M-1 seems to be the new home for two former PrideFC fighters. Fedor Emelianenko recently signed a new contract with the Russian organization and Vale Tudo News is now informing us that Ricardo Arona can be added to their fighter list as well. According to the report, Arona has recently signed a 4-fight contract with M-1 and there are plans for him fighting on the fight card in December.
No opponents for the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu expert has been mentioned as of yet due to “contractual issues.” However, when Arona was asked if there was a possible match-up between him and Fedor in December, he quickly smiled and didn’t say a word.
