Russian mixed style fighter Magomed Ismailov commented on the postponement of the fight against Alexandra Chlemenko for December.
The fight was supposed to take place in August in Yekaterinburg during the RCC 12 tournament, but in the end, the famous fighters will not enter the cage until December.
The decision to postpone the date of the fight became known on July 12. Ismailov does not have time to restore his knee after a planned operation. Magomed is set to fight in September, but ultimately another option was chosen.
– I asked to postpone our confrontation with Sasha, because I will not be in good condition by August. Even though I thought I would. I warned in advance not to put anyone in an uncomfortable position – neither the RCC league, nor Sasha Shlemenko. He has big plans, it turns out. He was going to fight me, and after me, for some reason, he thought that in thirty days he would be able to crawl into another cage… Well, I don’t know, too sure of himself. Not too sure of them Shlemenko.
We will come back to this confrontation! We will definitely fight with Sasha! He will win those two fights, everyone will say “no, he’s everything, Ismailov has no chance”, and Ismailov will come out, and again at one point: “Sensation! He did it! Yes, Magomed Ismailov beats Alexander Shlemenko! Decision.” Good, so be it. KO, painful, all flew away. But we will leave the decision. You and your families – be happy, my friends! – he said.
Despite the postponement of the meeting with Ismailov, Shlemenko will still perform in Yekaterinburg at RCC 12. His opponent is still unknown, but will be announced soon. Immediately after the fight in Yekaterinburg, Storm will have another fight, only in his native Omsk.
– If I understand correctly, he will now fight in August, in September. But Magomed Ismailov will not be there, so maybe he will face such a task. How to hold two confrontations in two months? I wish him good luck, I hope he succeeds. So that we can go back to our confrontation and solve the problem. I offered him September, but Sasha, as a patriot of his country, Omsk, will fight in September for the city’s bicentenary, so we won’t be able to do it in September. It will take a little longer. Our fight will go beyond September,” the RCC press service quoted the fighter as saying.
