“We do plan on doing some co-promotion..." M-1 Global’s Vadim Finkestein told MMAWeekly.com. "Not just when Fedor fights, but even probably not on the next show, but the show after that, we’ll have some M-1 fighters on the co-promoted show with Strikeforce as well.”
Finkelstein also hopes to sign a TV deal with the Showtime at some point this year.
“It’s something that’s separate, but something that we’ve been discussing for a long time with Showtime, separate from the M-1 Global participation on the Fedor shows. We have our product M-1 Challenge, which we’ve been harvesting and developing for a couple years now, and Ken Hershman himself flew to Russia and saw one of our shows, saw some of the fighters that we have under our banner."
“It’s something that’s been on parallel tracks, we’ve been discussing for quite a while and, in fact, something that’s not completely done in terms of having these M-1 Challenge shows on Showtime, but it’s certainly something we’ve come much closer to. Hopefully, we’ll be able to conclude that separate business with Showtime.”
“We’re almost there."
