Alexander Shlemenko: Bout vs. Mousasi Will Determine 'True' Bellator Middleweight Champ

By: Tristen Critchfield Oct 17, 2017

“First of all, I do not want to think past this fight. No disrespect to Carvalho or Sakara, but I think the winner of my fight against Mousasi is the true Bellator champion,” Shlemenko said on the Sherdog Radio Network’s “Beatdown” show. “No disrespect to other guys but I think this fight is more important.”

Without a doubt

Without a doubt

totally agree. this has fight of the year written all the fuck over it

These guys combined has over 100 wins and they’re still young.

Shlemenko (59 - 9 - 1) at age 33,
Mousasi (42 - 6 - 2) at age 32

Pretty impressive numbers even though Shlemenko’s competition weren’t as great as Mousasi’s. Look at the roster of who Mousasi fought and has wins over is very very impressive.

I’m so excited for this fight!

I normally would disagree, but Carvalho is a piece of shit. So gotta agree 100%

I felt Gegard Mousasi destruction of Chris Weidman showed the World just how talented he is.

IMO, Mousasi is at his absolute Prime right now and Shlemenko (very talented) is in cruise control at this point in his career.

Gegard is going to obliterate Shlemenko ..it will be on par with his 2009 absolute annihilation of Babalu back in Strikeforce.

Hopefully after this fight fans will understand how good Gegard is and he will finally be recognized for his talents.



*could be wrong, anyone up for a screen name/ avatar bet?

is anyone putting money on Shlemenko? I think Moose takes it, but at +550 I'm tempted to throw 50 bucks
on Shlemenko for the upset

Schlemenko has one very big weapon that is incredibly overlooked and very effective. His body shots. People never mention them but he puts people away wth them.

Some UFC guys have come over and not had good luck in Bellator, but I feel like Mousasi takes this tonight.

I would be suprised if he lost. Mousasi at 50 fights is in his prime or hes mad and wants whats his either way i like.But im picking neiman to lose tonight. Only cause of that sweet dog money
