Ismailov expressed his respect to his opponent and noted that they had left the past in the past. “He showed himself well today. But in MMA I will still run him over,” the athlete concluded.
The fight between the fighters took place on the night of July 21. Mineev won by unanimous decision. This was the third meeting between the athletes: the first fight in 2018 ended in a draw, and in 2021 Mineev knocked out his opponent.
