Russian mixed martial artist Alexander Emelianenko believes his illustrious older brother Fedor is the best heavyweight in MMA history.

"The best heavyweight for me? It's acknowledged, and no one has ever been better. Of course, it's my older brother Fedor. He's gone a very long time without defeat, beaten a lot of good, big-name fighters. He's the best fighter. And he left PRIDE as champion when the promotion was shut down. I don't see any better yet," Emelianenko said on the Hustle MMA podcast.

Recall that the Emelianenko brothers have not been in a relationship for over 10 years. The other day, Alexander unexpectedly announced his readiness to fight Fedor.
