MMA fighter representing the AMC Fight Nights league Marif Piraev talked about his teammate’s interview Rinata Fakhretdinova who called Piraev a “lost man” and said he “caught a star.”
In 2021, Fakhretdinov signed a contract with the UFC and has currently had three championship fights, winning three times. Piraev gained great popularity by performing exclusively in Russian promotions. The two fighters trained together for a long time in Moscow gyms.
— A fighter from your gym, Rinat Fakhretdinov (plays in the UFC welterweight category – editor’s note) said that you and Nurullo Aliyev have become stars. Have you seen this interview?
– They told me, but it’s not true. This is how the circumstances evolved. I was preparing in Krasnodar all the time, and the Evolve club, which I represented, is located in Moscow. Now I have already returned and I will prepare again with Rinat. It turns out that during preparation, during training, you withdraw a little into yourself and have no time for the phone. Rinat is my brother, I am available for him at any time. I will always support and help you. Before, we were together all the time, but now it’s like this: he went, I went too, and we don’t see each other that often anymore.
—Have you written to him?
– No, I didn’t write to him. He will soon win his fight, he will come, we will sit at the table, eat and talk. There is no quarrel, he is my brother, we will see each other, we will sit and talk, ”reports the correspondent of , reporting Piraev’s words.
