In the main event, former Professional Fighters League and Bellator fighter Will Fleury (14-3) will look to achieve double champion status as he takes on Lazar Todev (11-6) for the vacant OKTAGON Heavyweight championship.
Fleury defeated Karlos Vemola via unanimous decision for the Light Heavyweight championship in the final OKTAGON event of 2024.
The co-main event sees two Lightweight make their OKTAGON debuts as Emilio Quissua (6-0) takes on Mateusz Duczma (3-1).
The featured bout of OKTAGON 68 features a pair of former UFC fighters. Makhmud Muradov (27-8) makes his second appearance in the promotion against Joilton Lutterbach (39-10), who didn't even get to fight inside UFC because he got bounced from the promotion after testing positive for steroids and then blatantly admitted it.
Finally, former German UFC Welterweights clash as Niklas Stolze (14-7) fights Jessin Ayari (17-6).
