Shlemenko/ Radev

is certainly a compelling matchup. I wonder why that’s not the headliner?

Seriously, Jordan Radev is 5’7" and fighting at middleweight? =)

Interesting that they have still have Toni Valtonen, he of the Racist tattoos second only to Melvin Costa. Remember the hue and cry about that? People were considering boycotting promotions he was in? Interesting that he’s wearing a shirt in that weigh-in pic. I wonder if he’s going to fight with one, too.

Sean Salmon?

Didn’t he just admit to losing a fight intentionally? why would a promoter want him on their fight card?

Sigh...

We need more informed fans.

It’s in Finland, man. Nobody gives a shit in Finland about some thrown fight.
