RCC league executive director Nikolay Klimenko in a conversation with said that the defeat Alexandra Chlemenko in a duel with Serbian Alexander Ilic will draw even more attention to the meeting of a Russian mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter with a compatriot Magomed Ismailov .
Shlemenko on August 26 at the RCC 12 tournament in Yekaterinburg lost to Ilic in the 20th second. The fight between Shlemenko and Ismailov is scheduled for December in Yekaterinburg.
“This result (of the fight with Ilic) drew even more attention,” Klimenko said in an interview with . – And after such a result, the fight between Alexander and Magomed Ismailov will be discussed even more. I’m sure we will organize this fight.
— Are there any doubts about the organization of the meeting between Shlemenko and Ismailov in December?
” I have no doubt. There are people who do not believe in their duel. Such messages are sent to me. Their fight was scheduled to take place on August 26. We, as organizers, have done everything for this. Alexander was ready, but Ismailov’s health problems prevented him.
The next stage is December. Whatever the result of the meeting with Ilic, the fight between Shlemenko and Ismailov is relevant.
Maybe in the upcoming fight many will consider Alexander an underdog and say Maga has a better chance. However, this is not the correct view. Ilic was also considered an underdog, and MMA is interesting for that. Shlemenko’s loss will likely draw even more attention to the December event, and even more people will watch their matchup.
For our part, we are ready to organize a rematch, but first we must complete the story with Magomed, and in the future we will return to the fight with Ilic.
Klimenko also said that in the coming weeks the exact date of the fight between Shlemenko and Ismailov will be announced and that it will take place in early December.
