Mixed Martial Artist, AMC Fight Nights Middleweight Champion Vladimir Mineev on the air of the program “There is a theme!” on announced that he will spend the last stage of preparation for the fight with the Brazilian Fernando Rodriguez in Mariupol.
Reportedly, Mineev will fight Rodriguez on November 18 before heading to the NVO zone. The fight will take place according to the rules of kickboxing.
– The leadership of the unit unambiguously expressed its opinion on the possibility of holding the upcoming fight. The prestige of the Russian Federation, our federation of mixed martial arts, kickboxing, our club and, of course, my reputation depends on it. Therefore, there is such an agreement. I am currently at home, continuing to prepare as usual. Provided all necessary documents to the unit. I await the decision of arrival.
I am now preparing for enlistment and combat.
How do you prepare the service?
– There are certain documents that must be submitted to the unit. The fact is that the training of military and reserve officers with combat experience is being organized. I do not fit into this category. I made the decision to go there myself. The summons came, I already presented myself at the military enlistment office. I clearly decided that I would serve. In my case, there is no such thing that I have to come to the point of selection right now. But since I decided to sign a contract with the Russian army for another year, I had time to prepare and fight.
Now I am often in Mariupol. And most likely, the main training for the battle will take place there. Now the city is restored by the forces of the Russian Federation, now it is already the Russian Federation. Part of the city was taken by Ulyanovsk builders for restoration. And I’m going with our delegations. I am an advisor to the governor for sports, overseeing the construction and restoration of sports facilities and infrastructure. Soon we will organize competitions for children there, restore sports clubs and martial arts clubs and revive the life of the city in sports, because it is one of the socially important tasks.
I will arrive in Mariupol with my team and we will prepare for the battle there. And from there I will go to Moscow to fight,” Mineev said on .
Mineev is the head of the Russian Martial Arts Union of the Ulyanovsk region. Vladimir’s younger brother Peter served in the airborne forces under contract. He died at the very beginning of the special operation.
Vladimir Mineev, 32, has won 16 MMA fights, lost one and ended in a draw.
