Russian mixed martial artist (MMA) Fedor Emelianenko will knock out American Timothy Johnson at Bellator 269 in the second round. Such a forecast was given by the athlete’s brother Alexander in the commentary to VseProSport.
“The first round will be reconnaissance, he will not even try to transfer to the ground. I know that Johnson is a drummer, so there will be little fight here, ”said Emelianenko Jr. He added that Fyodor will constantly work in a rack, put pressure on the American, hit serially and “swoop in like a tornado.”
On October 20, Johnson shared his expectations for the fight in Russia. The 36-year-old American said he was ready to perform in front of Russian fans. He added that a victory over 45-year-old Emelianenko will help him achieve the title fight at Bellator.
Emelianenko and Johnson will fight in the main Bellator 269 duel, which will be held on October 23 in Moscow. The American is known for his performances in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
