“Vladimir was very good. He hit hard and accurately. I underestimated him a little. Everyone said I had little chance, but I had confidence in myself. Now I can confidently say that he is a great boxer. We had a quick chat and put the past behind us. I want to express my respect to him as a person and an athlete. He was great today. But I will still move him to MMA,” Ismailov said.
Mineev and Ismailov have already fought twice. In October 2021, Mineev won, and in 2018 their fight ended in a draw.
