UFC champion considers the situation in Russia abnormal

Andrew Karlov | Published Feb. 5, 2021, 1:29 p.m.

UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan spoke out about life in Russia.

"Situation in Russia? I think it's getting to the point where it gets crazy. It has long been abnormal... Life is definitely not getting better. It went to some level... You're either rich or poor. A smart country is not needed, because smart people know what to say, they are difficult to govern. And we have to be smart. We have every right to speak out and demand certain conditions,” Yan said.

On March 6 Yan will have to fight Aljamain Sterling. Now Petr is in the USA and trains at the ATT gym.
