ASA League fighter, belt holder in the heavyweight category Evgeny Goncharov in an interview with he named them the best Russian heavyweights Alexandra Volkova And Sergei Pavlovich performing in the UFC.
Pavlovich and Volkov have been training partners for about a year and currently sit third and sixth, respectively, in the UFC heavyweight rankings. Goncharov holds the ACA heavyweight belt and the fighter is on a five-fight winning streak since 2020.
— Sergey Pavlovich fought for the UFC interim belt, Valentin Moldavsky was the interim Bellator champion, Anatoly Malykhin has the One FC belt. You have an ASA belt. Who would you call the best heavyweight in the world today with a Russian passport?
— I like Alexander Volkov and Sergei Pavlovich, I would put them both in first place. Anatoly Malykhin is good. I think he would have been second. Valentin Moldavsky would probably be third. He’s an explosive guy, we fought with him, he had a great fight. I don’t want to offend anyone, I don’t want to forget anyone, but these names come to mind.
—Who among these four would win the Grand Prix?
“It will depend on who will approach the fight and in what form, but they are fighters of the same level,” Goncharov told .
