Russian MMA fighter Sergei Kharitonov commented on Alexander Emelianenko's victory over Ыzymon Bajor and also responded to his criticism. Earlier Emelianenko Jr., called Kharitonov "deadman".

- The fight Emelianenko, Jr. vs Bajor just finished. Is it possible to draw conclusions about the form of Alexander now?

- To be honest, I absolutely didn't know anything about his rival, so it's hard to judge the form of Alexander. Win is a win. Global conclusions can not be done exactly.

- And you happy with your form in the fight against Joey Beltran?

- Not really. But I did not expect another. This was the first fight after a six-year hiatus, after injuries. I went out to this fight, realizing that I was not 100 percent ready.

- Alexander Emelianenko recently called you a "deadman". What would you answer to him?

- I do not need to answer him, deadman means deadman. Everyone has a opinion, this is normal. I do not want to argue with him.

- Would you be interested in another fight with Emelianenko?

- Of course not! There is no desire or interest to meet him. Why should I fight some alcoholic?

- How can you now explain your defeat to him in 2006?

- It was a long time ago and not true!
