Two-time Olympic champion Oleg Saitov spoke about his departure Fyodor Emelianenko from the position of President of the MMA Union of Russia.
Emelianenko has been leading the MMA Union of Russia since the organization was founded in 2012. In October 2018 he left this position, in June 2022 he was again elected to head the federation. Radmir Gabdullin was president of the MMA Union of Russia in place of Emelianenko from 2018 to 2022.
– If Fedor Emelianenko did this, then it should be so. He knows what he’s doing. He is an intelligent and knowledgeable person.
But I would like to say that MMA needs to be taken care of now. And the person who succeeds him must be sane and resourceful, know the sport and know the people. I think Radmir Gabdullin, who now leads the professional MMA league, will take care of the work within the federation, quotes RT Saitov.
