During training camp in Holland, and then in Stary Oskol it carried out on two trainings in day and as the trainer Fedora Alexander Michkov told, preparation for fight took place fruitfully. Our expert also marked out the rival - 28-year-old Dzhaydip Singh. Though is and protivopolozh ny opinions that for Emelyanenko who has signed the contract with the Japanese organization Rizin Fighting Federation, picked up simply "bag" for a beating.
So, Dzhaydip Singh was born in India, but since three years lives in Japan. Singh turned into the mixed single combats from a kickboxing where won 40 victories in 51 fights, including in 2010 over Russian Sergey Kharitonov. However three last fights in K-1 ended for Dzhaydip with defeats. But in MMA he already managed to win two early victories and to win a title of the champion of the Japanese organization Deep in absolute weight category.
Singh - the healthy guy of 198 cm in height and weighing 109 kg which well beats knees. However, Sergey Kharitonov who experienced on itself all force of blow of Dzhaydip, considers that skills of the kickboxer will not help the athlete with the mixed single combats. So it puts on Emelyanenko. And here the trainer of Singh Rudimar Fedrigo who is the founder of the MMA known school, is sure that his pupil will be able to knock out Fedor.
Singh too will try to show to p all the skills in fight with one of the best fighters in the history.
- I would lie if told that I am not afraid. For me a great honor to have opportunity to check the forces and to come to a ring against such legend as Fedor Emelyanenko, - Dzhaydip declared. - But I trained in the USA and sparred with the former champions of UFC, for example, with Kane Velasquez. It seems to me, it is much more dangerous than Emelyanenko. After all he did not fight three years, and it will affect him. I need to use opportunity which is given. Now I am in the best physical form. I know that is ready to meet any rival face to face and to win a victory if near me in a corner of the ring there are Peter Arts and Rudimar Fedrigo.
