“Tokov is handsome. He correctly promotes himself in the media space” – coach Ismailov

Coach Ramazan Ismailov appreciated the idea of ​​MMA fighter Anatoly Tokov, who wanted Fedor Emelianenko, Ivan Shtyrkov and Magomed Ismailov to be in his corner during the fight with Alexander Shlemenko.

Shlemenko and Tokov will fight on December 14 in Yekaterinburg, their confrontation will become the main event of the RCC tournament. The fighters previously met at the Bellator 208 tournament in New York in October 2018. Tokov won the first fight by unanimous decision.

– Handsome. Promotes himself correctly in the media space. They will already be talking not only about the fight, but also about who will be in his corner, what and how: “What did Magomed tell you?” This will be more memorable. A bomb move on his part. I don’t know if they told him or if it was his idea. Magomed and Alexander have a good relationship. I don’t know what it will look like. Shlemenko can look at this in his own way. As a hype, Ismailov, Fedor and Shtyrkov in Tokov’s corner is an interesting idea. This will put psychological pressure on Alexander. On the contrary, it can motivate. The idea itself is good,” Metaratings.ru quotes Ismailov as saying.

Live broadcasts of mixed martial arts tournaments can be seen on the Match TV and Match! Fighter”, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
