By: Alex Williams, MMATorch Contributor Fighters Only Magazine reports "unconfirmed rumors" that Affliction has inked a deal with Blagoi Ivanov, the man who defeated Fedor Emelianenko en route to winning a World Combat Sambo Championship this past weekend.
Acquiring Ivanov, who has never fought a MMA bout, would appear to be a publicity stunt, though Fighters Only Magazine notes that in Combat Sambo, "competitors wear shorts, shin guards, a headguard, a gi top and MMA-style gloves, making it somewhat similar to an amateur MMA event."
DON'T GO YET... WE SUGGEST THESE MMATORCH ARTICLES, TOO!
