Mixed martial arts (MMA) professionals should smile more often. Actor and showman Nikita Dzhigurda told Sport-Express about this.
So he reacted to the decision of the MMA Union of Russia to fight freak fights. “All nonsense is done with a serious face. What is the problem? This is a showdown. And we also attract the public, which does not know what an octagon is, ”said Dzhigurda.
Earlier on Monday, October 18, the head of the MMA Union of Russia, Radmir Gabdullin, criticized the existence of freak fights in mixed martial arts. He promised that the organization will involve the prosecutor’s office and the Federal Antimonopoly Service in the fight against such fights.
Dzhigurda on October 5 held a duel according to the rules of boxing with State Duma deputy Vitaly Milonov as part of the “Our Business” promotion event. In the main battle, the Russian heavyweight Alexander Emelianenko and blogger Artem Tarasov met.
