outfit have signed Ukraine’s Sergii Melnik in the Light Heavyweight category and Mihail Muntean in Heavyweight.

Hailing from Moldova, Muntean will strengthen the Indian outfit as he comes with a full season of WSB experience in his kitty. The 31-year old fought for Pohang Poseidons last season with an impressive 3-3 record. The heavyweight pugilist will hit the ring straight when Fighters take on Milano Thunder in their match in Milan on January 13, 2012.

Melnik, 24, is Ukraine’s No. 2 boxer, only behind the Ukraine and World No. 1 Oleksandr Usyk. Like his Light Heavyweight teammate Leanid Charnabayeu, a Belarus army man, Melnik too comes from the Ukrainian army.

The Fighters are currently fifth in Group A with seven points in their kitty. Dynamo Moscow, whom the Fighters host in their Round 7 match on January 20, 2012, also have seven points but have more wins compared to us and therefore a step ahead.
