 I understand he is one of the best in Europe (& referred to as Russia's #1 185lb fighter)...  I also understand he's exciting.  & I know he's fighting tomorrow on ShoXC.



BUT, that's all I know.  Does anyone have a scoop on him, and is the hype real?

So pretty much a sucess story in his case...

He got an offer from the UFC, but turned it down because it was "too restrictive."

He was reportedly in talks with DREAM, and may fight there in the fugure.

He is possibly a bit undersized for 205.

Competed in European ADCC trials.

Alexander is a very talented young fighter. With very good striking skills, good all around Muay Thai game and very exciting. He also has a great chin.

His ground skills are still being developed, but he is improving. He has no boring fights, plus he is a very humble guy.

Jon "Kudlles" Kuhner will be fighting Deray Davis on the undercard. Weighn ins went great and so far they take care of the fighters nicely.

Can't wait for the tomorrow.

Scratch everything I said. I had him confused with Khalidov, who is on the same card.
