Fernand Lopez's heavyweight prospect Dave Fotsing wins pro debut in 46 seconds

Dave Fotsing, a 23-year-old heavyweight trained by Fernand Lopez, made his professional MMA debut with a first-round finish over Luis Carlos de Brito (6-13) in just 46 seconds. Fotsing gained public attention a year ago when footage of his sparring sessions with Ciryl Gane was released. The post also notes that another former Lopez prospect, Marcel Sychev, has not fought in a year and a half since his RCC appearance, but signed with Daniel Rubinstein's management company in September, joining a roster that includes Petr Yan, Arman Tsarukyan, and Rafael Fiziev.
