Magomed Magomedov, nicknamed "Tiger", is one of the most talented bantamweight fighters in Russia. He became the first champion of Russia and Europe in mixed martial arts, won the World Cup in Wushu Sanda and the Martial Arts Olympics in the section of hand-to-hand combat. Well, all MMA fans in our country know about his two fights with Petr Yan and the ACB champion title.
Now Magomed is successfully competing in Bellator tournaments, and we will remember his first professional fight at the M-1 Challenge tournaments, which took place on February 27, 2013 in Orenburg.
The rival of the Russian fighter was the Polish athlete Damian Stasyak, who had a black belt in karate and a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. In the future, he will play in the UFC, and then will be one of the main contenders for the championship belt in the Polish promotion of KSW. For the fight with Magomed, Stasyak prepared his main weapon for a long time and carefully, in the form of a perfected painful hold, twisting the foot. But the Pole did not even know that a big surprise awaited him.
