Absolute Championship Akhmat has confirmed four bouts for ACA 204, set to take place on June 19 in Omsk, Russia, with the headlining clash between Alexander Shlemenko and Ramzan Emeev serving as the marquee attraction.
Shlemenko, nicknamed "Storm," is one of the most recognizable veterans in Russian MMA. The 42-year-old carries an impressive 56-9-0 professional record and represents his own Storm Shlemenko Fight Team out of Russia. Standing five-foot-eleven and fighting out of Omsk — the very city hosting this event — he brings considerable striking output to the cage, landing 4.36 significant strikes per minute at a 60 percent accuracy rate. That combination of volume and efficiency underlines why he remains a compelling draw more than two decades into his career.
No verified data was available for Emeev ahead of this report, though the matchup against a fighter of Shlemenko's stature signals the bout carries meaningful weight on the card.
The remainder of ACA 204 features three additional confirmed matchups: Alexey Shurkevich takes on Chersi Dudaev, Alexander Grozin meets Gleb Khabibullin, and Alexander Matmuratov faces Magomed Sulumov. ACA did not specify weight classes or title implications for any of the announced bouts.
Why it matters
- Shlemenko fighting in his home city of Omsk adds a storyline dimension to the main event
- At 42 with a record of 56-9-0, he remains one of the most accomplished active fighters on the Russian circuit
- The four-bout announcement gives ACA 204 a competitive foundation ahead of what could be a larger card as additional matchups are confirmed
