Team Fabio Maldonado in the face of his manager Stefano Sartori filed a complaint in WMMAA global association for review of judicial decisions in the fight with Fedor Emelianenko.

WMMAA received a request for an appeal by Stefano Sartori, manager of the Brazilian fighter Fabio Maldonado. In a letter to Stefano Sartori asked an independent panel of judges to review the outcome of the fight between Fedor Emelianenko and Fabio Maldonado.

Due to the fact that the right to belong to the match organizer - the promotion company "FN", revision of the results of the match is only possible on the initiative of the company "FN". Nevertheless, given a query, and because of the responsibility for constructive engagement in professional sports community, particularly in cases of causing great public interest, WMMAA forced to initiate an external examination of the work of judges.

Also, this decision contributes to the fact that working in a duel judges licensed by Russian MMA Union, which is a member WMMAA, and the last is forced by Received request to evaluate how the arisen situation and the decisions of licensed sports referees.

Based on the foregoing, the President WMMAA, Vadim Finkelstein, by virtue of the powers delegated to him, decides:

- Arrange for an independent assessment and to designate responsible for the organization of this process general secretary Alex WMMAA Engelhardta involvement of a judge Marco Brusno (Netherlands);

- Marco Brusnenu charge to prepare a personal list of the judging committee with a view to providing expert opinion on the results of this battle, and the work of judges;

- To suspend the Chief Justice WMMAA Radmir Gabdullina of his duties as head of the jury WMMAA;

- Decision to the Judicial Commission to consider at the next meeting of the presidium WMMAA.

The following is a letter to the manager Fabio Maldonado:

Hello.

My name is Stefano Sartori, I - the manager of the Brazilian fighter Fabio Maldonado, and we write this letter with a view to officially protest the result of my client's fight against Fedor Emelianenko, which took place on June 17 Fight Nights 50 tournament.

We have revised post fight many times with cooled head and realized that in this game can not talk about our defeat. There's either a draw or victory for Fabio.

We won the first round with a score of 10-8, and do not talk about that any other in the world, in addition to the Official Referee of the bout would have stopped him. Fedor showed great courage and took the second round with a score of 10-9. The last round was very close. So it is more of a draw or a victory of Fabio.

We were very surprised to learn that all the judges, serves this battle, were Russians and worked in the Russian MMA Union, whose President is Fedor Emelianenko.

Besides, Radmir Gabdullin, the Chief Justice, the Vice-President of the Union of Russian MMA.

If this is not a direct conflict of interest, I do not know what else to call this situation. To get a fair impartial refereeing of the match, according to the letter, we ask you to provide independent team of international judges to review the results.

Due to the fact that Mr. Gabdullin told Russian media that our appeal will be rejected, and the fact that we believe that the Russian judges may be under great pressure in the case of our appeal, we do not see another for himself choice but to refer to the World Association of MMA (WMMAA), part of which is, inter alia, the Union of Russian MMA.

Before we finish, I want to say that I truly believe that Russian judges were not intended to deliberate harm to my client. From my point of view, a conflict of interest - a common occurrence when you judge a fight on who you personally knew and close. That is why we respectfully ask you to provide another independent team of international judges to review the outcome of the match.

Yours faithfully,

Stefano Sartori

Thanks Touch. VU


Doubt they overturn that fight. Fabio did nothing in rounds 2 and 3. Maybe 1 was 10-8, so it could have been a draw. Phone Post 3.0
