43 wins. only 27 years old. 2 time winner of the Bellator MW Championship Tourney. fights hector lombard for the second time and i'm already picking him to win by 4th round Knockout by brutal knees after lombard tires from throwing his bombs.

I don't really like Lombard too much, I'll be rooting for Shletzadeleshlemenko.

UFC's MW division is pretty weak, I'd love to see him in there.

Hes exciting and pretty good, only Manhoef has a better % of finishes with anywhere near as many fights. I think Shlemenko could crack the top 10 in the UFC's MW

Man knows how to throw the spinning backfist well (though he somewhat becomes a tad predictable due to overusing it) and has decent TDD and great striking. Despite the amount of fights he's had he's still has that raw feeling to him but I think he's starting (or about to) hit is peak and will work on any flaws he has and become even more of a beast.

this thread was made a long time ago but needed to be brought back.  no way he losses on thursday unless some freak injury or stupid ref call.  this fighter trains the other two best russians on the bellator roster. i would love to see what he would do vs bisping. russian fighters > british fighters.
