MONTE CARLO, موناكو(يوليو 15, 2016)- The World Mixed Martial Arts Association (WMMAA) has issued an announcement regarding an appeal recently filed by Stefano Sartori, manager of Brazilian fighter فابيو مالدونادو, to reassess the result of his June 17عشر fight with فيدور إميليانينكو, which headlined Fight Nights Global 50 في سانت بطرسبرغ, روسيا.
 WMMAA General Secretary & نائب الرئيس الأول Alexander Engelhardt (في الصورة إلى اليسار) has declared that Emelianenko vs. مالدونادو, which was originally ruled a majority decision victory in favor of Emeliananko, officially be changed to a draw.Team Malondado’s appeal to the WMMAA was filed claiming a conflict of interest because all of the judges are employed by the Russian MMA Union, of which Emelianenko serves as president, as well as for the initial appeal to the Russian MMA Union, a sanctioned WMMAA member, being unjustly rejected by the head jury.
Engelhardt was appointed by WMMAA present Vadim Finkelchetein to handle the appeal procedure. A committee was formed comprised of Engelhardt, Hector Molina (المكسيك), Chairman of the Rules, Regulations and Referee Committee; Ino Alberga (The Netherlands), Member of the Rules, Regulations and Referee Committee; Poalo Biotti (إيطاليا), Chairman Ethics and Disciplinary Committee; Zaya Zaya (أستراليا), Member Professional Referee Committee.
بالإضافة, independent judge Marco Broersen (The Netherlands), Chairman of Professional Referee Committee and Ethics and Disciplinary Committee, was responsible for selecting an independent judges’ panel to reassess the original result. The three-judges were Youri Lamoureux (كندا), Lukasz Bosacki(بولندا) و Alexey Zemskov (روسيا).
Each of the three aforementioned judges scored the first round in favor of Emelianenko, 10-8, and the second and third rounds for Maldonado, 10-9 كل, resulting in a 28-28 رسم.
The appeal procedure was divided into two parts for review in terms of whether the procedural mistakes related to the fight were made and that an independent international judges’ panel had to review the fight.
The WMMAA came to the conclusion that the appeal was legitimate and it was accepted due to the fact one of the fighters, Emelianenko, as President of the Russian MMA Union, and Head of Judges, Radmir Gabdullin, had a working relationship that could potentially affect the judgmental decisions. The WMMAA made it clear that it wasn’t saying the aforementioned relationship led to a different outcome of the result, just that it was an unfortunate choice.
بالإضافة إلى ذلك, the WMMAA ruled that initially refusing the appeal was a mistake based on WMMAA amateur rules as Emelianenko vs. Maldonado was conducted under WMMAA rules.
The appeal decision that resulted in the result being changed to “Unanimous Draw” was accepted by the WMMAA, which informed Fight Nights, the promoter of Emelianko vs. مالدونادو, Emelianenko, Sartori and the Russian MMA Union of its decision, and that it official had closed the appeal.
