By Alexey Uralets and Alexey Sukachev

Two days are left before the first ever world championship fight takes place on Russian soil. Here is the latest news on the show, co-promoted by German Titov, Kirill Pchelnikov and Art Pellulo of Banner Promotions, which will take place on March 26 at DIVS in Ekaterinburg, found in the very heart of the Ural Mountains.

Possibly, the most intriguing showdown of the whole night will be a heavyweight collision between teammates Vyacheslav Glazkov (8-0, 6 KOs) of Ukraine and rugged Russian veteran Denis Bakhtov (33-5, 23 KOs). Both fighters are fully pumped up and ready to go in what promises to be a thrilling cross-roader.

Another fighter has been just recently added to the fight card. Welterweight Dmitry Mikhailenko (9-0, 3 KOs) will fight six rounds against veteran trialhorse Vadim Sufianov (6-12-1, 2 KOs), who lost his last seven fights. Mikhailenko is the winner of 2010 Supercup (previously known as the International Kostya Tszyu Cup) beating Alexey Glukhov (3-0, 1 KOs) in the final with the eighth-round TKO. This fight can be observed here.
