All M-1 Challenge 27 Competitors On Weight
Only days after an injury to M-1 heavyweight champion Guram
Gugenishvili altered the
M-1 Challenge 27 main event, all 14 fighters competing on the
card made their contracted weights.
Thursday’s weigh-ins saw new headliner Vinny Magalhaes tip the scales at 204 pounds for his inaugural light heavyweight title defense against Mikhail Zayats (205).
In light of Gugenishvili's injury, No. 1 contender Kenny
Garner (255) will now lock horns with former title challenger
Maxim
Grishin (220) for the interim heavyweight title, which will
presumably be unified once Gugenishvili recovers from a dislocated
elbow sustained in training.
Also featuring a middleweight bout between Arthur Guseinov (185) and Eddie Arizmendi (186), as well a welterweight contest pitting Tom Gallicchio (170) against Daniel Madrid (165), the event goes down Friday evening from Grand Canyon University Arena in Phoenix.
Airing on Showtime at 11 p.m. ET, the evening's main card will also feature a 170-pound affair between Yasubey Enomoto (168) and Josh Thorpe (166).
