Although he was able to stop Alim Ozhev in the quarterfinals, held on August 11, 2016, and Surik Magakyan in the semifinals, held on September 22, 2016, he suffered a unanimous decision loss to Nikolay Lushin in the tournament finals, which were held on November 11, 2016.[6][7]

Checkhonin participated in the 2017 Kung Fu World Cup two months later, as the one-day tournament for the KFWC Savate Pro World -80kg title was held on January 24, 2017. He was able to overcome Nicola Gallo by unanimous decision in the semifinals, but suffered a split decision loss to Mehdi Kada in the finals.[8]

Checkhonin fought in the -80 kilogram event of the 2017 Tatneft Cup as well, but lost the semifinal bout against Sher Mamazulunov by an extra round decision, after he himself won an extra round decision against Dimitris Chiotis in the tournament quarterfinals.[9] Chechhonin would go on to lose two more fights, by decision to Mamuka Usubyan at Fair Fight IV on September 30, 2017 and by knockout to Artur Kyshenko at Kunlun Fight 68 on December 17, 2017.[10]

Checkhonin made his SENSHI debut against Aslan Saduakas at Senshi 2 on April 20, 2019.[11] He won the fight by a first-round knockout.[12] Checkhonin then captured the Senshi Middleweight tournament title with second-round stoppages of Mohammad Amin Asadi and Ruslan Nasibulin at Senshi 3 on July 3, 2019.[13]
