“I didn’t expect anything else – the organizers said that it was for an exhibition, and I treat it as an exhibition,” Hajiyev said in an interview. Sport24. “If Ershov had hit one right straight, we would not have collected Sanya. Fortunately, Zhenya is an adequate person, and they just worked for the public. I would like Sanya to go to the gym for half a year and plow, but I don’t believe in it anymore ”
“It’s been a pity to look at Sanya for a long time, but this is his choice, he is an adult guy. Are people around him exploiting him? Yes, they exploit it, but first of all, the driver of all this is himself. I would not fight such an Emelianenko, but in no case do I blame those who do, because this is such a genre, an exhibition – if you don’t want it, don’t watch it. There is an offer to the market, the market reacts. So I wouldn’t do it, but Vladimir Khryunov does, and I’m sure that Sanya collects his ratings”
The fight, which led the event, ended at the 20th second of the second round after Ershov moved the opponent, gave his hand to the painful hold, and signaled the surrender.
At the same time, in the first round, the referee allowed Emelianenko, who was crouched near the net, to recover from the missed blow and continue the fight, instead of fixing the blogger’s victory by technical knockout.
