The promo for Askerov Vs Kyshenko

Legend knows how to put on a show. They should have an mma HW Grand Prix.

I cant wait for the real combat shows to start!!

Legend, Glory and Bellator

Legend showed the world how to make an entrance. Zuffa should take a look at this..

Cool event. They should add some MMA to this.

If LFS continues on their current path, I have no doubt they will become the biggest combat sports org in the world in 10 years.

Oh look, the K-1 HERO*S knockoff returns  8)

That tournament looks pretty sweet, though.

The Multiple medalist and  world Muay Thai champ, winner of the Cup "Tatneft-2012" Enrico Gogokhiya is back again in the ring.Enrico will meet with one of the most promising Prospect of Italian Alessandro campagna.

Sittichai Sitsongpeenong vs Mohamed Khamal

The Confrontation promises to be interesting, as both athletes are very strong and versatile.
 
Sitichai - a Thai fighter, he is 22.  Despite such a young age, he have an impressive amount of fights - 96.  He hold an impressive record of  65 wins, only 26 defeats,  and 5 draws.  After spending his first fight at the age of 11, Sitichai pretty quickly became one of the darlings of the cult of the stadium "Lumpini" hitting on the rankings welterweight fighters, and later - the star of Muay Thai world scale.


Mohammed Kamal manage to establish itself as a tough fighter   During his professional career, despite his young age,He hold a record of  43 wins, only 5 defeats,  and 3 draws. He has already managed to win fight with many leading representatives of K-1 and Muay Thai (Robin van Roosmalen 2 times, Artur Kyshenko, Mosab Amrani).

Alexander Surzko Vs Paul Daley

This is not the first  time that the  British fighter will fight K-1 rules . The former Championships Cage Warriors, Strikeforce, Bellator, EliteXC, Cage Rage, BAMMA, Shark Fights and, of course UFC fighter, Daley admitted that his favorite martial art form is Muay Thai .  This is confirmed by his fights by the rules of mixed martial arts, all of which he showed great striking technique.

 His opponent is a multiple winner of the amateur and professional tournaments in Thai boxing and kickboxing in k-1, a master of sports in Thai boxing, Alexander Surzhko. Debuted on the professional ring in 2009, Alexander has already managed to win the love of the public. Had 18 fights with 14 wins. In his last fight against t Artur Hakobyan In W5 he confidently won on points. 20 October 2012 year Russian Grand Prix Alexander opened one of his most brilliant victories, scored sending his opponent in a knockout Yusupova Jamal.

Oh lame, I thought it was going to be a one night, eight man tournament What they do promise to deliver is still an extremely solid offering.

Daley might have a new career in kickboxing. He knocked out a top five kickboxing welterweight in what I believe was his debut? I don't know how much he has exactly dabbled in kickboxing, but regardless, that is still an impressive victory.

Excited for Mo Khamal's fight too. You could say Khamal is in consideration for best non-thai Muay Thai practitioner. Sitthichai is coming in with a lot of momentum too and I think we're going to see a great fight.

Pavel Zhuravlev vs. Tomasz Szczepkowski


April 5 in Milan on "Legend 3" fight show  in the superfight at K-1 rules Ukrainian Pavel Zhuravlev meet with Polish Tomasz Szczepkowski.
Pavel Zhuravlev already performed at the Legends Tournament:on  Legend 2 in Moscow Pavel knocked Sahak Parparyan and Agron Preteni, to win the title "Legends" 93 kg.
His opponent Polish Tomasz Szczepkowski is a frequent participant in boxing tournaments Bigger's Better, and also has more than 40 professional kickboxing fights

they really need to give Aleks one more chance, put him up against a zombie CroCop atleast.

They should definietly try to make that fight before it´s too late. I wonder why there are no mma fights on this card? Looks good anyway.

Just look at how many Russian based MMA promotions there are right now. That area of the world might be the current hotspot for talent, but there's only so much talent you're able to acquire. Looks like Legend has gone down the road of quality, instead of quantity.

Dzhabar Askerov Vs Murtel Groenhart
The Matchmaker of  tournament "Legend" Vladimir Voitekhovsky said: "Today Announce, That  Artur Kyshenko said he did not able To make the weight of 71 kg, therefore he refuses to participate in the upcoming battle with Askerov."
