Roberto Soldic ready to get Zebaztian Kadestam out of his way: “I have to beat this guy”

Croatian mixed martial arts star Roberto Soldic is looking to beat all the top fighters in his division, beginning with former ONE welterweight world champion Zebaztian Kadestam next month.

'Robocop' will take on 'The Bandit' in a featured welterweight collision at ONE Fight Night 10 on Prime Video on May 5. It will be ONE Championship’s first-ever live on-ground event in the United States, happening at 1stBank Center in Colorado.

The contest is the second for Roberto Soldic in ONE after joining the fold with much anticipation last year. It will be in follow-up to his promotional debut back in December against Russia's Murad Ramazanov, which unfortunately ended in a no contest.

In an interview with ONE Championship, the UFD Gym fighter said he is in good shape and ready to duke it out heading into his showdown against Zebaztian Kadestam. He is also hell-bent on getting his maiden ONE victory.

‘Robocop’ said:

“I’m ready for anything. I have to beat this guy. He’s in my way. I’m in good shape. No injuries now. I feel great. Let’s do it.”

Prior to signing with ONE in the middle of last year, Roberto Soldic was one of the most sought-after free agents after he dominated the European MMA scene for the past decade.

In joining the promotion, he highlighted the many opportunities for him to grow as a fighter and that he intended to make full use of it by keeping himself busy and actively fighting.

Kadestam, for his part, is carving a path back to the top of the welterweight heap. He has won back-to-back fights and is gunning for a third straight victory in the Soldic fight.

ONE Fight Night 10 will be aired live and for free to all North American fans with an active Prime Video subscription.
