BetCity Fight Nights 138 is set for June 6 in St. Petersburg, with promoter Kamil Gadzhiev confirming that the card will center on two welterweight Grand Prix bouts. Headlining the event is a matchup between Andrey Koreshkov and Gleison Tibau, while Sergey Romanov meets Andre Muniz in the co-main attraction.
Koreshkov, nicknamed "Spartan," carries an impressive 19-2-0 record into the fight. The 35-year-old stands six feet tall and has built a reputation as one of the more well-rounded welterweights on the Russian circuit, averaging 2.84 significant strikes per minute at 39 percent accuracy and an active 4.8 takedowns per 15 minutes. He has not recorded a submission attempt in his tracked career, suggesting a grappling game oriented around control rather than finishes on the ground.
Tibau is the veteran presence on the opposite side. The 42-year-old Brazilian southpaw out of American Top Team holds a 33-14-0 record compiled over a lengthy career. Standing five feet ten inches with a 71-inch reach, Tibau averages 4.08 takedowns per 15 minutes and has shown durability and wrestling consistency throughout his run. His striking volume sits at 1.95 significant strikes per minute at 31 percent accuracy.
In the co-feature, Sergey Romanov faces Andre Muniz, a 36-year-old Brazilian known as "Sergipano" who trains out of Tata Fight Team Montes Claros. Muniz owns a 24-8-0 record and presents a dynamic offensive profile: six feet one inch tall with a 78-inch reach, he lands 2.08 significant strikes per minute at a sharp 48 percent accuracy rate and averages 3.98 takedowns and 1.1 submission attempts per 15 minutes.
Why it matters
- Both bouts carry Grand Prix tournament implications at welterweight, meaning results will directly shape the bracket going forward
- Koreshkov versus Tibau pits a high-output grappler in his prime against a seasoned veteran with decades of high-level experience
- Muniz's well-rounded submission threat makes his clash with Romanov one of the more technically layered matchups on the card
