MMA fighter training in Yekaterinburg Alexander Emelianenko answered a question from a correspondent about how his birthday went this year, noting that he hadn’t had any alcohol on the holiday.
On August 2, Emelianenko turned 41. Earlier, the athlete admitted that he had given up on alcohol, saying that “alcohol and sport are incompatible”.
– Many speak badly of me, call me an alcoholic, but they themselves do not come down from the bottle. They have already become the norm for everyday beer drinking, beer alcoholism and that’s it. And if Emelianenko drinks it once every six months, then immediately “drunk … drunk …”. But now I even quit drinking every six months. Everything, I tied up with booze.
– Is there any certainty that this will not happen again?
– Well, you watch over me, and you will know everything. Next. So far, I am organized like this.
– Your birthday was August 2. What did they drink that day?
– I didn’t drink anything, I didn’t even celebrate, I didn’t celebrate, I didn’t call anyone. I celebrated my birthday once in my life when I was 16.
– How was it?
– It was a long time ago. Parents prepared everything at home, left for the dacha with an overnight stay, left me, Fedya was left in charge. I don’t even remember how we noted: we called friends, acquaintances, we have a four-room apartment. Someone stayed with me, someone went home, Emelianenko said.
The next fight of the Russian fighter will be on August 24 against Vyacheslav Datsik according to boxing rules.
