Russian Alexander Matmuratov lost unconditionally to his compatriot Yusuf Raisov at the ACA 165 tournament, but positives can be taken from this fight, Matmuratov’s manager Alexander Skaredin told .
On Friday in St. Petersburg, Matmuratov lost to Raisov by unanimous decision in the co-main event bout of the tournament. Raisov, now lightweight, has 21 wins and three losses in MMA. Matmuratov broke his six-fight winning streak at the ACA.
— Yusuf was in one of his most motivated versions. Sasha missed several tactical points. All those kicks were useless as Raisov catches them. Yes, it is clear that Alexander lost without any options.
Now we have to recover, check our health and move on. Sasha always shows spectacular fights, the league and the public appreciate it. I think he will have many more fights in ASA. And this fight with Raisov somehow helped increase his media visibility. “Every situation has its positive aspects,” Skaredin told .
Matmuratov now has 15 wins and six losses.
The ASA 165 tournament was broadcast live on the channel.
