CHELYABINSK, Russia (Maggio 30, 2018) – Greece-born flyweight Chris “The Greek Kelades” Kelades (12-3-0, M-1: 1-0-0), fighting out of Dartmouth, Canada, takes on Ukrainian fighter Alexander Pletenko (13-4-0, M;1: 0-0-0) this Friday night on the M-1 sfida 93 carta principale, a Chelyabinsk, Russia.
Kelades made his successful M-1 Global debut last November at M-1 Challenge 86, quando ha sconfitto Oleg Lichkovakha per mezzo di una trasmissione terzo turno (Kimura).
It’s been more than a half- year since your M-1 Global debut. Why did you take such a long break?
CK: “It’s hard to believe it’s been that long. I was supposed to fight back in March, but I had problems getting my travel visa secured, so I was rebooked to fight in April but, per sfortuna, the event was canceled. Così, I’ve been ready to fight, but circumstances have changed the dates. I’m excited for this fight and looking forward to fighting in Chelyabinsk. Two times my fights have been canceled and it was extremely frustrating, but it gave me more time to work on my game and learn new techniques.”
In your M-1 Global debut, you have been very cautious during the first two rounds, but in the third round you got a submission. Is it your real fighting style or did you just wanted to win the debut fight without taking risks?
CK: Ogni combattimento è diverso. Sometimes in a new environment it takes longer to feel the fight start and you have to read the opponent before you react too aggressively.”
What can you say about your next opponent, Alexander Pletenko? You have similar records. Does it mean you have similar fighting styles?
CK: “I’ve seen some of his fights and I don’t think we have similar styles. I’ve been fighting the best guys in the world and at a certain level it’s more difficult to finish fights.”
Before joining M-1 Global you had never fought anywhere except North America. What does it feel like to fight half a world away from your home?
CH: “I really enjoyed myself the last time in my debut with M-1 Global. The travel is a little bit of a hassle with the distance, but I really enjoy fighting internationally and here in Russia. I like fighting away because I enjoy having to prove myself to other fighters and the fans. Mi motiva!”

CHELYABINSK, Russia (Maggio 29, 2018) – Campione imbattuto dei pesi medi M-1 Challenge Artem Frolov (10-0-0, M-1: 7-0-0) defends his title for the first time this Friday against American favorite Joe “diesel” Riggs (47-17-1, M-1: 2-0-1) nel M-1 sfida 93 evento co-presentato, a Chelyabinsk, Russia.
Frolov has knocked out four of his opponents and submitted four others. Last October, Frolov captured the belt by defeating UFC veteran Caio Magalhaes, del Brasile, by unanimous decision and he needed a break to heal his injuries.
Artem Frolov (L) puts his perfect record and M-1 Challenge middleweight title belt on the line this Friday against Joe “diesel” Riggs
In 2016 you had three fights and last year you fought only twice. How many fights a year would you like to have in the future?
AF: “I would like to fight three times a year. I think this is the best number because it lets me have enough time for good recovery after fights and enough time for training camps. Naturalmente, there are also some distraction factors, which do not let me fight more often like, per esempio, some amateur competitions where I fight from time to time.”
Your title fight against Caio Magalhaes was a hard trial for you. How difficult was that 25- minute brawl?
AF: “I knew the fight was going to be a tough confrontation because Caio is a great fighter with excellent striking skills. Tuttavia, during the fight I found the best way to fight him and saw how I could get the victory. He impressed me with his firmness; he did not quit after I delivered many hard punches, so I must admit he has a big heart.”
When did you learn that you were going to fight Joe Riggs? What can you say about his skills?
AF: “Even before the title fight I knew that, if I won the belt, my first title defense would be against Joe Riggs. He drew my attention with his debut fight in M-1 Global. I checked his record, took a look at the list of the guys he had defeated, and understood that sooner or later we were going to meet in The Rage.
“Naturalmente, in the last few months, I watched many of the Diesel’s fights. His main advantage is his experience, he has five times more fights than me. Riggs is a well-rounded fighter, his wrestling skills together with the excellent control skills on the ground, and powerful ground-and- pound are probably his main strengths. Così, he is definitely a fighter of the ‘American school’.”
