ST. PETERSBURG, Rusio (Julio 15, 2015) – A pair of past M-1 Challenge championship contenders, Maro “Mean Machine” Perak Kaj Viktor Nemkov, Batalos #A?gusto 5 in the main event at M-1 Defio 60 in Orel, Russia with the winner positioning himself for a potential title shot against M-1 Challenge light heavyweight champion Stephan Puetz..

Perak (R) unsuccesfuly fought Denis Smoldarev for the coveted M-1 Challenge heavyweight title earlier this year

Perak (23-5-1, 12 KOa/TKO, 7 SUB), fighting out of Croatia, is coming off tough, competitive fights against two of the best heavyweights in the world, another past M-1 Challenge title challenger, Denis Smoldarev, and reigning M-1 Challenge champion Marcin Tybura.

This past February at M-1 Defio 55, Perak lost by submission (brako-seruro) to Smoldarev in the opening round. Perak’s only title fight to date was April 4, 2014, in which he was stopped in the third round by Tybura’s punches.

After his aforementioned fights, Perak decided to drop down in weight to fight as a light heavyweight. He was scheduled face Rashad Yusupov last May at M-1 Defio 57, Tamen, a knee surgery forced Perak out of that fight and he will instead make his M-1 light heavyweight debut versus Nemkov. Perak will be looking for his first win in M-1 Global competition, fighting for the fourth time in an event presented by the highly respected Russian promotional company.

Nemkov (supre) gave M-1Challenge light heavyweight champion Stephan Puetz all he could handle in their bout

A native of Kazakhstan, now fighting out of Belgorod, Rusio, Nemkov (16-8-0, 9 KOa/TKO, 4 SUB) hopes the third time is the charm for him. He has lost two M-1 Challenge light heavyweight title fights, Marto 14, 2014 toPuetz by split decision at M-1 Defio 46, and back in 2011 Al Vinny Magalhaes De tria-ronda propono (ĉokilo) #?E M-1 Defio 25.

A veteran of 16 M-1 Global fights (9-7-0), Nemkov has been sidelined the past 1 ½ years recovering from a series of injuries.

Nemkov’s return and Perak’s debut as a light heavyweight adds up to an explosive fight for the right to challenge Puetz.

Three other fights have been announced this far for M-1 Defio 60: Battle in Orel. #?Iuj bataloj kaj batalantoj estas submetataj #?an?i, additional bouts will soon be announced.

Polish light heavyweight Marcin Zontek (14-8-0, 6 KOa/TKO, 5 SUB) Prenas sur Maxim Futin, De Rusio, Zulfikar Usmanov (7-4-1, 1 KOa/TKO, 4 SUB) #Viza?o Alexey “Tasko” Makhno (9-3-0, 4 KOa/TKO, 1 SUB) in a battle of Russian lightweights, and French bantamweight Moktar Benkaci (11-6-0) Renkontas Evgeni Lazukov (7-2-0, 1 KOa/TKO, 1 SUB), De Rusio.

Zontek (14-8-0, 6 KOa/TKO, 5 SUB) (bildigis al maldekstra) plans a spectacular comeback from his 2012 bloody fight with Sergey Korneev for the M-1 Challenge light heavyweight title. Zontek needed more than 2 ½ years to fully recover from his loss but he won his last two fights going into his Aug. 5 Batalo.

A two-time Combat Sambo champion and European vice-champion, Futin (4-2-0, 4 KOa/TKO) is an exciting fighter who often spars with Vyacheslav Vasilevky. Futin is always in great shape and known as an excellent striker.

Usmanov (pictured below left) is an experienced MMA fighter from St. Petersburg.

A powerful striker, he has twice been awarded “Batalo de la Nokto” bonuses. Riding a five-fight win streak, Makhno is a promising prospect whose M-1 Challenge debut ended with a sensational knockout victory over Rakhman Makhazhiev (pictured below right).

In his most recent fight, Benkaci (11-7-0, 3 KOa/TKO, 7 SUB) gave Nikita Chistyakovall he could handle, albeit in a loss by majority decision. Benkaci (pictured below left), whose previous fights have been at featherweight, was at a disadvantage fighting Chistyakov at lightweight. When M-1 Global launched its bantamweight division last month, dropped down to a much more comfortable weight class for him.

A seven-time European Universal Combat champion, Lazukov (pictured below right) showed his potential early, defeating UFC flyweight contender Ali Begautinov during his relatively young professional career.
