AMC Fight Nights light heavyweight champion Vagab Vagabov told which unit he serves in in the Special Military Operations Zone.
On February 24, the 37-year-old fighter will fight under kickboxing rules against Ivan Shtyrkov in Tyumen. Earlier, the fighter’s brother Islam Vagabov told Metaratings.ru that the AMC Fight Nights champion was serving in the Northern Military District zone.
— I have been in the northern military zone for about six months: two weeks there, two weeks at home. Signed a contract with the “Donbas Wild Division”, the “Arbat” battalion, it belongs to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The reason why you signed? I think everyone knows why people go there, I have a lot of friends, I found out that one of them serves there and I decided to go.
Now I will prepare 20 to 25 days before the fight. Either way, I’ve tried to maintain my fitness, so I’ll come out in great shape; in principle, I never needed long preparations,” Vagab Vagabov told .
Vagabov has competed in mixed martial arts since 2007, suffering only one defeat in 26 professional fights.
