Busy May & June for M-1 Global

 

ST. ΠΕΤΡΟΥΠΟΛΗ, Ρωσία (Μάρτιος 31, 2017) – Μ-1 Παγκόσμια πρόεδρος Vadim Finkelchtein (pictured above) has announced five M-1 Challenge events to be held this May and June.
Below is a Q & A with the veteran MMA promoter:
Can you tell us about plans for upcoming M-1 Global events?
VF: “In the next 2-3 months we will promote an extremely full schedule of events. Through the middle of Ιούνιοςμι, we will promote fiveI’m not afraid to use these wordsgrandiose tournaments. April 22nd there’s an event being held in Nazran, which was arranged with the support of the local government, and dedicated to the 25th anniversary of Ingushetia. Επί Μάιος 19ου, in collaboration with Rostec and Rosoboronexport corporations, we will hold a truly spectacular event in Sochi. Our traditional tournament in Orenburg is set for 26 Μαΐου, which regularly takes place at the highest level with a crowded venue. Επί Ιούνιοςe 1st, we will hold another event in St. Petersburg as part of the International Καιconomic Forum program. And already on Ιούνιοςμι 15 – A major tournament will be held June 15ου in Harbin, Κίνα, during the program of the Russian-Chinese Καιxpo. Both in St. Petersburg and China, we are included in the official program, so we will be participating in truly large-scale events.
Fans are interested in fighters whose performances will decorate these tournaments. Can you reveal some of the competing fighters?
VF: “We will really surprise the audience at these events. A lot of negotiations are ongoing, including those with fighters who are the TopP-20 ranked fighters in the world. There will also be fights involving new fighters. Βεβαίως, we intend to make fights that fans have been waiting for a long time. One is the is the Idrisov vs. Buchinger rematch and, φυσικά, probably the most anticipated fight in Russian MMA today, Shlemenko vs Καιmeev.
The fight between Alexander Shlemenko and Ramazan Καιmeev had already been postponed twice. What prevents this fight from being canceled for the third time?
VF: “The desire of the two fighters can play the major role here. Καιverything has been done on our side. Αλέξανδρος Shlemenko is ready for this fight. We’re waiting word back from Ramazan Καιmeev. This fight is interesting for fans and we will try to make it happen. People are starting to understand more and more about MMA and we are making fights that our fans want to happen. Not only does this apply to Shlemenko και Καιmeev. but for other popular fighters as well, including undefeated M-1 welterweight champion Alexey Kunchenko, top lightweight Artiom Damkovsky, Damir Ismagulov, Σεργκέι Romanov and many others. We try to sign contracts with only fighters who want to be in spectacular fights. Look at the last events in Moscow. Were any of the 11 fights boring? Μη! Καιven in undercard matches we have fighters who deliver exciting fights and often early finishes. This is the hallmark of our promotion. We do not hold uninteresting events or boring fights.
Σήμερα, many promotions sign fighters who were fired from UFC. Why are you not doing this?
VF: “Certainly in that way. If fighters are interesting to the Russian public and well known, we will sign him. Αλλιώς, I believe that it is wrong to sign, να το πω έτσι, cast-off fighters. This will not add credibility and strengthen our organization in the MMA world. We do that a different way. We build stars that UFC chases. It may be more difficult but M-1 is more respected by the West for doing it this way. Κοιτάξτε, those fighters who leave M-1 for the UFC leave because they’ve been developed through serious schooling, as we do not feed themtomato cans” αντιπάλους. We do not make easy fights for anybody. Marcin Tybura, Rashid Magomedov, Mairbek Taisumov, Alexey Oleinik, Islam Makhachev, Αλέξανδρος Volkov, κ.λπ.. All of them are our former fighters. They were not known at the beginning of their careers but now they are all doing excellent. Fighters of the other promoters who moved in UFC are often fired after a while because, here in Russia, they did not face tough opposition.
How do you fight the departure of your fighters to the West?
VF: “Εδώ, I disagree with you. It used to be that way. Τώρα, to the contrary, many fighters want to perform in M-1 because it is no less prestigious than performing for Bellator, where the emphasis is on the show. Example of this are Alexander Shlemenko, Σεργκέι Kharitonov, and others. These warriors gladly come to us and agree to fight here because the opposition in M-1 is not weak. Βεβαίως, regarding the departure of the fighters to the West, money plays a great role. But there are fighters who are grateful to M-1 for fame they gained. We paved the road to a greatness for them and, consequently, they do not rush to leave M-1 anywhere.

ΜΟΣΧΑ (Μάρτιος 27, 2017) – Ρωσική βαρέων βαρών Σεργκέι “Ο αλεξιπτωτιστής” Kharitonov has committed to fighting Ιούνιος 15 στο Μ-1 Πρόκληση 80 card in Harbin, Κίνα. Kharitonov will square-off against veteran Brazilian MMA fighter Marcus ViniciudsMontanha” Lopes στο κύριο γεγονός.
Kharitonov (23-6-0, Μ-1: 3-0-0) is undefeated in three M-1 Challenge events having defeated former M-1 Challenge heavyweight champion Kenny “Δυάρι” Σιταποθήκη δυο φορές, στο M-1 Πρόκληση 59 σε 2015 στο Καζακστάν (WKO/TKO4 – γροθιές) και Μ-1 Πρόκληση 43 σε 2013 στην Κίνα, (KO / TKO3 – βλάβη), και Alexei Kudin στο Μ-1 Πρόκληση 53 σε 2014 Ρωσία (ΚΟ2).
Kharitonov, who has also fought in Strikeforce and PRIDE, έχει νικήσει μερικούς από τους μεγαλύτερους μαχητές βαρέων βαρών MMA όλων των εποχών, συμπεριλαμβανομένου Allistair Overeem, Αντρέι Arlovski, Fabricio Werdum και Pedro Rizzo.
Lopes (15-0-0, Μ-1: 2-1-0) νίκησε Evgeni Myakinkin by three-round unanimous decision this past February at Μ-1 Πρόκληση 74. Lopes won a three-round unanimous decision over Κουρμπάν Ibragimov in his M-1 debut last July. His lone M-1 loss came at Μ-1 Πρόκληση 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, αν όχι, 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 (Μ-1 Παγκόσμια πρόεδρος) 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, ανεμιστήρες’ 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: “Ναί, 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. Επομένως, O prefer to fight in M-1 Global.
