“I am happy to organize a fight between Emelianenko and Dziuba” – promoter Khryunov

Promoter Vladimir Khryunov said that he would organize a duel between Russian fighter Alexander Emelianenko and football player Artem Dzyuba with great pleasure.

Earlier, Emelianenko said that he would agree to this fight, but added that Dziuba had no chance in such a meeting. President of AMC Fight Nights Kamil Gadzhiev, in a comment to Match TV, said that he did not believe in holding such a fight, but suggested that Artem could surprise Alexander in a fighting cage.

“I contacted Goldman the day before yesterday. He replied that Artem is now focused on football. I think he’s in an important moment right now. I wish him to appear in a new team soon and start to shine. Artem is a normal Russian guy who is loved and adored by millions of people. If this happened (the duel with Emelianenko – Ed.), then it would attract a lot of attention, which Artem and Alexander deserved. If such an opportunity arises, I will gladly organize it.

– If the fight takes place, will Dziuba survive at least one round against Emelianenko?

– We will choose a special type of martial arts. Artyom has stamina that will match the fight formula. It’s not a task for one to win over the other. Our task is for one and the other to bring people to the stadium, to watch the fight between two real handsome men and normal guys, thanks to whom you want to live. They both have the same background. These are Russian guys who deserve to be looked at. If this can be organized, then it will be possible to choose a stadium in any city in the country, and it will be full, ”Khryunov quotes “Sport Day after Day”.
