ST. PETERSBURG, Russie (Janvier 26, 2016) – Reigning M-1 Challenge middleweight champion Ramadan Emeev will take on Brazilian challenger Maiquel “Big Rig” Falcao in the second M-1 Grand Prix middleweight eliminator, Mars 4 à M-1 Défi 65, à Moscou.
The first M-1 Grand Prix match of 2016 is set in the middleweight division as three-time Bellator champion Alexander “Tempête” Shlemenko (51-9-0, M-1: 2-0-0) takes on former M-1 Challenge middleweight and light heavyweight titlist Vyacheslav Vassilevski (27-3-0, M-1: 10-1-0)à M-1 Défi 64, Février 19 au Stade olympique à Moscou.
The winners of Shlemenko vs. Vasilevsky and Emeev vs. Falcao will advance to the M-1 Grand Prix middleweight championship later this year.
We tried to get the strongest middleweight fighters and did a great job to give fans the most spectacular match-ups,” Président M-1 Global Vadim Finkelchtein dit. “Every single fight is intriguing in M-1 Grand Prix. I can’t guess how these fights will end up. Every single fighter has his advantages. Donc, I think all of these fights are 50-50.
Emeev (13-3-0, M-1: 7-1-0), la 2015 M-1 Global Fighter of the Year, is a two-time M-1 Challenge middleweight champion. Born in Azerbaijan but fighting and training out of Markaxhkala, Russie, Emeev originally captured the vacant M-1 Challenge middleweight crown in 2012 à M-1 Défi 35, winning a decision over Mario Miranda. Emeev successfully defended his title in a rematch cinq mois plus tard with Miranda, who was stopped via strikes in the third round at M-1 Défi 38.
In his next title defense, Emeev lost his title belt at M-1 Défi 51 as Vasilevsky won by fourth-round stoppage via punches. Sept mois plus tard dans un match revanche, Emeev defeated Vasilevsky by first round submission (étranglement), and the champion defended his title this past December at M-1 Challenge 63, when American challenger Fioravanti Luigi was unable to continue fighting after two rounds.
Falcao may be making his M-1 Global debut at M-1 Défi 65, cependant, the Brazilian black belt holder is a veteran of 43 professional MMA bouts with 23 KO. The 34-year old Falcao split two fights with Vasilevsky and he was stopped by Shlemenko in the second round at Bellator 69.
