Vasilevsky said the fee for the fight with Kovalev will be one of the highest in his career.

Russian MMA fighter Vyacheslav Vasilievsky told he would receive one of the biggest fees of his career for a fight with Vladislav Kovalev.

Kovalev, nicknamed Belaz, and Vasilevsky will have a second fight under the rules of boxing with MMA gloves in November this year at the FC Ural tournament in Nizhny Novgorod. In the first fight, which took place in May, Vasilevsky won by decision, but after an appeal, the judges’ decision was changed and the fight was declared invalid.

— Is it true that the fees you will now receive are among the top 3 of your fees for fights?

– Yes, I think so. Initially, at the end of our first fight, one of the journalists asked me if I would agree to a rematch. I said that the fee should be three times higher if the league wants revenge. Now it turned out not three times, but certainly twice.

— You work in television, how many months of filming overlap with 10 minutes in the ring with Belaz?

“There, the filming process is divided into seasons, which are longer and longer, but if you count it, it takes several months,” Vasilevsky told .
