Welterweight bout at M-1 Challenge 87: Charles-Henry Tchoungui, France vs. Artem Nenakhov, Russia.

Charles-Henry Tchoungui (9-7-2) is an extremely experienced grappler who won BJJ national championship three times and was a champion of a few local promotions. 7 of 9 wins he got with submissions, so he is definitely not the guy you want to roll with. His opponent is a top ground fighter himself. Artem Nenakhov (6-2) is a Sambo master and just like his opponent most of the fights he won with submissions. Artem will try to prove that Russian Sambo is better for MMA than Brazilian Jiu Jiutsu. Will he succeed? We’ll see on February 9th at M-1 Arena grand opening event M-1 Challenge 87!
