Director Sergei Bilostenny Alexander Skaredin is confident that the Russian heavyweight will excel in the PFL fight league.
Friday evening in the USA, Bilostenny will face Bulgarian Blagoy Ivanov in the group stage of the PFL Grand Prix. Previously, the Russian had a contract with Bellator, the heavyweight fought two fights within this league. At the end of 2023, the PFL buys the Bellator league. Bilostenny, 28, has 11 victories and three defeats. Ivanov, 37, has 19 wins and six losses. From summer 2018 to summer 2023, Ivanov competed in the UFC.
— For Sergei, it’s a new beginning in a new organization. We have to prove ourselves and we understand that it is a Grand Prix, a lot depends on how the tournament goes, including the financial aspect. Sergey went through a good training camp, worked in Stary Oskol with our famous heavyweights, he is loaded and ready. We expect a solid performance from him. I think the time has come for Sergei Bilostenny. He has everything to leave a dazzling mark in the world of mixed martial arts. I can not wait to be there. Blagoy Ivanov is a famous and experienced athlete who competed in the UFC. But it is long past its prime. I would characterize the upcoming fight as follows: either Blagoy Ivanov remains at the top, or Sergey enters this top,” Skaradin told .
