Februar 18 u St. Petersburg, Rusija

ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Siječanj 16, 2017) – M-1 Global has announced that M-1 Challenge lightweight champion Aleksandar “Iron Capture” Butenko will take on challenger Abukar Yandiev (8-1-0, M-1: 2-1-0) u M-1 Challenge 74 co-feature on Februar 18, u St. Petersburg, Rusija.

The previously announced main event pits undefeated M-1 Challenge light heavyweight champion Rashid Yusupov (6-0-0, M-1: 4-0-0), Rusije, defends his title against former titlist Stephan “T-800” Puetz (15-2-0, M-1: 6-1-0), Njemačke.

M-1 Challenge 74 će se prenositi uživo iz St. Petersburg u visokoj definiciji na www.M1Global.TV.

Navijači mogu gledati sve akcije na racunaru, kao i na Android i Apple pametne telefone i tablete.

Also announced is a fight between top bantamweights Vitaly Branchuk iMoktar “Le Kabyle” Benkaci will also be in action with the winner positioning himself for a potential title shot with M-1 Challenge bantamweight championPavel Vitruk in the not-too-distant future.

A strong Ukrainian with superior wrestling skills, Butenko (42-11-2, M-1: 9-1-0) is an eight-year MMA veteran who has found a welcomed home in M-1 Challenge competition and he has taken advantage of the opportunity. Riding a six-fight win streak, the 29-year-old Butenko captured the vacant M-1 Challenge lightweight title belt last June at M-1 Challenge 67, when he took a five-round unanimous decision over Artiom Damkovsky.

U svojoj zadnjoj akciji, na M-1 Challenge 71 u oktobru, Butenko won a unanimous three-round decision against Rubenilton Pereira in a non-title fight.

Butenko’s first title defense will be against one of the most popular MMA fighters in Russia, the fighting powerhouse Yandiev, who also is a strong wrestler, plus a solid Judo background. The rising lightweight star will be a certain fan favor because of his nationality as well as his style of fighting, resulting in first-round endings in all his pro fights to date.

Last June at M-1 Challenge 68, Yandiev used an armlock for a first-round submission of Tony Christodoulou, fought at a 177 ½ lbs. catchweight.

Like Butenko, Branchuk (21-6-0, M-1: 1-2-0) also fights out of Ukraine. The 25-year-old fighter is a former M-1 Challenge bantamweight title challenger, who was riding an eight-fight into his last fight, in which he lost by fourth-round submission (čok) to the aforementioned Vitruk (see accompanying picture to left). In M-1 Challenge competition, Branchuk defeated Antun Račićone year ago, by way of a three-round split decision at M-1 Challenge 64.

Benkaci (13-7-0, (M-1: 2-1-0) is a grappling specialist from France. Known and highly respected for his great conditioning and endurance, he lost a disputed three-round decision in his M-1 Challenge debut to Nikita Chistyakov 1-½ years ago, but the talented Frenchman bounced back to knockout his last two opponents, Vadim Malygin iAlexey Naumov, odnosno, by knee and punch.

M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Championship

M-1 Challenge 68, Jun 16 u St. Petersburg, Rusija

(L-R) – Vyacheslav Vasilevsky & Alexander Shlemenko

ST. PETERSBURG, Rusija (Maj 17, 2016) – Former M-1 Challenge light heavyweight and middleweight champion Vyacheslav Vasilevsky (28-4-0, M-1: 10-2-0) has stepped up to replace injured Ramadan Emeev protiv Aleksandar “Oluja” Shlemenko (52-9-0, M-1: 3-0-0) in the final of the M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Tournament, obloge

M-1 Challenge 68, Jun 16 at Yubileyny Sports Palace in St. Petersburg, Rusija.

Emeev (14-3-0, M-1: 8-1-0) suffered a torn ligament in his elbow during training camp. In a M-1 Challenge Grand Prix Middleweight Tournament semifinals match last February, Vasilevsky lost a majority decision to Shlemenko in the M-1 Challenge 64 Fight of the Night.

“We were in a very difficult situation after Ramazan Imeev got injured,” M-1 Global predsjednika Vadim Finkelchtein objašnjeno. “The whole event was in jeopardy. Tako, sada, 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) rođendan.

“Due to our contract obligations, we were unable to postpone the event because it is officially included in the St. Petersburg Iconomic Forum, which is something every one of our fighters knew from the very beginning. There’s a paragraph in the Grand Prix fighters’ contract 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 prvak u teškoj kategoriji Aleksandar “Drago” Volkov (25-6-0, M-1: 9-3-0) will make his first title defense against Attila “Pumuklo” Vegh (29-6-2, M-1: 0-0-0) na M-1 Challenge 68. A match between Russian middleweight Valery “Ruske Hammer” Myasnikov (10-1-1, M-1: 1-1-1) and Spanish veteran Enoc Razriješiti Torres (18-9-0, M-1: 5-6-0) has also been announced for the June 16^th kartica.

“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 Imeev, we will put efforts into arranging his fight with Alexander Shlemenko ovaj pad, if Shlemenko is still fighting in Russia. Emeev versus Shlemenko will provide the answer to all of the questions MMA fans still arguing about.”