After capturing the title, you were mentioned among the top 20 best prospects in the world by the famous MMA magazine Fighters Only. What does it feel?
AF: I was flattered to be mentioned in the best prospects list, especially by a respected magazine like Fighters Only. Such recognition proves that you dedicate your life to MMA for a reason and that you have really achieved something. But I know that I have much work to do and a lot of things in my game to improve.”
Two weeks after your fight against Riggs there will be a contender fight between Mikhail Ragozin and Valery Myasnikov. Who do you think will be the winner? Which one of them would you like to fight?
AF: “I am acquainted with both these guys, so I would not like to fight either of them. I can’t say who is going to win this fight because they are both strong athletes and have their advantages. In my opinion the one who will have better cardio will win the fight.
“I would prefer to fight only the strongest foreigners, not fellow countrymen. You travel around the country, have camps in different places, make friends and one day you are told that you are fighting one of them. That is not the best feeling, trust me, so I’d like to fight the best athletes from other countries, so I can fight not only for myself, my gym and my city, but for the country, defending the honor of the national flag.”
You have the same number of wins by knockouts and submissions in your record. How would you like to end the upcoming fight?
AF: “I came to MMA as a wrestler, so it makes me happy that I am getting better at striking. Tuttavia, it feels great to win via submission as well, especially when it is a beautiful one. Infatti, any finish is awesome, because my family and friends are worried about me during the fight and I don’t like to make them worry too long. Così, I prefer to finish the fights early.

Sergei Kharitonov vs. Anton Vyazigin declared
“Nessun Contesto”

M-1 Challenge flyweight champion |
Aleksander Doskalchuk is now the undisputed M-1 Challenge flyweight champion

SAN PIETROBURGO, Russia (Maggio 25, 2018) – Last night’s SuperFight between Russian heavyweight star Sergei Kharitonov and his main event challenger, Anton Vyazigin, was declared a “no contest” e Alexander Doskalchuk established himself as the undisputed M-1 Challenge flyweight champion last night at M-1 sfida 92 a M-1 Arena a San Pietroburgo, Russia.
Kharitonov (27-6-0) originally was declared the winner by way of a second-round technical decision over his Russian opponent, Vyazigin (9-2-0), due to an illegal eye poke that prevented Kharitonov from continuing to fight.
The result was later changed to a “no contest” after the commission, assembled by M-1 Global president Vadim Finkelchtein, reviewed the fight video and made the decision to change the result. A rematch will be scheduled for one of the next events, likely M-1 sfida 95: Battaglia nelle montagne, which will happen in July in Ingushetia, Russia.
“A ‘no contest’ was the only possible decision in this situation,” Finkelchtein explained the change. “It was an accident and yesterday the judges made the decision according to the rules, giving the victory to Kharitonov, based on the scorecards. But this fight was an exception.”
“Changing the result to ‘no contest’ is the best choice,” Kharitonov agreed. “This was not the victory I wanted. I was sure the fight would be ruled as no contest, so I was surprised when the referee raised my hand. Anton did not want to poke me, so I think the decision now is fair. In the hospital I was told I’ve got an eye contusion and corneal abrasion. I hope to recover fast and get a rematch.”
Sergei Kharitonov (R) didn’t agree with the original decision declaring him the winner.
“I think ‘no contest’ is a fair result,” Vyazigin added. “I was sure that after that poke, Sergei would take a break, and then we will go on. But the fight was stopped and he was declared the winner. Talking about corneal abrasion, I have no idea how it could happen. I always cut my nails before fights and the referee checks that, so that is weird. Naturalmente, Voglio una rivincita, our story has not ended.”
Doskalchuk (9-1-0), combattimento da Ucraina, entered The Rage as the M-1 Challenge flyweight champion to take on M-1 Challenge Interim flyweight titlist Arman Ashimov (8-3-1), del Kazakistan. Ashimov was unable to continue after two rounds due to a hand injury.
Brazilian welterweight Tiago “Bahia” Varejao (27-5-1) ha realizzato un impressionante debutto M-1, taking a majority decision from former M-1 Challenge title challenger Sergey Romanov (14-3-0).
Giga Impostazione lashvili (9-4-0) was disqualified in the third round for “rope grabbing” against undefeated Russian light heavyweight Khadis Ibragrimov (4-0-0).
