Quick read

ACA 204 in Omsk features a deep card highlighted by four heavyweights — Anton Vyazigin, Yevgeny Goncharov, Mukhumat Vakhaev, and Khadis Ibragimov — all checking in at 120 kg. The Alexei Shurkevich vs. Chersi Dudaev middleweight clash is a standout contest, with Shurkevich entering at 5-0 in ACA and Dudaev holding just one loss over the last five years. A victory for Shurkevich would place him firmly in the ACA title picture alongside Eduard Vartanyan, Albert Tumenov, Zhaksylyk Mirzabekov, and Abdulvakhab Magomadov.

ACA 204, set to take place in Omsk, is being promoted as the most stacked MMA card Russia has produced in 2026, featuring a heavyweight showcase and a middleweight main event with genuine title implications.

The headlining middleweight contest pits Alexei Shurkevich against Chersi Dudaev in what shapes up as a pivotal divisional matchup. Shurkevich arrives on a perfect 5-0 run inside ACA, and a win over Dudaev would push him squarely into the organization's title conversation. Dudaev has been nearly as consistent, carrying just a single defeat over the past five years. A Shurkevich victory would place him alongside established middleweight contenders Eduard Vartanyan, Zhaksylyk Mirzabekov, and Abdulvakhab Magomadov — as well as Albert Tumenov, the 34-year-old Russian known as "Einstein," who trains out of American Top Team and carries an 18-4 record. Tumenov lands 3.76 significant strikes per minute at 42 percent accuracy, making him one of the division's more active and durable offensive threats.

The heavyweight portion of the card is equally notable, with four competitors all walking in at 120 kg. Among them is Khadis Ibragimov, a 31-year-old Russian fighting out of Sambo Piter. Standing six-foot-three with a 78-inch reach, Ibragimov brings an 8-4 record and lands 3.55 significant strikes per minute at 49 percent accuracy — an unusually precise output for the heavyweight division.

Why it matters

  • Shurkevich's 5-0 ACA record makes him one of the promotion's most compelling middleweight prospects heading into the second half of 2026
  • A win over the battle-tested Dudaev would strengthen his case for a title shot in a crowded division
  • The four-man heavyweight presence at 120 kg signals ACA's continued investment in building domestic big-man talent
  • Ibragimov's combination of size, reach, and striking accuracy makes him a standout to watch in that portion of the card
