M-1 Challenge 89 is just a couple weeks away!

On March 10th we are going to witness the second event at the new M-1 Arena in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. In the main event of the evening ex-featherweight champion Ivan Buchinger of Slovakia will fight Andrey Krasnikov of Ukraine! Ivan Buchinger (32-6) made a mistake in the last fight against the challenger Khamzat Dalgiev and it costed him his title. Now he is starting his way back to the top of the division and the first step is not going to be simple for the ex-champ! Andrey Krasnikov (14-3) is new to M-1 Global, but quite famous in the MMA world. After loosing a couple bouts in the very beginning of his career, Andrey won 13 times in 14 fights, finishing his opponents 10 times! 5 knockouts and 6 submissions prove how universal this fighter is and be sure he will do his best to use an opportunity to start the career in M-1 Global with the victory against such a famous fighter like Ivan!
