>\n
The next bout, middleweight division, was the first full fight of the night, with Rocky Muabu going against Danny Baptista in the hexagon.<\/p>\n
Although both men were not afraid to engage, it seems Muabu’s decision to work on Baptista’s ribs worked in his favour, as he won by a unanimous decision.<\/p>\n
The featherweight bout between Orlando Mashaba and Thumelo Ramafoko was won by Mashaba through a split decision.<\/p>\n
The fifth fight saw Albert Steyn and Stephen Goncalves showing off their skills in the hexagon.<\/p>\n

The next fight, which was between Leon White and Fortuna Kwabe, saw White winning via unanimous decision.<\/p>\n
Another middleweight division bout took place between Dimitri Fogg and Roedolf Van Heerden.<\/p>\n
