There have never been such defeats in the career of Red Tarzan.
Vyacheslav Datsik continues to fight in a frantic schedule. In December alone, Red Tarzan has three fights scheduled. True, the beginning of the series was not the best for the outrageous fighter.
Slava lost to the fast-running light heavyweight, having been knocked down along the way.
“I’ll bring the” collective farm “and finish the fight with a knockout”
Russian fighter Vyacheslav Datsik continues to make up for lost years with some unimaginable number of fights in 2022. At the same time, Red Tarzan does not limit himself to any particular type of martial arts, trying his hand at MMA and boxing. Vyacheslav had another fight in the octagon against the Chechen fighter Ilyas Yakubov.
By agreement, the fight was supposed to consist of three rounds of two minutes each. Also, the fighters were allowed to fight exclusively on their fists in the rack. Interestingly, Yakubov is much lighter than his opponent. At the weigh-in, he showed 93 kg. In addition, Ilyas is not a drummer: he won most of his victories by submission and never sent his opponent to a knockout.
– It’s hard to intimidate me. Nobody can break my spirit. No one is immune from victories and defeats. I know what I’m capable of, and I’ll go out into the cage to fight to the end, ”Yakubov said before the fight.
Datsik, on the other hand, came to the fight in chic uniform, he had not weighed 121 kilograms for a long time. At the same time, the press cubes were visible to the naked eye. In physical form, it was clear that the Red Tarzan was well prepared for the confrontation.
He is not a classic boxer. I am determined to win early. I hope that I will convey the “collective farm” and finish the fight with a knockout, Vyacheslav said in a promotional video.
The corporate growl didn’t help.
Immediately after the starting siren, Datsik traditionally took the center of the octagon. Ilyas, on the other hand, preferred to move around the perimeter and keep the opponent at a distance. The Shalinsky wolf understood perfectly well that hacking to death with a huge Datsik was like death. Yakubov was the first to shake his opponent in the middle of the round. Vyacheslav resisted and rushed to get revenge, but all his rage was shattered against the opponent’s reliable defense.
In the second round, something that no one expected happened: Datsik was on the floor after a missed blow in the middle of the round. Even the illustrious ability to take a hit did not help Slava to stand on his feet. The judge recorded a knockdown, but Datsik was able to get up and continue the fight.
In the third round, Yakubov had no chance to endure until the end, which he successfully did. Datsik in every possible way invited the opponent to cut himself in close combat, but Ilyas restrained himself, remaining two minutes at a distance. True, at the last minute, Yakubov naturally ran away from Datsik, turning his back on him. Heavy Ginger Tarzan races were more difficult, and it took precious seconds.
As a result, after the final siren, all three referees gave the victory to Yakubov, although Datsik showed with all his appearance that it was he who should raise his hand. Heard the verdict very disappointed Datsik. He did not wait for the interview and hastily left the octagon without even congratulating the opponent.
