Grigory Ponomarev knocked out Yusup Shuaev and defended the AMC Fight Nights title

The current AMC Fight Nights heavyweight champion, Grigory Ponomarev, successfully defended his title in the final match of the trilogy with Yusup Shuaev, defeating his compatriot at the AMC Fight Nights 119 tournament in Ulyanovsk.

It took the “Giant from Fedor’s Hall” two minutes to retransfer the opponent with an amplitude throw, take a dominant position from above, and deliver several powerful blows that put an end to this fight.

Recall that in March last year, Ponomarev lost to Shuaev by technical knockout in the second round after the controversial decision of the referee Gerikhan Shibilov to raise the fight to the stand, and seven months later he took a convincing revenge, finishing the opponent with a rear naked choke 57 seconds before the first signal for a break.
