M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Championship

M-1 Challenge 68, Juni 16 i St. Petersburg, Ryssland

(L-R) – Vyacheslav Vasilevsky & Alexander Shlemenko

ST. PETERSBURG, Ryssland (Maj 17, 2016) – Former M-1 Challenge light heavyweight and middleweight champion Vyacheslav Vasilevsky (28-4-0, M-1: 10-2-0) has stepped up to replace injured Ramadan Emeev mot Alexander “Storm” Shlemenko (52-9-0, M-1: 3-0-0) in the final of the M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Tournament, innertaket

M-1 Challenge 68, Juni 16 at Yubileyny Sports Palace in St. Petersburg, Ryssland.

Emeev (14-3-0, M-1: 8-1-0) suffered a torn ligament in his elbow during training camp. In a M-1 Challenge Grand Prix Middleweight Tournament semifinals match last February, Vasilevsky lost a majority decision to Shlemenko in the M-1 Challenge 64 Fight of the Night.

“We were in a very difficult situation after Ramazan Ochmeev got injured,” M-1 Global presidenten Vadim Finkelchtein förklarade. “The whole event was in jeopardy. Så, nu, we’re grateful to Vyacheslav Vasilevsky for agreeing to step in and face Shlemenko in our M-1 Grand Prix finals being held on his (Vasilevsky) födelsedag.

“Due to our contract obligations, we were unable to postpone the event because it is officially included in the St. Petersburg Ochconomic Forum, which is something every one of our fighters knew from the very beginning. There’s a paragraph in the Grand Prix fighters’ contract stating we can use one of the guys who fought in the semifinals of the tournament in case someone gets injured. Now we’re making one of the most anticipated rematches in the history of Russian MMA.”

M-1 Challenge tungvikt Alexander “Drago” Volkov (25-6-0, M-1: 9-3-0) will make his first title defense against Attila “Pumuklo” Vegh (29-6-2, M-1: 0-0-0) på M-1 Challenge 68. A match between Russian middleweight Valery “Den ryska Hammer” Myasnikov (10-1-1, M-1: 1-1-1) and Spanish veteran Enoc Löser Torres (18-9-0, M-1: 5-6-0) has also been announced for the June 16^th kort.

“Den M-1 Challenge 68 event is going to be huge,” Finkelchtein added. “We’re stacking the card with Alexander Volkov vs Attila Vegh fighting in an M-1 Challenge heavyweight title fight. The Grand Prix winner, Shlemenko still gets $50,000. As for Ramazan Ochmeev, we will put efforts into arranging his fight with Alexander Shlemenko this fall, if Shlemenko is still fighting in Russia. Emeev versus Shlemenko will provide the answer to all of the questions MMA fans still arguing about.”
