Russian promoter Kamil Gadjiev In an interview with , he explained under what conditions Vladimir Mineev And Magomed Ismailov can arrange a third fight under MMA rules.
Mineev, 34, the AMC Fight Nights middleweight champion, will fight under boxing rules with MMA fighter Ismailov, 38, on July 20 in the Moscow region. Previously, Mineev and Ismailov fought two fights under MMA rules in 2018 and 2021, which ended in a draw and a victory for Vladimir, respectively.
– Magomed says that if he wins, there will be a fourth fight – according to MMA rules. Will Vladimir Mineev even agree to this, will he want it?
– If he loses, then yes, I think he will want to. For Vova, not everything is so clear from a career point of view. Much does not depend on him. It seems to me that the question will not arise at all: no one will remember the fourth fight of the evening.
I think a lot of work has already been done, because they have changed over these three years. They themselves say that they will never be the same again. Magi has injuries, signed contracts with ASA and has ups and downs. Vova has an SVO, leaving MMA. And yet, we somehow got them back. Simply because we probably know them better. Will we see each other again in three years? It will obviously be more difficult. But for this to happen, Maga must win. This is at least the first condition, and it will be better for the industry, ”Gadjiev told .
