#1. Middleweight Bout - Antonio Gordillo vs. Dmitriy Batok:

In one of the first fights of the main card, Antonio Gordillo will represent Team India and take on Dmitriy Batok of Team UAE. Dmitriy Batok of Kiev, Ukraine, has had the support of his family with their love for Mixed Martial Arts to reach this point. He will have to take on Gordillo who has an amazing record of ten wins with only two losses.

A win for either fighter here would be a big deal.

Hemant Wadekar of India, Punjab is set to take on Hayder Hassan of the United States in this fight. Stepping in late to replace Haytham Elsayed.

Hayder Hassan does not have the best record in recent times with 3 losses in the last 4 matches, while Hemant Wadekar has only lost one of his last three. This fight is all about whether the newcomer from Punjab can stand up to the US Giant.
