I remember Tyrone Spong from K1. If he will show the same striking speed in mma, then he has good chances against Kharitonov. Kharitonov is experienced, but his prime form was during Pride, Dream and Strikeforce, that is about 10 years ago. If Spong avoids ground game and submissions, he will win. Check out his 14-0 boxing and 107-7 kickboxing record. His wins were mostly by knockout, and on the other hand we have Sergey who hasnt fought a top fighter last years.

In the fight against Cheick Kongo, Sergey surrendered in less than 1 second after being trapped in a read-naked choke. He did not even try to get out. If he had wins by submission in the past, than I wound not count it as a huge advantage in his next fight.

Pfuuu, this is gonna be a tough one for Spong. It's always the same issue with stand-up fighters that transition to MMA, how will they make up for grappling and warding of submissions from ground-based fighters. Kharitonov has a solid number of submissions in his career and has had a ton of fights under his belt, so if he makes a smart decision and tries to take it to the ground as soon as possible, it could be bad night for Spong. It's still fighting and anything can happen, but the odds are not in favor of Spong.
Spong is a newcomer with only two fights in pro MMA, and he is facing veteran Kharitonov with 33 wins behind him, so it's not going to be easy for him.
Before coming to MMA he was doing great in boxing in kickboxing and he is noe training in Sanford MMA, Florida, so he won't gave up easy and maybe he wins like odds suggest.
He is a big favorite by bookmakers, that is why I think there is a value betting on Kharitonov to win.

Yeah, I'm with you on that. It's hard for me to think Spong
can come out of this a winner. I made that mistake with Gokhan Saki. Sure, Saki won his first match, but he was given a striker with far less experience. Kharitonov is another beast. Maybe he should have had a couple more fights before jumping up rank, but I don't know what those fights would be.

Good news for anyone who is following what Khabib Nurmagomedov is doing with his Eagle FC MMA promotion!
You can watch next event EFC 44 Kharitonov vs. Spong LIVE and FREE on FLX, so maybe it's good thing to register on their website early.
Fight card is looking very interesting with great co-main fight Rashad Evans vs Gabriel Checco.
There are some unknown fighters and I am sure Dana White scouts will be following this event for potential new UFC fighters.

First Invicta MMA event in 2022 is starting tomorrow with main event FC 45 and main event rematch Alesha Zappitella (9-2) vs Jessica Delboni (11-3) for atomweight category title.
Weight-ins are completed and fights are confirmed, and Delboni is big favorite to win if we look at odds, but she lost the first fight against Zappitella with split decision.
Invicta is only female only MMA competition, and many talents go from Invicta directly to top competitions later like UFC  and Bellator.


https://invictafc.com/

Invicta was, for the longest time, the supplier of fighters for UFC, but at times the quality did not match up with the level expected by UFC. I would like to see more avenues for women athletes where they can fight and still have a chance of fighting in the UFC. Some of the European fighters and ones coming from Asia are having a different path to UFC, and it's great to see that diversification. I think that brings the quality up a bit. Maybe some more avenues open in the US as well.

Somebody said that the there is no betting on KSW with crypto, but that is wrong and not true!
Many crypto sports bookmakers are offering MMA betting but they release odds few days before fights start.


i was ... but then the betting offers at the two bookmakers you mentioned are relatively new ... last year there were not yet the possibilities.
pleased me personally now very much that you can now also make bets on this event in crypto Smiley

next saturday the next ksw gala will take place in polish szczecin and will see two titles on the line and the return of a ksw legend.
I watched few KSW events, but it's not always easy to find stream and I don't know so well many of their fighters, but they are doing great work from what I saw.
Ziolkowski is a big favorites against Mankowski on paper and looking at odds but I don't know anything about them or their skills so I can't make any prediction now.

I am sure there are more websites with KSW markets but I don't use them so I don't know, and I am happy with websites posted above.

Do you know a bookmaker where is possible to bet on these fights with cryptocurrencies?

at the moment i don't know of any bookmaker where you can bet with cryptocurrencies on these ksw fights ... unfortunately also no polish bookmakers Tongue

It is a pity that we cannot bet on KSW with cryptocurrencies, it is possible that some bookmaker from the industry will set it soon.
But I didn't understand correctly your second part of comment  Roll Eyes Google found me several bookmakers with KSW .. https://www.wheretobet.net/mma/ksw/

It just takes time for people to warm up to crypto. Us talking about it here might help the case because otherwise, bookies might not know if there's any value in having a crypto option. I'd like to think that all of this is for a reason. But, it took a lot of time before you could find betting for MMA, so introducing crypto into the mix will take even more time. Some are doing it, but it's not on a big scale as we would like it to be.

