Russian ASA fighter Pavel Vitruk in a conversation with , he said he was sure of victory Vitaly Slipenko dueling with Ustarmagomed Hajidaudov .
The Grand Prix quarter-final match between Slipenko and Gadzhidaudov will lead the ACA 160 tournament, which will be held on July 21 in Moscow. Current ACA welterweight champion Slipenko has 16 wins and four losses. Gadzhidaudov has 16 wins and six losses in MMA.
— I am confident of Vitalik’s victory. I spent training camps with him in Kislovodsk. I know how this guy plows. I saw his attitude and his approach to training. He has such a forceful approach to business, which many miss. And Vitalik loves the process, and that’s the most important thing. I am confident in his victory. I will support Slipenko, after my fight I will definitely stay to support him. Although he will face a tough opponent. Ustarmagomed is fighting well, but I think the time is right for Vitaly Slipenko, Vitruk told .
Vitruk himself (16-6) will also perform at ACA 160 and fight in the bantamweight division against Brazil’s Maycon Silvan (18-7).
– I was supposed to fight Shamil Shakhbulatov, but he got injured. Unfortunately, our fight will not take place. But I will also be replaced by a good fighter who fights and punches. Maicon Silvan fights in two categories, he has been evolving in the ASA for a long time. All in all, a very worthy replacement. I am happy to have a fight at all, because when I was informed of the impossibility of holding a fight by Shamil, I thought that I would not fight at all on July 21st. But everything went well! It remains to make weight and fight. There are no confrontations with the opponent, a purely sporting component. But we will certainly please and surprise the viewer – we will show the show.
After this fight, I would like to challenge Josiel Silva, but he is already fighting Rustam Kerimov. As I understand it, at the top of the leaderboard, everyone is scattered among themselves. Let’s wait – you can beat someone else from Brazil. It’s always interesting with them, they are uncompromising fighters who perform well in the ASA,” Vitruk added in a chat with .
