In early 2023, 46-year-old Emelianenko announced his retirement from MMA, but continued to train with Team Fedor fighters.
– For me, the news of a possible possible fight between Tyson and Emelianenko was unexpected. I don’t know how Fedor needs this fight… If there is a real fight, it is, to say the least, an adventurous story. Yes, Mike Tyson is older than Fedor, but the level of boxing is fundamentally different, despite Fedor’s boxing experience. Emelianenko fought with Denis Lebedev and did it competitively. I’ll say it again, if this is a real fight…Tyson, even in his current form, is an order of magnitude better. It is an adventure story for Emelianenko. And whether this fight is necessary or not – Fedor knows best. Apparently a lot of money is at stake,” Minakov told .
