Evgeny Tishchenko, Olympic boxing champion, commented on the level of boxing of MMA fighter Alexander Emelianenko.
"For MMA, Emelianenko has really good hands. And he also has a fight with an international master in boxing. But those are all matters long gone, as they say. Now I don't think he can compete with the best heavyweights of the world, even in Russia. We had a good relationship, he gave me a Forward jacket, and at that time I definitely needed it and was very pleased. And here he fitted..." the boxer said.
