Mr. Michael Lynch contacted me a few months ago wanting a world class championship belt that a world champion was going to be proud to wear.

A long time before a certain Fedor Emelianenko made his name as one of the most feared in the world, there has already been a russian sambo-combatant, who caused furore on the international MMA scene, Oleg Taktarov.
