In a decision victory, he beat local Estonian fighter Ott Remmerin. “I really want to continue boxing. This was a positive experience, even though I was very nervous”. says Hirvikangas to iltasanomat.fi shortly after the bout.
The 30 year old grappler will go back to MMA at Fight Night Finland (FNF) 9 for a headlining bout versus Englishman James Pennington (10-2) on April 25th at the Kupittaan Urheiluhalli in Turku.
