Gadael sylw

MOSCOW (Mawrth 27, 2017) – Russian heavyweight Sergei “Mae'r paratrooper” Kharitonov has committed to fighting Mehefin 15 ar y M-1 Her 80 card in Harbin, Llestri. Kharitonov will square-off against veteran Brazilian MMA fighter Marcus Viniciuds “Montanha” Lopes yn y prif ddigwyddiad.
Kharitonov (23-6-0, M-1: 3-0-0) is undefeated in three M-1 Challenge events having defeated former M-1 Challenge heavyweight champion Kenny “Deuce” Garner ddwywaith, at M-1 Her 59 mewn 2015 at Kazakhstan (WKO/TKO4 – punches) ac M-1 Her 43 mewn 2013 at China, (KO/TKO3 – injury), ac i Alexei Kudin yn M-1 Her 53 mewn 2014 Rwsia (KO2).
Kharitonov, who has also fought in Strikeforce and PRIDE, has defeated some of the greatest heavyweight MMA fighters of all-time, Gan gynnwys Allistair Overeem, Andrei Arlovski, Fabricio Werdum ac Pedro Rizzo.
Lopes (15-0-0, M-1: 2-1-0) trechu Evgeni Myakinkin by three-round unanimous decision this past February at M-1 Her 74. Lopes won a three-round unanimous decision over Kurban Ibragimov in his M-1 debut last July. His lone M-1 loss came at M-1 Her 71 this past October to former M-1 Challenge light heavyweight champion Stephan Puetz, who used a choke hold for a third-round submission victory.
A pressure fighter and solid striker, Lopes is a jiu-jitsu champion in his native Brazil, where most of his MMA fights have been held during his 6 1/2-years professional career.
In a recent interview with M-1 Global News, Kharitonov said, “I received a lot of offers but I prefer to fight in M-1 Global.” Below is the complete Q & A with Kharitonov:
Do you know who your opponent will be at M-1 Challenge and, os nad, what are your expectations?
SK: “I don’t not know anything yet. I received an offer from M-1 to fight in China. Since I have been talking with (Llywydd M-1 Byd-eang) Vadim Finkelchtein for a long time and understand each other, I gave my consent Vadim said I am popular in China and that he wanted me to represent Russia in this tournament. At this moment, I have no thoughts or assumptions about this fight because I’m focused on my upcoming Bellator fight. This is my main objective right now and after that fight I will think about the M-1 fight.”
Bellator did not give permission for a fight last December in Russia. What changed this time and was it difficult to get permission to fight again in M-1?
SK: “There were no problems. I do not want to comment on how we came to an agreement, bit one thing is for sure, I’ve received permission and after my next Bellator fight I will fight at M-1 Challenge 80 in China.”
You fought in China at M-1 Challenge 53. How do you like the local audience there and what are your overall impressions of the tournament?
SK: “Everything was fine. I liked the level of organization, cefnogwyr’ attitude toward the athletes, and the response from the public. I think M-1 has good experience in terms of holding tournaments in China, so this time they can make it an even bigger show.”
Do you accept offers to fight from other Russian organizations and why did you decided to fight in M-1?
SK: “Ydw, I received a lot of offers, especially recently. I won’t say specifically but they were from major Russian MMA organizations. But I have a long relationship with M-1 and me and Vadim know each other well. We get along well and trust each other. Felly, O prefer to fight in M-1 Global.”

Shlemenko (54-9-0. 1 CC, M-1: 4-0-0), a three-time Bellator champion, trechu cyn-bencampwr M 1-Sialens Vyacheslav Vasilevsky (see picture above with Shlemenko on right) last year in the M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Championship semifinals and championship final, yn y drefn honno, by three-round majority decision and third-round submission (tagu).

Yn ei weithred olaf, Shlemenko stopped Kendall Grove in the second round of their main event fight on Bellator 162 last October in Memphis, Tennessee.
“Alexander Shlemenko fighting in Russia is always a significant event,” Llywydd M-1 Byd-eang Vadim Finkelchtein Dywedodd, “as he is a true legend of Russian MMA. His fights always sellout arenas, no matter who his opponent. We all know that the story we started last year at M<-1 Grand Prix 2016 isn’t over, eto. The whole country is waiting for the fight between Russia’s two best middleweights – Alexander Shlemenko and Ramazan Emeev.
“Ramazan was injured and Shlemenko had contractual obligations with Bellator. Felly, throughout the past month, we were waiting for Shlemenko to receive permission to fight in Russia. Nawr, we have arranged for him to fight on M-1 Her 75. We’ve done a great job to make this possible and now hope that, y tro hwn, we will be able to complete this exciting story.”
