Chicago, IL-One of the IFL Grand Prix titles was decided tonight as Vladimir Matyushenko defeated Alex Schoenauer for the Light Heavyweight in what was for the most part a one-sided ground-and-pound clinic. Matyushenko seemed to tire near the end of the three four-minute rounds and Alex scored on the feet but in the end it was an unsurprising unanimous decision for Vladimir.
The other four weight class titles will be decided on December 29th as the winners of these fights square off. Expect more analysis and photos in the days to come but for now here are the quick results.
