"Kharitonov's manager called, offered to fight. We've agreed on two fights but we have to put him into hibernation. Although, judging by the serious schedule I have, the hibernation will be a spring one. The first fight with Kharitonov will be by boxing rules, the second - by MMA rules," said Emelianenko during a live broadcast on Instagram.
Back in 2006, Emelianenko defeated Kharitonov by technical knockout within the framework of legendary Japanese PRIDE promotion.
