Russian mixed martial arts fighter Alexander Emelianenko on his page on social networks announced the signing of a contract with the Ural FC promotion.
The 42-year-old fighter has 28 victories in his MMA career, suffered nine defeats and one of his fights ended in a draw. Since last summer, he has been undergoing rehabilitation in Ingushetia.
“I have been playing this sport for many years and a lot of things were against me. I have had formidable adversaries, but my most formidable adversary is myself. I fell to the bottom and rose to the stars. Many people criticize me, but first put on my shoes and follow the path I have taken. Difficult times create not only dangers, but also opportunities. An opportunity to rise and do things well. Many expect me to give up and never get in the ring again. They are comfortable with this thought, because if they win, it will turn out that all excuses are just shameful emptiness. I am a warrior who had to go through a lot to be who I am, to be where I am. “I will win the fight, the main fight, in which the main opponent is myself,” Emelianenko said in a video posted on his Telegram channel.
