Cruiserweight contender Grigory Drozd (33-1, 23 KOs) successfully came back to the ring after a year and a half off the ring winning against Lithuanian Remigijus Ziausys (13-34-1, 7 KOs) over eight on points.

Also, Maks Limonov (15-0, 8 KOs) outpointed Vasily Andriyanov (8-25, 1 KO) also over eight. Andriyanov has never been stopped in his career.
