After being moved up to champion, Alikhan Suleymanov will defend the ACA featherweight championship against Islam Omarov in the main event of ACA 150 at the CSKA Arena in Moscow. Sulyemanov was billed to fight the former champion Magomedrasul Khasbulaev who pulled out several times. Khasbulaev was stripped of the championship and Suleymanov was installed as interim champion, then later upgraded to full champion for his bout against Omarov. The winner of the fight will not only be content with the championship, but a fighter like Alikhan Suleymanov may be hoping to get the attention of Dana White.
