Another interesting match up has just been announced for Fight Club Rush 19! Welterweights Sevan “The Pirate King” Madenjian and Mashrab Mamadaliyev are now set to to battle at the next FCR event.
Madenjian trains out of the famed Allstars Training Center in Stockholm and is a former representative of the Belgian National Team in amateur MMA. He lined up two straight armbar wins when arriving in Sweden and made the move to pro in the summer of last year.
Taking on Danish striker Rasmus Elehrs, Madenjian did well on the the feet before taking the fight to the ground where he ended the fight via rear naked choke. Following that Madenjian went through a slew of opponent changes at Wolf Fight Promotion 9 before finally getting pitted against Mihajlo Rajic, winning via 30 second guillotine. “The Pirate King” now sports a 2-0 record and hopes to extend the winning streak.
Mamadaliyev represents C Team in Stockholm and has had ana active amateur career. He holds three (!) wins over former Swedish National Team representative Linus Lindeberg and has also defeated Firass Kaaki. Mamadaliyev has also fought the likes of Christian Stigenberg, Ola Jacobsson and Abdallah Habib.
Last spring Mamadaliyev made his pro debut against John Oldenqvist, eventually losing an exciting fight via knockout. With a 0-1 record Mamadaliyev now hopes to secure his first pro win.
