Russian heavyweight Alexander Emelianenko claims his compatriot Sergei Kharitonov doped before their 2006 fight.
"I know he was doped before the fight. Right before the fight Pogodin gave him some drugs to make him breathe well, to keep him moving throughout the fight. How do I know? What difference does it make? It doesn't matter. I have my people everywhere. And in PRIDE they didn't check for doping, you could cheat. Look at Randelman," Emelianenko is quoted by "Sport-Express".
Recall, in that meeting Emelianenko won by technical knockout.
