Oct 14, 2011 11:00 PM EDT Grand Canyon University Arena in Phoenix, Arizona, United States
M-1 Challenge 27 will take place Oct. 14, 2011 from Grand Canyon University Arena in Phoenix, Arizona at 11 pm EST/PT (West Coast delay).
The event was meant to be headlined by a rematch between M-1 Global heavyweight champion Guram Gugenishvili and Kenny Garner, but an elbow injury has forced Gugenishvili to withdraw just days prior to the event.
Garner will now face Maxim Grishin for the M-1 interim heavyweight title while light heavyweight champion Vinny Magalhaes defends his belt against Mikhail Zayats in the co-main event.
