russian fighter Alexander Sarnavsky told that he would like to see the second duel between Alexander Shlemenko and Magomed Ismailov and in this duel, Shlemenko can achieve victory.
In early December, in Yekaterinburg, Ismailov defeated Shlemenko by unanimous decision in a five-round bout. Shlemenko, 38, has 61 wins, 15 losses and one draw. In 2022, the Russian lost to Serbian Alexander Ilic, tied the fight in his own tournament with Brazilian Kleber Souza and lost to Ismailov.
– I also had three defeats in a row. You know, there are such moments in a career – there are ups and downs. The most important thing is not to give up. We have to draw correct conclusions. I think he still has high level fights ahead, – said Sarnavsky “”.
– How do you rate Shlemenko’s performance in the fight with Ismailov?
– Tough fight. I thought Magomed Ismailov would impose a fight all round, but he worked from a standing position for almost the entire fight. It surprised me. I think Magomed Ismailov is capable of Alexander. If he prepares well, I think Alexander will pass. I would watch their rematch, that’s my opinion. But how interesting will it be for Ismailov? After all, after the fight, he said he wasn’t interested in the second fight.
