Dmitry won the fight by a second-round TKO.[6] In the semifinals he fought Surik Magakyan, and won by a first-round TKO.[7] In the tournament final, Menshikov fought Sher Mamazulunov. The fight went into an extra fourth round, after which Mamazulunov won a decision.[8]

In his next fight, Menshikov won an extra round decision against Ljubo Jalovi.[9] He won his next two fights against Vasiliy Semenov and Аli Al Ameri by KO.[10]

Menshikov's next fight came ten months after his win over Prates. He was scheduled to fight Yoann Kongolo during Glory 69.[14] Dmitry won the fight by TKO, after the ringside doctor stopped the fight, due to a cut Kongolo suffered during the second round.[15]
