M-1 LHW Champ Sergey Kornev retires. Nemkov vs Safarov for the vacant title

The unexpected news came from the club's Legion. Reigning M-1 light heavyweight champion Sergey Kornev for family reasons forced to retire. The title is vacant and at M-1 Challenge 40, which will be held on June 7 in Ingushetia, Viktor Nemkov (16-4) and Saparbek Safarov (6-0) will fight for the vacant title.

Nemkov vs Safarov is the perfect titlefight imo. Nemkov was better than Vinny but Vinny managed to catch him in an amazing Gogoplata neck crank. I have Nemkov beating Vinny 9 out of 10 times. Safarov is an undefeated super talent but needs to work on his attitude. He didn´t get any fights in M-1 for a long time because of his behaviour during the weigh-ins against Narkun. Hopefully he´s more classy now and learned his lesson

Hope Nemkov takes the title. Will drop Kornev from the rankings next month (June).
