M-1 Global has staked claim to Bellator middleweight Vyacheslav
Vasilevsky in a Dutch court and plans to pursue the fighter in the U.S.
A judgment won this past Thursday awards damages to the Russia-based
promotion that amount to several hundred thousand Euros and bars him
from fighting in Bellator or any other organization. Neither Vasilevsky
or his representatives were present in court.
“We’re disappointed that we had to take this step,” M-1 Global Director
of Operations Evgeni Kogan told MMAjunkie.com.