Russian lightweight Pavel Gordeev (11-1-0) took a split decision victory from Mickael “Ragnar” Lebout (17-9-2), della Francia.
Sulla scheda preliminare, pesi massimi russo Maksim Baruzdin (1-0-0) won his pro debut, stopping Cuban giant Freddi Gonzales (0-2-0) in the opening round via punches, Russo prospettiva leggero Alexey “Phenomenal” Ilyenko (8-0-0) all'altezza del suo soprannome, remaining undefeated by unleashing a barrage of kicks and punches for a third-round knockout of Helson Henriques (9-6-1), of Angola.
Peso piuma del Kirghizistan Azibek Satibaldiev (7-4-0) was disqualified in the second round for kicking a grounded fighter, German challenger Saba Bolaghi (9-1-1), Piuma russo Mikhail Kuznetson (6-4-1) used a guillotine choke to submit fellow countryman Nikita Solonin (4-2-0) in due round, and Ukrainian bantamweight Ludwig Sholinyan (2-0-1) ealexander Osetrov (4-0-1) fought to a three-round majority draw.
Georgian welterweight Amiran Gogoladze (6-1-0) won a three-round split decision over Russian Taymuraz Guriev, mentre Ruslan Shamilov (5-0-0) kept his undefeated intact with a three-round split decision versus Denis Tiuliulin (3-4-0) in a battle between Russian middleweights.

Il 37-year-old Kharitonov ha sconfitto un Chi è Chi di alcuni dei migliori pesi massimi combattenti di MMA, Compreso Alister Overeem, Andrei Arlovski, Fabricio Werdum e Pedro Rizzo.
Kharitonov ha avuto un paio di ultime parole prima che l'azione inizia ufficialmente:
Sergey, Hai avuto 33 professionale MMA durante la vostra carriera e ora siete 37 anni. Qual è la vostra motivazione in MMA? Perché continui combattimenti?
SK: “Fighting è diventato una parte essenziale della mia vita. Ho letteralmente non posso vivere senza di essa. Io amo le nuove sfide, e questo è il motivo per cui competere a diversi eventi e ora, per esempio, Ho una nuova sfida: due lotte in una settimana. Domani ho una lotta MMA a M-1 sfida 92 e in una settimana, Ho un incontro di kickboxing in programma.
“Questa è la vita e dobbiamo prendere dei rischi, perché nessun rischio, nessuna ricompensa. Così, Sono pronto per questa. MMA è la mia passione, ma io amo kickboxing, troppo, e ora sono interessati a competere in entrambi gli sport.”
Si dice che per pesi massimi l'età di 35 è il primo, perché questo è il momento in cui i pesi massimi sono di solito abbastanza esperti, ma ancora in forma. Cosa ne pensi?
SK: “Tutto dipende. Un combattente può raggiungere la sua privilegiata 25, un altro a 35, ma, secondo me, dipende dalla sua coscienza. Date un'occhiata a alcuni pugili come George Foreman, che ha combattuto fino all'età di 48. Anche nelle divisioni più leggeri ci sono molti esempi di vecchi combattenti di successo come Bernard Hopkins e anche Floyd Mayweather Jr., che non che il giovane è oggi. Se si mantiene duro allenamento, si può lottare per un lungo periodo di tempo.”
Solo due volte nella tua carriera hai vinto con decisione. Come accade che hai finito quasi tutti i tuoi avversari?
SK: “Ho sempre guardare il mio avversario; se lui mi dà l'opportunità di finirlo, lo faccio. Non mi importa come mi vincere battaglie e non ho alcun obiettivo di finire i miei avversari. L'unica cosa che conta davvero è la vittoria.”
Anton Vyazigin ha il potere nelle sue mani. Avete un piano per la lotta imminente o avete bisogno di uno?
