Mike SloanJan 19, 2017
Former Bellator middleweight champion Alexander Shlemenko will headline M-1 Challenge 75, the promotion announced on Thursday. An opponent has yet to be revealed for Shlemenko, who captured the M-1 Grand Prix Middleweight Championship in 2016.
Undefeated welterweight champion Alexey Kunchenko will defend his title against an opponent to be announced, as original foe Shavkat Rakhmonov had to withdraw due to injury. Also slated for the bill will be American lightweight Keon Caldwell taking on former M-1 155-pound king Maxim Divnich, while welterweight Sergey Romanov will collide with Magomed Sultanakhmedov.
M-1 Challenge 75 will be streamed live from Moscow on March 3 at M1global.tv. Additional bouts for the event will announced soon.