next saturday the next ksw gala will take place in polish szczecin and will see two titles on the line and the return of a ksw legend.
Marian 'golden boy' Ziolkowski defends his ksw lightweight title against former welterweight champion Borys 'the tasmanian devil' Mankowski and light heavyweight king Tomasz Narkun welcomes the challenge of russia's Ibragim Chuzhigaev. the ksw legend & former middleweight champion Michal Materla returns at this ksw 66 and will face 'the assassin' Jason Radcliffe





Thanks for this update. I wonder what this federation looks like compared to others in Europe. I think that Tomasz Narkun fight against Ibragim Chuzhigaev can tell a lot. I do not know if ACA/ACB fighters have been in KSW before, but this fight can show what the level of both federations is.

This is not going towards Palencia personally, as I don't know who he is, but whenever I hear that some fighter is, in this day and age, a 10-0, I just can't help but wonder how much of his record was just orchestrated. I observed that in my local MMA scenes where fighters would get extremely easy, inexperienced fighters to beef up their score so they would be more attractive for bigger promotions. It's not really uncommon all that much. Some of them turn out to be great in the end, but 10-0 really doesn't say much on paper.
He was champion in LFA or Legacy Fighting Alliance is American MMA competition so he is not some low quality street fighter and Scott Cooker won't hire just about anyone for his Bellator.
I know that LFA had multi year contract with UFC, and I am not sure if that is still valid, but it shows that they have talents, and examples are Henry Cejudo, Kamaru Usman, and Valentina Shevchenko who all came from LFA to UFC.

I will surely post this upcoming event that presents some Filipino fighters, and that is  Jeremy Miado and Robin Catalan I will look at some of their stats and records.
That heavyweight co-main fight Roman Kryklya vs Murat Aygun does look interesting Kickboxing fight, and I think they are going to broadcast this event for FREE on youtube again, so why not watch it.
It is a nice warmup for more serious UFC competitions that start few days later.

Russia for Fedor's retirement is a no-brainer. He's the biggest star there, followed by Japan and Europe. He has some fandom in the US, but not even close to Russia. And Baders having scheduled fights...well, I'm sure things can be rearranged Smiley
I know people from all over the world who still considers Fedor to be best MMA fighter ever, and I think that he is one of the top heavyweight fighters ever.
Dana White for sure don't like that Fedor never signed for UFC, but money is not most important thing for him.

It sure is interesting that is why I have posted it here, especially it is a kickboxing fight and I am still waiting for a good fight in the UFC, and the upcoming fight of Francis Ngannou VS Ciryl Gane I think that is a very big fight in the making, but a Light Heavyweight fight Between Roman Kryklia VS Murat Aygun is a sight to behold I think that Roman Kryklia will be faster than Aygun in my opinion, but Murat Aygun surely has the firepower to KO Kryklia so Roman Kryklia needs to be faster in my opinion, but for me the Strawweight fight Senzo Ikeda VS Jeremy Miado was the one I want to support also another Strawweight, Robin Catalan VS Elipitua Siregar, and if it's going to be free then I can definitely analyze and look further if they surely got what it takes to take a closer look, for the Roman Kryklia VS Murat Aygun I am going with Roman Kryklia.

News from Bellator MMA is saying that Scott Cooker signed LFA bantamweight champion Richard Palencia, who is undefeated with perfect 10-0 record.
I never watched him before and I couldn't find any of his recent fights on youtube, but he is great potential and in his prime with having 31 years.  
Andrey Koreshkov vs Mukhamed Berkhamov is new fight added for Bellator 274, and Bellator is planning to make Liz Carmouche vs Juliana Velasquez for flyweight title in April.

Now that's more like it. Something worthy of Fedors retirement. Hope they can finalize the deal.
I think that he is going to demand that his last fight should be in Russia again, and I think that he can defeat Ryan Bader in front of home crowd.
Now it's Scott Coker turn to arrange everything, and it's not going to be easy to fit everyone in 2022 schedule, because Bader is fighting soon with Moldavsky on January 29 in Bellator 273.

Also, Rizin hosted their annual new year's event. I am not that familiar with the fighters that are usually connected to Rizin, but here are some results.
I don't follow Rizin that much because they mostly have unknown fighters from Japan, but this time Brazilian Roberto de Souza won Lightweight Championship belt against Yusuke Yachi.
He has only one defeat in Rizin and maybe it is possible for him to get signed for Bellator or UFC.

As far as Rizin, I just love the fact they are trying every year, and no one really cares. I mean, they had some notable names in the past, but this time it was really slim. They could be known in Asia, I can't really tell, but even by Rizin standards, this was a lesser event.