SK: “Il mio stile di combattimento dipende dalla situazione, ma credo che domani ci accingiamo ad avere una lotta stand-up. In questa fase della mia carriera, Io in realtà non cambio il mio campo di addestramento per i nuovi avversari. Ho praticamente esperienza, così posso basta inserire La Rabbia e fare quello che devo fare. Tuttavia, Io di solito guardo i miei avversari’ combattimenti. Ho visto due scontri di Vyazigin e posso dire che lui è un grande atleta giovane con pugni pesanti. Sono molto emozionato perché mi rende felice che i giovani ragazzi come lui sono pronto a sostituire noi. Chissà quanto tempo ci rimane, un anno, due, tre, forse anche cinque? Questi ragazzi hanno una lunga carriera davanti e devono continuare a crescere e mostrare il loro meglio!”

SAN PIETROBURGO, Russia (Maggio 22, 2018) – M-1 Challenge Interim flyweight champion Arman Ashimov takes on M-1 Challenge flyweight title-holder Alexander Doskalchuk(8-1-0, M-1: 2-0-0) questo Giovedi (Maggio 24) to determine the “undisputed” king of the M-1 Global flyweights, nel M-1 sfida 92 evento co-presentato, at M-1 Arena in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Ashimov (8-2-1, M-1: 3-0-0), who captured his Interim crown at M-1 sfida 87 last February,
Stopping Mikael Silander in round two voa punches, answered a series of M-1 Global questions:
Arman, how did the M-1 Challenge interim flyweight title change your life?
AA: “I was extremely happy to become the champion, but I would not say I felt such a big difference. Kazakhs knew me well even before I won the title, but after I won the belt, media started to pay more attention to me. It’s hard to say whether I won more fans because I had so many of them in Kazakhstan, but I hope that now in other countries there are more people who love the way I fight. People often recognize me on the streets of Kazakhstan, support me, ask for selfies. But I don’t feel like a star. I’m just a simple guy. Such attention does not bother me, because all Kazakhs are my relatives, how can I deny a selfie?
What is the secret of your knockout punch? Was it your goal to train such a hard punch?
AA: “It’s the will of Allah. We did not change the training plan, have been training striking and grappling as always. I am ready to go the full five round distance, se necessario. I am strong enough for the 25-minute fight and this is exactly what I always have in mind. We consider an opportunity to go somewhere for training camp, but now I need to fulfil the target, and win the undisputed title.
Not many people know about it, but you are a great grappler. Can you tell us about your grappling experience?
AA: “Infatti, I don’t talk much about it, but I have some experience in grappling as well. The thing is that in The Rage, I don’t like grappling, I prefer a stand-up fight. If my opponent wants to check my skills, I will demonstrate them. I am a combat jiu-jitsu master of sports of international class for a reason, after all.”
What can you say about your opponent Aleksander Doskalchuk?
AA: “Aleksander Doskalchuk is a very experienced all-around fighter. His fighting style is like that of one of my previous opponents, Mikael Silander. He is good both at striking and grappling. I don’t know what game plan he is going to choose, but we will find it out very soon.”
Undoubtedly all of Kazakhstan will watch the broadcast, but will some fans of yours come to Saint Petersburg for the fight?
AA: “Many fans will come here from Kazakhstan, beside them will be a lot of Kazakhs living in Saint Petersburg, who will come to root for me. Even the Assembly of Kazakhs is going to support me. all this gives me an extra motivation!”

SAN PIETROBURGO, Russia (Maggio 21, 2018) – Il “undisputed” M-1 Challenge flyweight title bout will be on the line this Thursday (Maggio 24), when M-1 Challenge flyweight champion Alexander Doskalchuk (pictured above) and Interim titlist Arman Ashimov square off in the M-1 sfida 92 evento co-presentato, at M-1 Arena in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Doskalchuk (8-1-0, M-1: 2-0-0), combattimento da Ucraina, won his title belt last September atM-1 sfida 83, when he used a Guillotine Choke to submit Vadim Malygin nel secondo turno. Undefeated in M-1 competition, Doskalchuk won a majority decision in his M-1 debut last May, su Binh Son Le a M-1 sfida 78.
Ashimov (8-2-1, M-1: 3-0-0) earned his Interim title shot this past February by stopping Gadzhimurad Aliev e Ervani Melonio with punches, rispettivamente, in the second and first rounds. A M-1 sfida 87, the powerfully striking Kazakh punched out Mikael Silander in two rounds to capture the M-1 Challenge Interim Flyweight Championship.
