М-1 Challenge 68, Маусым 16 at Yubileyny Sports Palace in St. Петербург, Ресей.

“We were in a very difficult situation after Ramazan Менmeev got injured,” М-1 Global президенті Vadim Finkelchtein explained. “The whole event was in jeopardy. Осылай, қазір, 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 (Василевский) туған күні.

“Due to our contract obligations, we were unable to postpone the event because it is officially included in the St. Петербург Менconomic 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.”

М-1 Challenge чемпионы Александр “Drago” Волков (25-6-0, М-1: 9-3-0) will make his first title defense against Attila “Pumuklo” Vegh (29-6-2, М-1: 0-0-0) М-1 Challenge бойынша 68. A match between Russian middleweight Валерий “Ресей Hammer” Мясникова (10-1-1, М-1: 1-1-1) and Spanish veteran Enoc Торрес шешеді (18-9-0, М-1: 5-6-0) has also been announced for the June 16^ші кәртішке.

“The М-1 Challenge 68 event is going to be huge,” Finkelchtein added. “We’re stacking the card with Alexander Волков vs Attila Vegh fighting in an M-1 Challenge heavyweight title fight. The Grand Prix winner, Shlemenko still gets $50,000. As for Ramazan Менmeev, we will put efforts into arranging his fight with Alexander Shlemenko this fall, if Shlemenko is still fighting in Russia. Emeev versus Shlemenko will provide the answer to all of the questions MMA fans still arguing about.”
