EFC 82 took place September 28th from Carnival City Casino in Brakpan, South Africa. In the night's main event Themba Gorimbo became the new welterweight champion with a first round stoppage of Luke Michael. Early in round one Gorimbo opened a really bad cut on Michael. After the doctor took a look the bout continued. Gorimbo sensing his opponent was in trouble landed vicious ground and pound and forced the ref to stop it.
