2015 M-1 Global Fighter of the Year Ramazan Emeev takes on Maiquel Falcao In M-1 Grand Prix middleweight eliminator Mar. 4 na M-1 Challenge 65 u Moskvi

ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Siječanj 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, Mart 4 u M-1 Challenge 65, u Moskvi.
The first M-1 Grand Prix match of 2016 is set in the middleweight division as three-time Bellator champion Aleksandar “Oluja” Shlemenko (51-9-0, M-1: 2-0-0) takes on former M-1 Challenge middleweight and light heavyweight titlist Vyacheslav Vasilevsky (27-3-0, M-1: 10-1-0)u M-1 Challenge 64, Februar 19 na Olimpijskom stadionu u Moskvi.
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,” M-1 Global predsjednika Vadim Finkelchtein rekao je. “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. Stoga, I think all of these fights are 50-50.
Emeev (13-3-0, M-1: 7-1-0), u 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, Rusija, Emeev originally captured the vacant M-1 Challenge middleweight crown in 2012 u M-1 Challenge 35, winning a decision over Mario Miranda. Emeev successfully defended his title in a rematch five months later with Miranda, who was stopped via strikes in the third round at M-1 Challenge 38.
In his next title defense, Emeev lost his title belt at M-1 Challenge 51 as Vasilevsky won by fourth-round stoppage via punches. Sedam mjeseci kasnije u revanš, Emeev defeated Vasilevsky by first round submission (čok), 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 Challenge 65, međutim, the Brazilian black belt holder is a veteran of 43 professional MMA bouts with 23 nokauta. The 34-year old Falcao split two fights with Vasilevsky and he was stopped by Shlemenko in the second round at Bellator 69.

M-1 Grand Prix Tournament relaunched

ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Siječanj 20, 2016) – M-1 Global President Vadim Finkelchtein recently announced the relaunching of its popular series, M-1 Grand Prix Tournament.
We’ve been preparing this a long time and now we’re happy to officially announce our 2016 M-1 Grand Prix Tournament,” Finkelchtein said. “This has been a very popular format and fans are always excited about it. This time we will feature a 4-man tournament, rather than the usual 8-man pairings, because the 4-man version is faster and more entertaining. We don’t want to bore people with long expectation periods and lessen the risk of occasional injuries and fighter changes in the tournament.
The first M-1 Grand Prix match of 2016 is set in the middleweight division as three-time Bellator champion Aleksandar “Oluja” Shlemenko (51-9-0, M-1: 2-0-0) takes on former M-1 Challenge middleweight and light heavyweight titlist Vyacheslav Vasilevsky (27-3-0, M-1: 10-1-0)u M-1 Challenge 64, Februar 19 na Olimpijskom stadionu u Moskvi.
“Dobro, we were choosing between several offers from different promotions,” explained Shlemenoko’s manager Alexey Zhernakov. “Na kraju, we came to the conclusion that M-1 Grand Prix participation is the most interesting option for us at the moment. Alexander is still under Bellator’s exclusive contract. Stoga, we had to negotiate with Bellator, which kindly allowed us to sign with M-1 Global. We expect Alexander Shlemenko to take part in major M-1 Challenge events as they are always organized at a high level and broadly covered by the media.
M-1 Challenge 64 will be streamed live from Moscow in high definition on www.M1Global.TV. Gledatelji će moći gledati preliminarne borbe i glavnog karticu prijavom na registrovati nawww.M1Global.TV. Navijači mogu gledati sve akcije na racunaru, kao i na Android i Apple pametne telefone i tablete.
