MOSKOU (Maart 21, 2017) – M-1 Global has ordered an Interim M-1 Challenge bantamweight title fight, due to a long-term injury to reigning champion Pavel Vitruk, between top contenders Alexey Nevzorov en Movsar Evloev bij M-1 Challenge 76, April 22, in Ingoesjetië, Rusland.

Representing the famed Alexander Nevsky OEMK Team in Stary Oskol, Rusland, the home gym for living legend Fedor Emelianenko, Nevsorov (12-2-0, M-1: 6-1-0) heeft zijn laatste drie gevechten won, including a second-round stoppage of Andrey Lezhnev afgelopen december op M-1 Challenge 73, and a three-round decision last September over oosten Nagibin bij M-1 Challenge 70.

Nevorov (hierboven afgebeeld) will be dropping down in weight from featherweight to bantamweight to fight for the title.

Also Russian fighter, Evloev (6-0-0, M-1: 6-0-0) is coming off the best victory of his young career, positioning himself for this title shot with a three-round decision over his much more experienced foe, American opponent Lee Morrison (see pictured below), bij M-1 Challenge 73.

Known for his tremendous physicality, coupled with an excellent grappling game and diverse striking skill set, Nevzorov has been tabbed as a future MMA star.

A featherweight match between Russian oosten Nagibin (8-2-0, M-1: 4-1-0) en Brazilian Diego D’Avila (18-5-0, M-1: 1-0-0) has also been announced for M-1 Challenge 76.

Nagibin is coming off an impressive third-round stoppage (stoten) van De rbanali Abdusalamov bij M-1 Challenge 72 last November, while D’Avila won his M-1 Global debut last, verstikking out Zalimbeg Omarov for the M-1 Challenge 73 Indiening van de Nacht.
