Former Bellator Welterweight Champion (-77 kg) Andrei Koreshkov told how he had helped to prepare Alexander Shlemenko before the fight with Alexander Ilic.
Koreshkov has been Shlemenko’s regular training partner for over a decade.
– Did you have to hit your head more often in this camp, because Ilich can throw good haikiki and you always succeeded?
“I’m not as tall as Ilic and I don’t work as well as a left-hander, because after all, initially I’m right-handed,” Koreshkov told . And he’s left-handed. I kicked very often, even beat Sasha’s foot on the bleachers, and beat him seriously, I had a big bump on my shin. Even at one time, he couldn’t work hard for her. But I know Sasha’s reaction, he basically sees kicks, reacts to them, throws blocks, presses, and I think in this fight he’s going to work the same way.
– Was there anyone in the room with Ilich’s growth?
– There were guys taller than me, but they’re right-handed and probably better than me, they won’t be able to kick left-handed.
Shlemenko will face Ilic at RCC 12 on August 26. For the Russian fighter, this fight will be the first since October 2021.
