russian fighter Alexander Emelianenko said blogger Sviatoslav Kovalenko refuses to hold a second fight with him.
In December last year, Emelianenko lost to Kovalenko in a fight under the rules of boxing with MMA gloves. Before that in September Vyacheslav Datsik knocked out Alexander in the 13th second of a boxing match. Emelianenko’s MMA stats are 28 wins, 9 losses and 1 draw.
– I do not agree with the decision of the last fight with Kovalenko. I know who heads the judges’ commission, who needs it… I’m going to appeal this decision. This point has not been made. Kovalenko refuses to take revenge. He was offered a second fight, but he refuses, – the correspondent reports the words of Alexander Emelianenko.
The Russian fighter also described his next opponent, blogger Yevgeny Ershov, with whom he will meet on May 26 in Moscow in a duel under MMA rules.
– He’s not a hitter, not a puncher. He can fight all the fight he endures from start to finish. Don’t fight, don’t feel the fight at all. He is a good and practical opponent. I am constantly preparing, hitting the bag, working in pairs. I do everything a fighter does in the gym. From time to time, I post my lessons on social networks, ”added the athlete.
