Russian fighter Alexander Emelianenko intends to speak less before the rematch with Vyacheslav Datsik and show everything during the fight, Emelianenko’s manager Nikita Burchak told .
At the beginning of March in Moscow during the Ural FC 6 tournament, a duel of views took place between Datsik and Alexander Emelianenko. The rematch between these fighters will take place at the Ural FC 7 tournament. Earlier, the general director of the league, Radmir Gabdullin, in a conversation with , noted that the fight should take place at the end of March – beginning of April.
In September 2022, Datsik knocked out Emelianenko in a boxing match in the 13th second.
“This time, Alexandre chose the tactic “talk less, do more”. You may have noticed it during their breakout at Ural FC 6. I admire Alexandre. Everyone saw the state he was in, but what a journey he had made. Every day, I see in him a way to surpass myself. This can only command respect. Compared to their first fight, we made big changes in preparation. But I won’t tell you the details.
— Don’t you see any risk in the fact that Datsik is Emelianenko’s first opponent after his rehabilitation?
— Alexander began to prepare not after leaving the rehabilitation center, but back in Ingushetia – he began to train and get in shape. And after his return, he began his combat work. In general, Alexander’s preparation for the rematch with Datsik will last about eight months. To answer your question, holding a second fight with Vyacheslav was discussed by all parties involved, everything was analyzed. Well, you have to admit that in this situation questions may arise not only about the form of Alexander, but also about Vyacheslav,” Burchak told .
Emelianenko, 42, has 28 victories during 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.
