On November 12, 2011, the M-1 Challenge 28 tournament was held in Astrakhan. In the main battle of the evening, Alexander Emelianenko entered the ring, returning to the battles, having missed for various reasons almost a year since the last fight. The fight was organized in a short time and it was extremely difficult to find an opponent for him at that moment, many simply did not agree to go out against such a formidable and eminent opponent on short notice.
As a result, eight days before the fight, a heavyweight from the Highlander club, Magomed Malikov, volunteered for the fight. Who at that time was the champion of the Southern Federal District in hand-to-hand fighting and the winner of the Caspian Cup in hand-to-hand fighting, and his professional record was 6 victories with 1 defeat.
What happened next caused a storm around the world of mixed martial arts and causes heated debate to this day.
