Shlemenko commented on A. Emelianenko's desire to fight his brother

Former Bellator middleweight champion Alexander Shlemenko reacted to the words of Alexander Emelianenkowho previously stated his readiness to fight his older brother Fedor.

"Just because it's not pretty behavior... Again, who has what truth here. We don't know everything about their relationship, right? That's why I think it's so public... It's their personal business. It has to be dealt with personally. Why take it public? [Why] sit there and say, "I'd beat him up"? Especially if it's my own blood... What for? I don't understand. Maybe some people are ok with it, but I can't understand it. Thank God, I'm still so brought up that I don't understand it, and I don't share it," Shlemenko said.

Shlemenko's next fight will be against Artur Guseinov on October 17 in Sochi.
