We were in a very difficult situation after Ramazan Etameev got injured,” M-1 Global lehendakari Vadim Finkelchtein explained. “The whole event was in jeopardy. Beraz, orain, we’re grateful to Vyacheslav Vasilevsky for agreeing to step in and face Shlemenko in our M-1 Grand Prix finals being held on his (Vasilevsky) urtebetetze.
Due to our contract obligations, we were unable to postpone the event because it is officially included in the St. Petersburgo Etaconomic Forum, which is something every one of our fighters knew from the very beginning. There’s a paragraph in the Grand Prix fighterscontract stating we can use one of the guys who fought in the semifinals of the tournament in case someone gets injured. Now we’re making one of the most anticipated rematches in the history of Russian MMA.
M-1 Challenge heavyweight txapelduna Alexander “Drago” Volkov (25-6-0, M-1: 9-3-0) will make his first title defense against AttilaPumukloVegh (29-6-2, M-1: 0-0-0) at M-1 Challenge 68.

“The M-1 Challenge 68 event is going to be huge,” Finkelchtein added. “We’re stacking the card with Alexander Volkov vs Attila Vegh fighting in an M-1 Challenge heavyweight title fight. The Grand Prix winner, Shlemenko still gets $50,000. As for Ramazan Etameev, we will put efforts into arranging his fight with Alexander Shlemenko jaitsiera honetan, if Shlemenko is still fighting in Russia. Emeev versus Shlemenko will provide the answer to all of the questions MMA fans still arguing about.
