Belarusian kickboxer Pyotr Romankevich told that he was interested in a duel with Vladimir Mineev according to the rules of kickboxing and named the optimal conditions for such a fight.
Romankevich won several international tournaments and had six fights in MMA (4 wins, 2 losses). On the eve of the kickboxing fight with Ivan Shtyrkov in Yekaterinburg, Romankevich said in a interview that he was interested in a kickboxing fight against AMC Fight Nights middleweight champion Vladimir Mineev.
“I wonder if Vova is a serious name. Kamil Hajiyev once said about this fight that if I beat Fernando Rodriguez in August, then at the end of the year our fight [с Минеевым] can take place.
– It is clear that Mineev is much shorter than you. How much weight would you lose for this fight?
“We have to talk about the conditions here. Today I showed one hundred kilograms on the scale, and a week ago I weighed 110 kg. In principle, this weight loss was easy for me. Yes, I went on a diet, drank water, cut carbs, but gained weight even without professional nutritionists. If I approached this question competently, for someone to drive me, I would assume that I would be 95 kg. On the other hand, you have to see in what shape I will be, displaying 100 kg on the scale. When I weigh 107 kg, I feel fine, not a heavy immobile and comfortable to hit.
“And 93 kg?”
– I do not imagine such a figure yet, because it may be real in theory, but the question is how I will feel at such a weight. So far, I can’t imagine myself in this category,” Romankevich told .
Mineev held his last fight at heavyweight, beating Fernando Rodriguez by knockout.
