Alexander Shlemenko (R) is as tough as they come |
SANT PETERSBURG, Rússia (Abril 24, 2018)) – One of the greatest middleweights in mix martial arts history, Alejandro “Tempesta” Shlemenko, returns to The Rage on June 1 al titular M-1 Desafiament 93 versus Brazilian power-puncher Bruno Silva (17-6-0, M-1: 0-0-0), at Chelyabinsk, Rússia.
A hand-to-hand combat sports and kickboxing specialist, Shlemenko (56-10-0, 1 NC, M-1: 6-0-0) is a former Bellator champion, who took top honors in the 2016 M-1 Grand Prix, using a choke hold for a second-round submission of Vyacheslav Vasilevsky al M-1 Desafiament 68 Baralla de la Nit.
In his last M-1 action, “Tempesta” needed only 25 seconds to stop Brandon Halsey, avenging his Bellator title-fight loss, last June at M-1 Desafiament 79.
An aggressive striker who has had registered 56 career pro victories, Shlemenko is known as a crowd pleaser, and the gifted Russian star still shines bright.
Silva, who will be making his M-1 debut, s'ha aturat 14 de la seva 17 victims to date. The Shlemenko vs. Silva match-up is a guaranteed crowd pleaser, and few figures it will go the complete distance.
En l'esdeveniment co estel·lar, undefeated M-1 Challenge middleweight champion Artem Frolov(10-0-0, M-1: 7-0-0) makes his first title defense against former UFC fighter Joe “Diesel” Riggs (47-17-1, M-1: 2-0-1). The 26-year-old Frolov, de Rússia, captured the M-1 Challenge title last October at M-1 Desafiament 84, when he won a five-round unanimous decision over Caio Magalhaes, del Brasil. Riggs is a seasoned MMA fighter from America, who is an extremely dangerous, battle-tested opponent with as much experience as any fighter in the world.
