The finalists for SBS' 'Pure Fighter' SFC Tournament quarterfinals have been decided.
In 'Pure Fighter', which aired on the 8th, a final death match was held between the lower ranked challengers to determine who would advance to the quarterfinals of the tournament. In the 'Sexy Mammy' team, 'Sandbag' and 'Haeundae Malbokji', who were called the real-life version of 'The Glory', and 'Gimpo Mammy' and 'Little Choo Seong-hoon' were the lightweight match, and in the heavyweight match, 'Oh Man-man' and 'Songpa Policeman'. The match was concluded. In the 'Super Zombie' team, the lightweight 'oriental boxer' competed against 'Hwaseong Jjang'.
The challengers clearly seemed perplexed by the cruel rules of 'Death Match', where yesterday's colleagues become today's enemies. In particular, Sandbag, who was the first match runner, felt pressured to face off against Haeundae Malbeokji, who was the captain of the same team, and played passively. On the other hand, Haeundae Malbeokji made people laugh by revealing their true feelings, saying, “They hit me so hard that I’m crying without even looking at my face.”
Kim Dong-hyun coolly advised the faltering Sandbag, saying, “If you lose this, you won’t advance to the quarterfinals.” Afterwards, Sandbag attacked based on his unique ‘gang’ and won. 'Little Choo Seong-hoon' defeated Gimpo Mammy based on his solid fundamentals, and the final death match between Sandbag and Little Choo Seong-hoon was decided.
The first round was an overwhelming match for Little Choo Seong-Hoon. Little Choo Seong-hoon tried a takedown, took the lead in attack points, and put pressure on the punching bag with wrestling defense techniques. As the game was about to go downhill, Kim Dong-hyun woke up Sandbag by saying, “Sandbag, are you going to go home like this?” Sandbag said, “I saw the faces of my parents and teammates,” and showed a 180-degree change in the second round.
Little Choo Seong-hoon quickly became tired as his punching accuracy decreased, but the punching bag did not miss this and took the lead in the attack. The result was an overwhelming decision victory. The punching bag that overcame the trauma of being a victim of school violence and miraculously qualified for the quarterfinals was a drama itself.
In addition, in the sexy cicada team heavyweight 'Oh Man VS Songpa Policeman' match, Oman won, and in the Super Zombie team lightweight 'oriental boxer' vs 'Hwaseong Jjang' match, Hwaseong Jjang confirmed his advancement to the quarterfinals.
As a result, 'Pure Fighter', which has confirmed the quarterfinalists for each team's weight class, will hold the SFC Survival Tournament with a total prize money of 50 million won starting from the broadcast on the 15th.
