M-1 Global featherweight champion Ivan Buchinger discusses his upcoming fight at M-1 Challenge 62, Conor McGregor, the IV ban, and whether he plans to entertain offers from the UFC.
M-1 Global may be a promotion based in Russia, but one of its most dominant champions is far from a local talent.
In fact, he is Slovakian.
Ivan Buchinger made a name for himself on the Cage Warriors circuit as their lightweight champion before venturing over to Russia in 2014 to test himself as a featherweight fighter. Since then, he has won four fights under the M-1 banner and defended his title once.