Doskalchuk (pictured above) sat down on the hot seat to participate in an exclusive one-on-one conversation:
It’s been seven months since you won the title. Why did you have to take such a long break?
AD: “I had to take time to heal all my injuries. There were problems with my ankle, so I could not train and fight for a few months. Presto, we’ll see how this break will affect my performance. All my injuries are in the past and I am ready to win the upcoming fight and become the undisputed M-1 Challenge flyweight champion.
What did you feel when you were told an interim title was to be introduced?
AD: “I felt nothing. The interim title does not mean anything to me and I have concentrated only on one thing: winning my fights. It is known that Ashimov is a very fast fighter and has power in his hands. I can’t say anything about his endurance, because it all depends on the way the fight goes. We’ll see how good his endurance is very soon into our fight.”
How do you think your fight will go? Are you going to use your advantage in grappling?
AD: “I am ready for a five-round battle and, naturalmente, I will be looking for an opportunity to finish my opponent at all times. I would not say that my tactics will be focused on submissions. Take a look at my fights; I love boxing and in MMA you cannot rely on just one aspect.
Your fight against Ashimov was rescheduled from the last weekend’s show in China to May 24th in Saint Petersburg, Russia. How did it change your training plan?
AS: “I was ready to fight on May 12th, but Arman did not get his visa, so we had to change plans for the new date. Maybe it’s for the best. The flight to Saint Petersburg is easier and faster than to China. By the way, a San Pietroburgo, many more fans will come to root for me. Support is a very important part of the game and I am grateful to all the fans who will root for me at M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburg, and everybody who will hold their fingers crossed watching the broadcast!”

DI: “Il mio campo di addestramento non era diverso da qualsiasi altro campo. Come sempre, Ho avuto molte sessioni di combattimento, lottato molto, ed è stato incentrato sulla formazione funzionale. In generale, era solo un altro campo. Mi sono allenato a casa a Cherepovets, perché questo è il mio posto. Ho buoni rapporti con combattenti di molte palestre, ma non ho mai andato da nessuna parte a un campo di addestramento. Non ho abbastanza soldi per andare all'estero per un campo, lavoro per me stesso.
Mi sento di formazione agio nella mia palestra. Ho una grande squadra, tra cui alcuni pesi massimi, e abbiamo sempre aiutiamo a vicenda. Se ho una lotta programmata, ragazzi mi aiutano; se alcuni altri ragazzi hanno lotte, che tutti noi li aiutiamo.”
Quanto si pesare per la lotta?
DI: “Credo che questa volta sarà di almeno 265 libbre prima che la lotta, forse anche un po 'più pesante. Non direi che sono enormi, ci sono molti ragazzi più grandi di me. Quando ero bambino, Ho usato per essere magro e alto e solo quando ero N nell'esercito ho iniziato ad aumentare di peso. Ora, quando sono 265 libbre. Io respiro buona, e credo che questo peso è perfetto per me.
Quali sono le sue previsioni per la lotta imminente? Hai intenzione di combattere Kharitonov in piedi o vorrebbe portarlo verso il basso?
DI: Nella nostra classe di peso, un pugno perso può porre fine alla lotta, quindi penso che abbiamo le stesse possibilità di vincere questa lotta. durante camp, ci alleniamo per tutto, così sarò pronto a combattere contro di lui in piedi, ma, se necessario, Prenderò giù, perché è molto importante in MMA per essere in grado di cambiare il piano di gioco durante il combattimento.”
ci dia i suoi pensieri sul vacante M-1 sfida per il titolo dei pesi massimi. Ti vedi come campione in un altro paio di scontri?
DI: “Ora, Mi sono concentrato sulla lotta imminente, ma, di si, sicuramente se vinco questa battaglia io sarò il No. 1 contendente dei pesi massimi. Tuttavia, Non penso a questo proposito in questo momento. Il mio obiettivo è quello di combattere gli avversari più forti e più esperti, che sono classificati in alto di me.
“Io non sto combattendo a San Pietroburgo per la prima volta e mi piace molto in competizione in questa città. Credo che alcuni fan saranno il tifo per Sergey, ma ci sarà anche un sacco di fan che mi sostengono nella M-1 Arena il 24 maggio!”
