Vladimir Mineev and Magomed Ismailov answered questions from guests at the RUSSIA EXPO
The press tour "PulseUp. Mineev — Ismailov", organized by the title
partner PulseUp Energy with the support of "Synergy", concluded with
a press conference at the RUSSIA EXPO. The event was dedicated to the
third bout between the athletes, scheduled for July 20 under boxing rules.
"I see that we are step by step approaching an
unprecedented event in Russian sports. We are talking about two irreconcilable
rivals who will meet for the third time. There has been nothing comparable to
this in Russian martial arts. If we compare it to football, it's like a match
between 'Zenit' and 'Spartak'. But 'Zenit' and 'Spartak' matches happen at
least twice a year, and we can afford to miss one. But Mineev and Ismailov
fight once every three years. Don't miss their bout on July 20!" noted
media manager and president of the promotion company "Fight Nights
Global" Kamil Gadzhiev.
Vladimir Mineev and Magomed Ismailov have had two MMA bouts
in 2018 and 2021, which ended in a draw and a victory for Mineev, respectively.
"In terms of a rematch, this fight is more necessary
for Magomed. But facing him always ignites my interest. I will be 100% ready; I
am still the same Mineev who wants to win. There is a belief that Magomed
already has experience in boxing. Therefore, in professional boxing, I am a
newcomer, no matter how surprising that may seem. I spend no less time in the
gym. Now there is less than a month left. I am constantly in the gym,
dedicating myself to this," noted Vladimir Mineev.
Magomed Ismailov emphasized that if he defeats Mineev in the
boxing match, he will be ready to face him again under MMA rules.
"I wanted to have the third fight under MMA rules, but
we couldn't reach an agreement. So, I had to say that I would outbox him. If I
win the bout on July 20, I will tell Vladimir that I will be waiting for him in
the cage," emphasized Magomed Ismailov.
The International RUSSIA EXPO showcases the most important
