IFL ON HOLD, CHAMP MATYUSHENKO TALKS CONTRACT

Vladimir Matyushenko has been one of the real success stories of the International Fight League. Despite the promotion’s difficulties, he has remained a constant source of excellence since his debut for the company in 2007.

Currently riding an eight-fight winning streak, Matyushenko, the IFL’s current 205-pound champion, is eager to continue his winning ways, even though the IFL has placed their operations on hold.

He does need to get out of there... He needs to move on to bigger and better things.

The IFL is televised. I'm not sure how much bigger and better he can get unless he moves back to the UFC. And if I were him, I'd rather hold a belt in the IFL than fight for scraps in the UFC.

well there are other options out there for him to fight. with Dream and proelite if the IFL would let him fight there

I think he could do a lot better than fight for scraps in the UFC. He is easily top 5 out of the UFC at LHW and possibly number 1.

There isnt an org outside the UFC that he couldnt win the title in and he could even make a run at one in the UFC.
