american fighter Lance Palmer said he was confident he wouldn’t have any problems at home thanks to his performance in the Russian ASA league.
The ACA Featherweight Grand Prix quarter-final between Russia’s Bibert Tumenov and Palmer will headline ACA 162 on September 2 in Krasnodar. Palmer, 35, has 23 wins and six losses. Palmer played in the PFL from fall 2017 to summer 2022. The upcoming fight will be the first for the American since leaving the PFL. Tumenov, 26, has 12 MMA wins and two losses. In December 2020, the ASA league was placed on the US sanctions list.
– I visited Russia in 2000 and it was cool. I fought in Daghestan and in Moscow. Russia is a very beautiful country. As for sanctions, American fighters have already fought in Russia and everything was fine with them. Therefore, I’m sure that I won’t have any problems thanks to my performance in the Russian championship. I am very happy to fight in the ACA and I am sure that I will have ghosts of your country after my performance in the organization.
I never underestimate my opponents. I respect all of his skills, but at the same time, I’m sure my skills in the cage are far more impressive than Tumenov’s. Biebert has very good boxing, but his wrestling is not at such a high level. I have a lot of five-round fights behind me, and I will drag him into “deep water” if necessary, said Palmer, whose words “” were provided by the ASA press service.
