Ivan Buchinger is back!
SANKT PETERSBORG, Rusland (Marts 10, 2018) — Former M-1 Challenge featherweight champion John “Dette er den” Buchinger rebounded from his title loss last November with an impressive win over Andrey Krasnikov in tonight’s M-1 Challenge 89 main event, at M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburg, Rusland.
The judges had an uneventful evening as only one of a dozen fights on the overall M-1 Challenge 89 card went the full distance for a decision in this true International event. Fighters represented 11 different countries: Rusland, Slovakiet, Ukraine, Brasilien, Aserbajdsjan, Frankrig, Hviderusland, Georgien, Bulgaria, Israel and Spain.
Buchinger (33-6-0, M-1: 7-2-0), kæmper ud af Slovakiet, originally captured the M-1 Challenge featherweight title on October 17, 2014, standsning Tural Nizami on punches in the fourth round, i M-1 Challenge 52 Fight of the Night. Buchinger retained his title for more than three years, losing his title belt last November 24 på M-1 Challenge 86, når Khamzat Dalgiev knocked him out by punches in the opening round.
I anden runde, Buchinger used his vast arsenal of skills to defeat the game Krasnikov, Rusland, by way of an anaconda choke for a second-round submission.
Buchinger’s strong comeback against his Ukrainian opponent, Krasnikov (14-4-0), who had won 13 af hans sidste 14 MMA fights going into his showdown with Buchinger, should position the Slovakian for a possible rematch with Dalgiev.
Russian featherweight contender Viktor Kolesnik (12-3-1) went to the ground with a effective Guillotine Choke for a first-round triumph by submission over M-1 Global-debutingDavid “Davi Boxer” Silva de Souza (8-3-0), Brasilien, in the co-featured event.
