M-1 Global signs Heavyweight Alexander Volkov Volkov vs. Smoldarev M-1 Challenge heavyweight title fight M-1 Challenge 64, Február. 19 Moszkvában

ST. PETERSBURG, Oroszország (December 15, 2015) – M-1 Global has announced its signing of Russian heavyweight sensation Alexander “Drago” Volkov (24-6-0, M-1: 8-3-0) egy exkluzív promóciós szerződést.
Volkov will battle Denis Smoldarev (11-1-0, M-1: 7-1-0) Február 19 for the vacant M-1 Challenge heavyweight championship at M-1 Challenge 64 Moszkvában, Oroszország.
The 27-year-old puncher from Moscow returns to the organization in which he made his professional mixed-martial-arts debut April 19, 2009, needing only 80-seconds to stop Nikolay Pleshokov in the second stage of the M-1 Challenge 2009. Volkov went on to capture top honors in the finals of the M-1 Challenge 2009, legyőzte Ibragim Magomedov for the Russian Team Championships.
A 6′ 7″, 235-pound Volkov fought under the M-1 Global banner for the next two years, highlighted November 20, 2011 by his opening round punch-out of előtt 20,000 fans at M-1 Global: Fedor vs. Monson.
Ezen a ponton, Volkov had won 14 a 17 pro MMA fights and the popular Russian fighter opened 2012 with an impressive decision win over former UFC heavyweight champion Ricco Rodriguez.
Volkov had another victory before heading to the United States in order to test himself in Bellator competition. He won his inaugural Bellator fight against powerful Brett Rogers, by decision at Bellator 75, in the Bellator Season Seven Heavyweight Tournament.
Two Bellator fights later, Volkov had extended his win streak to 10 in a row, improving overall to 19-3-0 via five-round decision over Richard Hale to capture the vacant Bellator Heavyweight Championship, as well as finish first in the Bellator Season Seven Heavyweight Tournament in Hammond, Indiana, USA.
In his first fight of 2013, Volkov lost his Bellator heavyweight title in his first defense, as fellow countryman Vitaly Minakov recorded a first-round knockout in Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA.
Viszont, Volkov rebounded with three straight wins in the Bellator Season 10 Nehézsúlyú torna, defeating Bulgarian great Blaygoy Ivanov in the final by way of a second-round rear-naked choke hold. Ivanov is best known, talán, for defeating living legend Fedor Emelianenko in the semifinals on his way to winning the 2008 World Sambo Championships.
Feared as one of the most prolific strikers in MMA today, 17 of Volkov’s 24 overall victims to date were knocked out.
Volkov (pictured above to left) makes his M-1 Global return against Smoldarev, Észt, whose only loss as a professional was to Marcin Tybura (13-1-0, M-1: 7-1-0), who abdicated his M-1 Challenge heavyweight title to reportedly continue his career in the UFC. Tybura made his first successful M-1 Challenge heavyweight title defense November 24, 2014, defeating Smoldarev by third-round submission (fojtás), at M-1 Challenge 54 Pekingben, Kína.
The 25-year-old Smoldarev (shown above in the black trunks) has impressive victories against Ante Delia, Maro Perak, Ahmed Sultanov és Shaban Ka. Smoldarev is also a physical specimen, álló 6′ 5″ and weighing close to 270 font.

IS: Bellator MMA JELEK Josh "KOS" KOSCHECK A többféle KÜZDELEM AKCIÓ

KATTINTSON IDE Bellator 139 FOTÓK

 

Mulvane, Május. (Június 26, 2015) - Cheick Kongo (23-10-2) hasznosított számos kitűnő könyök sztrájk legyőzni Alexander Volkov (24-6) via egyhangú döntést a fő esemény a Bellator MMA: "Kongo vs. Volkov "Kansas Csillagok Arena Mulvane, Május., pénteken.

A francia könyörtelen volt az ő eltávolítási kísérletek és "Drago" nem tudta használni a hossza, hogy védekezzenek őket, kiadások jó ideje a nehézsúlyú találkozás a hátán.

A győzelem, Kongo javítja a 4-2 alatt Bellator MMA esernyő, míg Volkov most esett két egymást követő döntések.

 

A co-main event, Dave Rickels (16-3, 1 NC) látszólag útközben egy látványos leállítása John Alessio (35-17, 1 NC) de a meggondolatlan térd a fejét egy lezuhant Alessio eredményezett nem verseny.

 

A 26 éves Derby, Május. őshonos volt az egykori World Extreme Cagefighting versenyző imbolygott ellen a ketrec, de a harsogó a szülővárosában rajongók lehet, hogy elborult az ő döntéshozatal, mint Rickels dobta a térd, és ennek eredményeként a játékvezető Rob Hinds intett le a küzdelem.

 

"Kansas, Sajnálom,"Rickels mondta. "A harc folyik pontosan úgy, ahogy vártam. Látni fogja nekem ezt újra, kivéve legközelebb, Megyek jogilag befejezni az ellenfelem. Én határozatlan fejbe, Elrontottam, Tudtam volna állítani bármelyik pillanatban, de én csak azt akartam, hogy befejezze azt. "

"Hittem magamban. Tudom, hogy nagyon nehéz kezét, és ez volt csak egy nagy durranás ütni,"Kato mondta a meccs után. "Úgy érzem, hogy nagyszerű munkát képviselő japán MMA. Ez nem csak a küzdő, mi is sztrájkolók is. "

 

Kato bemutatta a birkózó az első fordulóban, érvénytelenítését a világszínvonalú muay thai Schilling a földön. De miután néhány még cserék megnyitni a második lappal, Kato ütött egy tökéletesen elhelyezett ütés, amely elküldte e a részvétel egy őrület. Érdemes megjegyezni, hogy a japán nemzetközi nyerte mind az öt ő harcol a KO vagy TKO.

A két featherweights fenntartotta a perzselő lépést során 15 jegyzőkönyv, de a három bíró által kinevezett Kansas Bizottság minden javára döntött az egykori 145-pound bajnok.

 

A meccs után, "Paddy Mike" megígérte, hogy javítsa tovább a mesterségét.

 

"Nagyon kellett ez a győzelem,"Curran mondta. "Szeretnék köszönetet mondani neki fokozni három héttel értesítést és figyelembe küzdelem. Megyek jönnek, Nekem van egy csomó javítani, és folyamatosan dolgozunk. Megyek, hogy térjen vissza az edzőterembe, és folyamatosan egyre jobb. "

Koscheck, egy korábbi Divízió I birkózó bajnok, aki most csatlakozik egy ultra-versenyképes váltósúlyú divízió, ahol a visszavágót ellen Paul Daley esetleg valóra.
