Former Bellator MMA champion Alexander Shlemenko on May 4 was back in his native Russia, where he met Viscardi Andrade in the Russian Cagefighting Championship 6 main event. It was Shlemenko’s 70th professional fight and marked his second appearance in the RCC cage, despite the fact that he was not under long-term contract to the promotion. Both of his RCC bouts were the result of single-fight agreements.
Shlemenko, 34, stopped Andrade with punches 3:37 into the third round. It was his 58th career victory and the 32nd by knockout or technical knockout.
