The 23-year-old Yusupov (6-2-0, M-1: 3-1-0), fighting out of Sochi, Rusland, has won four fights in a row to put himself into title contention. A former Russian, European and World Amateur MMA champion, unlike many of his fellow countrymen from the North Caucasus, Joesoepov (hieronder afgebeeld) is a dangerous striker whose signature moves are powerful kicks. He is also a top-notch wrestler, evident by his M-1 Challenge victories against Charles Andrade en Martin Zawada.
 Puetz (13-2-0, M-1: 4-1-0), fighting out of Munich, Duitsland, successfully defended his M-1 Challenge title twice, after beating Nemkov in their original championship match, tegen Luis Fernando Miranda (SUB2 – choke) Augustus 15, 2014 bij M-1 Challenge 50, en Valery Myasnikov (KO/TKO2 – stoten) December 17, 2014 bij M-1 Challenge 54. In a non-title fight this past May, Puetz stopped then M-1 Challenge heavyweight champion Marcin Tybura in the third round due to severely damaged broken nose.
The 28-year-old Seledtsov (5-1-0, M-1: 0-0-0) is a former Spetsnev solider who has a solid boxing, combat samba and MMA background. The powerful Russian is the local White-Rex promotion champion.
