Russian MMA fighter Vladimir Mineev dedicated the victory over Magomed Ismailov to a comrade who died in the Northern Military Region area.
On Saturday in Moscow, Mineev, 34, defeated Ismailov, 38, in a boxing match by unanimous decision. In September 2022, Mineev received a call-up and joined the Russian Armed Forces in February 2023. Several times, the fighter returned from the SVO zone to participate in fights.
“Thank you to everyone who cheered me on, to everyone who supported me in the stands and on TV screens. I will not list everyone so as not to forget anyone. The European Championship has passed, our confrontations are being watched. But I would like to dedicate the victory to my fallen comrade, group commander, second lieutenant Malovichko. My commander of the Lenin group died heroically, holder of the Order of Courage, second lieutenant Malovichko. The Kingdom of Heaven. And to all the soldiers who fell defending our land,” Mineev said after the battle.
