M-1 Global continues to build the line-up for its October 17th, M-1 Challenge show in Ingushetia, Russia, as the promotion has announced two more bouts for the card.

At lightweight, Artiom Damkovsky will fight Bashir Gagiev.

Damkovsky (17-9) is coming off consecutive victories over Victor Kuku and Zulfikar Usmanov, and is 3-2 in his last 5 bouts.

Gagiev (5-2), meanwhile, has scored wins over Zulfikar Usmanov and Victor Cook in 2014.

The promotion has also announced that Daniel “The Gladiator” Tabera (18-5-0) will fight Murad “The Hunter” Abdullayev (11-1), to determine a challenger for the vacant welterweight title.

Tabera earned a split decision win over Ilya Doderkin in his last outing, while Abdullayev will be competing for the first time in a year-and-a-half.

M-1 Challenge 52 will be headlined by a featherweight bout between Ivan “Buki” Buchinger (27-4-0) and Tural Ragimov (9-1-0) for the vacant, featherweight championship.
