    • Denis Goltsov vs. Oleg Popov – for heavyweight championship
    • Impa Kasanganay vs. Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov – for light heavyweight championship
    • Shamil Musaev vs. Magomed Umatulov – for welterweight championship
    • Brent Primus vs. Gadzhi Rabadanov – for lightweight championship
    • Timur Khizriev vs. Brendan Loughnane – for featherweight championship
