The eight are now four in the “M-1 Selection: Eastern Europe”
welterweight and heavyweight brackets, and a few established veterans
were ushered out in shocking fashion.
Welterweight Ramazan Abdulzhalilov (5-1) submitted Said Khalilov (16-7)
in just 65 seconds, while heavyweight Arsen Abdulkerimov (6-0) needed
just 3:05 to stop Denis Komkin (14-5), who enjoyed a 37-pound weight
advantage in the bout, with a devastating right hook.
The two up-and-comers were just part of an 18-bout card that took place
Saturday at the Crocus Expo Universal Sports Arena in Moscow and
streamed live on MMAjunkie.com.
