Kamil Hajiyev arranged for Alexander Emelianenko his last professional fight at this time under the rules of MMA. It was December 2021, Emelianenko had lost in the first round. The fighter’s manager at the time was Azamat Bostanov, but after his arrest he was replaced by former journalist and videographer Nikita Burchak. Kamil also calls Emelianenko an unofficial nickname for AE. The rest you will learn from questions.
– Today there was an interview with Burchak, and he walked on you a little. He said you are leaking information about Sasha, but you are not helping him.
– That’s Nikita’s chatter. How should I help him? Emelianenko who for me? The closest person? Or Nikita means I don’t give him fights. Maybe now, by “helping Alexander Emelianenko”, they want to give him fights, profit from the nonsense that is happening? It is his [Никиты] subject. I swear, I won’t be watching the next AE fight if things continue like this. What should I do? Should I take her to the clinic? Let Nikita do it, he makes money on it. So I don’t think he’s in the right place at all.
– There was a quote: “Kamil gets a quote when giving interviews before tournaments, mentioning Alexander.”
– Listen. They ask me, I answer. No more. I would like to talk about Alexander if there was a new topic of conversation. There is no new topic. My quote from yesterday that brothers can only meet at funerals… Someone asked me, and I answered. And now I’m not going to sit down and throw it away. I get quotes at AE’s expense, AE gets quotes at my expense. It also started vacuuming, so I didn’t start it. In the podcast before the fight with Yershov, he started vacuuming me up, like I ruined the organization. I answered. At the same time, no matter what people say, I’m one of those people who are really sad about what’s going on with AE. And I used it exactly when it could more or less show something. He lacked a bit of preparation in the duel with Santos, but he looked good. And those who are now trying to say that are people who are taking advantage of the current situation. And then it will end very badly, so they will seek extremes: “It was not me who pulled him up for this fight, it was not me.” When he’s taken to the hospital from the cell, and we all understand that’s going to end. If he becomes wiser, he will scatter everyone around him.
– You said that Alexander called you drunk. The manager said that Alexander even deleted your number.
– There is a circle of people: me, Azamat some time ago, a couple of fight organizers who once a month received calls from Alexander at night. No negativity, you don’t even understand if he’s drunk or not. He just called, he said, “Healthy. Ho are you doing? Are there fights, no fights? Just call like this: “If there are fights, call. I have to fight this or that. Hasn’t called lately. Maybe he doesn’t know my phone number. Or it doesn’t at night. We haven’t been in contact for three months. And Nikita has been working with AE for over a year. You can throw as much poo at yourself as you want, but it quickly and confidently flies down. There was a moment when he was at least uplifted, brought to his senses. And now everyone understands that he is flying in the descent, and we have to have time to offer him a, second, third on this descent. But you asked, I said. You can’t post or else they will say Kamil is hype again. But you understand, you go to the tournaments.
– Did you try to offer Fedor Emelianenko a boxing match?
I’m not good at boxing. When a boxing promoter hears about this, he must immediately understand what it should look like, which channels are international, some kind of international brand. I don’t have such a mastery of boxing, so a little not for me. I don’t know how to monetize the fight between Roy Jones and Fedor Emelianenko, how much to spend on it. Suppose that three million dollars is 250 million rubles. How can you invest 250 million in Russia and somehow justify that money? Well, that’s not realistic. A few years ago, bookmakers gave money in a race, but now everyone has started counting money. I don’t know where to get the money for this fight. Mark the arena – ok. TV – okay. And now what? An American organization could do it. The same Bellator – UFC practices boxing. Bellator could also do a boxing night. Fedor is their hero. Roy Jones is basically an American hero… With a Russian twist. But in Russia, no one will. I do not believe.
The next UFC Fight Night tournament will take place on June 18 in Las Vegas (USA), in the main event the Italian Marvin Vettori and the American Jared Cannonier will meet. Watch the live broadcast on the channel from 5:00 a.m. (Moscow time) on Sunday, as well as from 1:55 a.m. (Moscow time) on the Match! Fighter” and the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru websites. Arman Tsarukyan and Joaquim Silva will also fight in the tournament.
