Hockey Academy Avangard, Omsk, Russia. As part of the boxing evening from Vladimir Khryunov and Fight Club Ren TV debuted as a professional two-time Olympic champion
Alexey Tishchenko (1-0, 0 KOs). In the super lightweight limit (up to 63.5 kg), the 38-year-old Russian fought with 42-year-old Neomar Sermeno (27-9-1, 16 KOs) from Venezuela, the former interim WBA champion.

Tishchenko UD 4.
