—There must be a winner in a battle. And the name of this winner is Vyacheslav Vasilevsky. The fight took place on March 1st and I don’t care about that paperwork. Moreover, according to our regulations, it was possible to take one more round, but for some reason Belaz did not want to continue the fight to show that he was stronger. “I raised my hand during the battle, but what is happening now – snot, etc. – does not interest me,” Vasilyevsky told .
