Russian veteran of mixed martial arts Sergei Kharitonov defeated Belgian Frederik Sinistra in a duel according to the rules of kickboxing at the tournament "Heat Fight Show" in Moscow. In the second round Sinistra was knocked down three times, and the referee decided to stop the fight. This was Kharitonov's first fight by the rules of kickboxing since 2014.
Just a week ago Kharitonov had a fight with compatriot Anton Vyazigin according to the rules of the MMA. The meeting was stopped because of an unintentional poke in the eye from Vyazigin's side. Initially, Kharitonov was declared the winner, but the next day the commission recognized the battle as no contest.
