Russian fighter Vyacheslav Datsik told that the hand injury suffered after a dog attack would not interfere with his fight with Alexander Emelianenko .
The rematch between Alexander Emelianenko and Datsik will take place on April 12 in Moscow and will headline the Ural FC 7 tournament. The format of the fight is boxing with MMA gloves, 5 rounds of 2 minutes. In September 2022, Datsik knocked out Emelianenko in a boxing match in the 13th second.
Earlier, Datsik told that in January he suffered a serious injury to his arm after a dog attack.
– Tell me how the hand is.
– How is your hand? Everyone saw that the ligaments were torn. Three fingers cannot be straightened. But this will not hinder the battle in any way. The main thing is that the flexors work, she clenches her fist. I can already hit her. So that’s enough.
– What weight would you like to fight with?
– It’s not a question of weight. And so, 200 kilos would be good. But there won’t be enough relief for a long time, that’s bad. At this weight, I probably won’t even catch Sanya,” Datsik told .
