Sergei Kharitonov vs Alexei Kudin Official for M-1 Challenge 43

Translation from Mixfight.ru:

M-1 Challenge 43 will take Place on November 9 and in the main fight of the evening mma star Sergei Kharitonov will meet Belarusian fighter Alexei Kudin.

Sergei Kharitonov began his mixed martial arts career in 2000 and in 2003 he signed a contract with Pride where he won against big names like Murilo Rua, Semmy Schilt, Pedro Rizzo, Fabricio Werdum and Alistair Overeem.  In 2011 he took part in the Strikeforce heavyweight Grand Prix and reached the semifinals by knocking out Andrei Arlovski.  Also, in recent years, Sergei had a number of kickboxing fights and recently beat the english fighter Daniel Sam at Glory 11.

Seven time world champion in Thai boxing Alexei Kudin didn´t have a good start in the M-1 Grand Prix 2013 as he lost to Chaban Ka. However after this defeat he had three consecutive knockout wins.

GREAT FIGHT.

This is going to be a war.

Agree, fantastic matchup considering Kudins background as thai and kickboxing World champion.

Sergei by an easy sub or GNP tko

I don´t think it will be that easy. Kudin learned his lesson against Ka and that´s his only submission loss in 23 fights.

This is one of the best fights they could have made for Kharitonov. Hopefully this leads to the inevitable Kharitonov vs Grabowski match up.. but more important.. hopefully it's an amazing fight in the ring like it is on paper!

M-1 has been growing talents for years but I think they finally decided to go all in and make the big fights every wants. Kharitonov/Kudin vs Grabowski/Garner is possible. Maybe we´ll see Kudin vs Garner

Will be great to see Sergei back fighting MMA. Looking forward to it. Hope he smashes Kudin.

Another birthday gift for me.
