The final match of the SFC (SBS Fighting Championship) quarterfinals tournament was held on SBS' 'Pure Fighter', which aired on the 22nd.

Sexy Cicada Team Sandbag led the game with a more awakened appearance as they returned from the crisis of elimination. If Manager Choi had the upper hand in the first round, the sandbag's ground strategy worked in the second round, immobilizing Manager Choi. In the third round, which was the decisive battle, Sandbag overwhelmed Manager Choi with a series of single leg takedowns and back mounts, and finally won. Sandbag said, “I still vividly remember the last time I lifted my hand. “The first thing that came to mind was ‘my past self,’” he said, adding, “I will win everything until the finals.”
Previously, Sandbag revealed that he had experienced school violence in the past and had studied various sports such as Sambo, Judo, and Muay Thai. He said, “It means exploding a punching bag, and it also means being hit like a punching bag.” Also, “When I was in elementary school, my money was taken, I was beaten, and my pants were taken off,” he said. “There were times when I deliberately avoided going to school where the perpetrator was. Then I happened to watch TV and UFC came on. “I thought I had to do it then,” he confessed.
In addition, in the battle between the sexy cicada team 'Mr. Hongdae' and the super zombie team 'This Life is an Unfilial Son' (Lee Saengbul), Lee Saengbul was victorious.

In the battle between Team Sexy Cicada's 'One-Way Plane Ticket' and Team Super Zombie's '10,000 Won Eom Tae-gu', 10,000 Won Eom Tae-gu won.
In the match between the Suseo police officer and the monster, which was called the 'de facto final', an unexpected situation occurred. From the beginning, there was tension in the stadium due to the two's extraordinary physical movements, and commentator Lee Jae-seon also expressed his expectations, saying, "I can't predict." The Suseo police officer attempted a strong tackle attack on the monster, and in the process, the monster hit his right elbow, which had been the surgical site, hard, and a tap out was declared. In the end, the game ended with the victory of the Suseo police officer. The Suseo police officer expressed regret and said, “I hope we fight again next time,” and the monster admitted defeat, saying, “Even the injury was a result of his skill.”
