“We plan to organize Monson’s farewell fight in Ufa against Taktarov. Tentatively, the fight will take place in the second half of November. We considered it right to hold the fight in Ufa, since Jeff became deputy in the parliament of this republic.”, Khryunov told SE.
On August 18, Taktarov and Monson did not identify the winner of the co-main bout of the REN TV Fight Club boxing tournament. After the fight, Taktarov announced his desire to have a second fight, but under MMA rules.
