몬테카를로, 모나코(7월 15, 2016)- The World Mixed Martial Arts Association (WMMAA) has issued an announcement regarding an appeal recently filed by Stefano Sartori, manager of Brazilian fighter 파비오 말도 나도, to reassess the result of his June 17^제 fight with 표도르 예 멜리아 넨코, which headlined 파이트 나이트 글로벌 50 상트 페테르부르크, 러시아.

WMMAA General Secretary & 수석 부사장 Alexander Engelhardt (왼쪽 사진) has declared that Emelianenko vs. 말도 나도, which was originally ruled a majority decision victory in favor of Emeliananko, officially be changed to a draw.

Team Malondado’s appeal to the WMMAA was filed claiming a conflict of interest because all of the judges are employed by the Russian MMA Union, of which Emelianenko serves as president, as well as for the initial appeal to the Russian MMA Union, a sanctioned WMMAA member, being unjustly rejected by the head jury.

Engelhardt was appointed by WMMAA present Vadim Finkelchetein to handle the appeal procedure. A committee was formed comprised of Engelhardt, 헥터 몰리나 (멕시코), Chairman of the Rules, Regulations and Referee Committee; Ino Alberga (The Netherlands), Member of the Rules, Regulations and Referee Committee; Poalo Biotti (이탈리아), Chairman Ethics and Disciplinary Committee; Zaya Zaya (호주), Member Professional Referee Committee.

게다가, independent judge Marco Broersen (The Netherlands), Chairman of Professional Referee Committee and Ethics and Disciplinary Committee, was responsible for selecting an independent judges’ panel to reassess the original result. The three-judges were Youri Lamoureux (캐나다), Lukasz Bosacki(폴란드) 과 Alexey Zemskov (러시아).

Each of the three aforementioned judges scored the first round in favor of Emelianenko, 10-8, and the second and third rounds for Maldonado, 10-9 마다, resulting in a 28-28 무승부.

The appeal procedure was divided into two parts for review in terms of whether the procedural mistakes related to the fight were made and that an independent international judges’ panel had to review the fight.

The WMMAA came to the conclusion that the appeal was legitimate and it was accepted due to the fact one of the fighters, 에밀리아 넨코, as President of the Russian MMA Union, and Head of Judges, Radmir Gabdullin, had a working relationship that could potentially affect the judgmental decisions. The WMMAA made it clear that it wasn’t saying the aforementioned relationship led to a different outcome of the result, just that it was an unfortunate choice.

또한, the WMMAA ruled that initially refusing the appeal was a mistake based on WMMAA amateur rules as Emelianenko vs. Maldonado was conducted under WMMAA rules.

The appeal decision that resulted in the result being changed to “Unanimous Draw” was accepted by the WMMAA, which informed Fight Nights, the promoter of Emelianko vs. 말도 나도, 에밀리아 넨코, Sartori and the Russian MMA Union of its decision, and that it official had closed the appeal.
