Crazy American versus Iron Ukrainian! Unbelievable comeback in the title fight! Landwehr vs Lezhnev

Описание: In the main event of M-1 Challenge: Battle in Atyrau on December 15, 2018, reigning M-1 featherweight champion Nate “The Train” Landwehr (USA, 11-2) took on Andrey “Iron” Lezhnev (Ukraine, 18-7).

Andrey Lezhnev fought in M-1 Challenge since 2015, he had 15 fights in just three years and proved that he fully deserves his nickname. Andrey lost to Timur Nagibin by decision, then he won in 9 of his 10 fights. He fought and won against the tough opponents like Mikhail Kuznetsov, Lee Morrison, Kurbanali Abdusalamov, Ilfat Amirov and Asikerbai Jinensibieke. Natural toughness and great work ethic helped Andrey to make a huge progress every time he fought in M-1, so eventually he deserved the #1 contender status and got the chance to fight for the featherweight title.

Nate Landwehr has been one of the most entertaining fighters in Russian MMA for the last few years. Crazy American who knows how to make top-level show both inside and outside the “rage”. All of his fights are the wars without any compromises, when the caution is thrown out the window and the only one fighter survives in the end of the battle.

Nate got MMA fans’ attention immediately when he debuted in M-1. His first three fights in promotion were highly entertaining, one of them was declared the best fight of 2018 in M-1. Landwehr won against Mikhail Korobkov and Viktor Kolesnik, after that he fought against the featherweight champion Khamzat Dalgiev in Dalgiev’s homeland Ingushetia and stopped him in the second round. The fight against Lezhnev was Nate’s first title defense, so he was 100% ready to give the fans in Atyrau “The Train Show” that they came for.

It was a true title fight, both fighters are tough and entertaining, plus Nate’s fighting and trash talking style made this fight so highly anticipated. You can be sure that when “The Train” and “Iron” will be in the “rage”, it’s going to be a battle for ages. These guys never disappoint the fans.
