Rival Alexandra Chlemenko , Kleber Souza, after a meeting with a Russian fighter that ended in a draw, told that he was ready for revenge, but at a higher cost. Souza, 37, had a full three-round fight with Shlemenko, who did not reveal the winner after the decision was announced:
– What did you think when you were called in front of the referee to announce the result?
– Of course, at the end of the fight, I saw that Alexander could not stand up, and I raised my hand. I think I won, I won this fight. I’m sure I won the first and second rounds. Round three – I doubt it, but in the third round he started throwing punches and they weren’t hard punches.
Need a revenge?
– There has to be a rematch, because if the public supported our fight and the public saw that I won, and that fight caused a stir, then we have to do a rematch. We are two heroes, we are MMA veterans, we have to meet again, I will sleep and dream that I have a rematch.
— What did you expect from Alexandre and what did you get?
“It was a real fight. Bloody fight, we fought until the end, it was a real show. I think the public got what they wanted.
– Alexander Shlemenko’s last rival asked for two or three times the amount of the first fight. How much should your fees increase?
– It will be a lot of money, I will ask for a lot, but we will have a big revenge. I think it’s around 50-60 thousand dollars. For this money we will fight again, there will be a bloody battle. Souza said after the fight.
For Shlemenko, this fight was the 78th of his professional career. The last time before that, the Russian went to battle in August and lost by technical knockout to Serbian Alexander Ilic.
