M-1 Arena grand opening and M-1 Challenge 100 to highlight 21st season for M-1 Global

Dekabr 30, 2017 FNU47 Fikr qoldirish

In January the new M-1 Arena is scheduled to open in Saint Petersburg

Sankt-Peterburg, Rossiya (Dekabr 29, 2017) — The grand opening of the state-of-the-art M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburgh, in addition to the celebration of M-1 Challenge 100 later in 2018, will highlight M-1 Global’s 21^st mavsum.

Plans in 2018 also include more events, expansion into new countries and, No sifatida. 2 MMA organization in the world, to keep giving its fans world-class competition, entertaining match-ups, innovative developments and even a few surprises.

M-1 Global prezidenti Vadim Finkelchtein discussed a few of these subjects (pastga qarang) prior to the holidays.

Can you tell us about the new M-1 Arena?

VF: “M-1 Arena is an absolutely unique structure seating a maximum of 3000. It is built in the form of the Colosseum, stone and wood, with an incredible dome made of glulam, which gives the place perfect acoustics. Not only can we promote sporting events, but also music concerts. M-1 Arena allows us to have even more events and realize new ideas like, for example, a reality show. M-1 Arena will be multifunctional but martial arts will be the main form of entertainment held there.”

M-1 Challenge was more international last year in terms of showcasing more fighters from different countries like USA, Portugaliya, UK, Kanada, Janubiy Koreya, Xitoy, etc. Do you plan to expand your fighter base even more this year and, if so, what countries are you targeting for fighters?

VF: “Usually, we hire fighters from countries where our events are being broadcasted. If we have new contracts with the countries from where we don’t have representative fighters, or only have a few of them, we are going to increase their number. The same for countries where we’ve held events because fans desire to see the local athletes fighting in the Rage. We give them an opportunity to see that.”

With the success of female MMA stars around the world do you plan to add a female division in 2018?

VF: “One day we will probably create a female division in M-1 Global. Hoziroq, garchi, we don’t have enough strong female fighters to do it, hali. As soon as we are ready to make this happen, it will be done, but we don’t want to open a new division just to check the box. We want the best fighters to compete at the highest level.”

M-1 Global is closing in on your 100th M-1 Challenge event. Do you plan to promote your 100th event in 2018? If so can you provide any additional information about when, qayerda, special plans, etc.

VF: M-1 Global has already promoted more than 200 voqealar, shu jumladan 85 M-1 Challenges, which was created in 2008. I think that this event will happen either in Saint-Petersburg or in Moscow, but we still have a lot of time left and a dozen other events before it. We are going to take care of it a bit later.”

M-1 has developed fighters who’ve moved on to the UFC and other organizations. How do you feel about that trend? Does it frustrate you that you to spend time building a fighter and then have him move on, or do you look at it as a compliment that M-1 Global develops fighters who can compete in the UFC and any other organization?

VF: “We can consider this situation from different perspectives. I’m not happy to let my best fighters go, albatta, lekin u nima bo'ladi, and we are not ready to compete with UFC yet. Sometimes our fighters leave us. From another perspective, we are happy that our fighters who leave keep winning fights and become the top competitors in other promotions. It proves that the level of M-1 Global fighters is equal to the level of UFC fighters. The top athletes who left M-1 Global for UFC are in top positions there and other promotions don’t have such results. Other organization may make their fighters popular but, as soon as they move to UFC, they start losing and get released.

“Our company is probably the second MMA promotion in the world and when some fighters move to the strongest league on the planet, they take a step forward, which I like much better than when they move to weaker promotions than M-1 Global just to make more money.”

Any plans to do anything different this year than in the past, outside of the grand opening of the M-1 arena and possible 100th event?

VF: “The main difference will be that we are going to have our own home, M-1 Arena, which means we will be able to hold even more events. We’d like to have two events each month, 24 events a year. We opened our own TV channel (M1global.tv) and next year, MMA fans from former Soviet Republics will have an opportunity to watch all the fights. Using our iOS and Android App, viewers from all over the world can watch old and new fights right now, and next year we are going to make it even better. We are also going to create our own studio to produce different content, probably a new reality show with fighters from different countries.”

