Landwehr’s last fight was this past November at M-1 sib tw 85, at which he won a split decision over Viktor Kolesnik.
Since his first fight in Russia, Landwehr has developed into one of M-1 Global’s most popular fighters, largely due to his fan-friendly fighting style, as well as his showmanship. He made his own promo video, talks trash at press conferences, and broke out into an “ass whooping” song after his fight.

Landwehr (saum toj no) is an all-around fighter who can ground or pound

Able to defeat his opponent in a variety of ways, Dalgiev has won five fights by submission with three knockouts, including five opening-round stoppages. If rising to the occasion is his forte, Dalgiev should be sky high to fight Landwehr in one of the most anticipated M-1 Global showdowns in years.

Dalgiev (saum toj no) put Buchinger to sleep in the first round to capture the coveted M-1 Challenge featherweight title (hauv qab no)