Will you have showcase M-1 Medieval fights this coming year?

VF: “Apparently, we will have some medieval fights in 2018, but the only issue is that we have a lot of fighters under contract, so it is not easy to find a place for M-1 Medieval fights on our cards. We make knight fights in regions where they are popular, like in Ingushetia and Finland in 2017, because fans demonstrated to us that they want to see them. I hope one day we’ll have more resources for them.”

M-1 Global’s 20th anniversary a smashing success in 2017

Dekabr 27, 2017 FNU47 Fikr qoldirish

M-1 Global prezidenti Vadim Finkelchtein

Sankt-Peterburg, Rossiya (Dekabr 27, 2017) — M-1 Global celebrated its 20^thanniversary in style this past year, reestablishing itself as the preeminent mixed-martial-arts organization in Europe and Russia.

M-1 promoted 13 Challenges in 2017, 11 across Russia, as well as one each in China and Finland. Fighters from around the world competed including MMA superstars such as Sergey Kharitonov va Aleksandr Shlemenko, as well as rising stars Alexey Kunchenko va Artem Frolov.

M-1 Global founder and president Vadim Finkelchtein reviewed the 2017 mavsum, answering a series of questions below:

Umumiy, how do you evaluate the 2017 M-1 Challenge season in terms of achievements and accomplishments as a promotional company?

VF: “Birinchidan, we increased the number of events. Some were even rated among top 5 monthly sporting events on television, which is really an incredible achievement. We’ve almost finished building our new M-1 Arena and produced our own M-1 Be Strong Protein milkshake.”

You promoted events in different countries this past year like Finland. Was M-1 embraced by those fans and, if so, why do you think so?

VF: “We held our first event in Finland and it was really successful. M-1 Challenge 82took place in Hartwall Arena, one of the largest venues in Finland, located in the capital of Helsinki. Many fans came to watch our promotion’s debut in that country and it became one of the biggest MMA events in Finland history. Scandinavia is a very interesting region for us. We have many fighters from Finland and next year we are going to hold another event there.

“We also had a big event in Harbin, Xitoy, which was a part of cultural program of Economic Forum. Many VIP visitors and thousands of fans gathered to watch the fights and it was a superb event. China is a prospective MMA market and we are going to work further, featuring more fighters from this country, and promote one or two event a year there.

“Keyingi yil, we are going to promote even more events in other countries, planning to hold M-1 Challenge shows in Georgia, Ozarbayjon, Qozog'iston, Turkey, Xitoy, Finland, Germany and the USA.”

What was the M-1 highlight of the year?

VF: “This past year we had a lot of remarkable events and fights, so it’s very difficult to choose just one highlight. If I had to choose, the rematch between Alexander Shlemenko and Brandon Halsey was the highlight of the year. Thousands of people in Saint Petersburg on June 1^st came to see the rematch and that liver-kick Alexander delivered made the crowd go crazy. In the first fight, Brandon won in 35 soniya, so Alexander wanted to revenge fast and it took him just 25 soniya. That was unbelievable and unforgettable!”

Compared to past years in what areas did M-1 improve in 2017?

VF: “Each year we have more high-level fighters and that is the main difference. MMA has been developing around the world and the competition is always getting tougher. Only the best fighters receive an opportunity to sign a contract with M-1 Global. We have an opportunity to choose the best fighters, increasing the level of fights, to make it impossible to predict the winners in advance. Bundan tashqari, we increased the number of events and TV coverage with some new TV contracts worldwide.”

This was your 20th year. When you started 20 years ago did you envision the success M-1 has had in MMA?

VF: “I could not imagine MMA would become so popular. I went through the entire MMA evolution and the past 20 years I’ve been working on the promotion to make it better each year. The path was not easy because many years ago this kind of sport was considered criminal. Many called it fights without rules and I had to work hard to make people think about it as a legitimate sport.”

M-1 added the flyweight division this past year. Why and was it successful in the eyes of fans?

VF: “Flyweight fighters can produce incredible performances. It was necessary for us to create this division because we knew that there were lot of good flyweight fighters. They wanted to fight in M-1 and we made it happen. We already have the first champion and a several tough contenders. Yilda 2018, the flyweight division will be very interesting.”
