Former Pride and Rings heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko revealed how his brother messages him after every new interview.

- Do you remember the last time Alexander congratulated you on your birthday?

- I guess it's not that important.

- And you him?

- Before prison, I guess. I'll explain: my attitude towards Alexander hasn't changed. Both before prison, and when he was in prison, and when I got him out of prison. I visited him in prison, his mother went to him, his friends supported him - the same Denis. My mother would give Denis money to go and buy pants, because the old ones were worn out, and he would spend the money to fill up the car with canned goods and take a parcel to Sasha. Maybe someday Alexander's conscience will wake up. I compare it to the parable of the prodigal son. The man is gone, lost, forgotten. I really hope that his conscience will one day awaken and he will say thank you. He won't write rubbish on my personal phone after my interviews and he will apologize to the people he owes, who helped him and whom he is now insulting.

- Have you been texting recently?

- They come to me regularly - usually after some kind of interview. I think something will come after that too.

- So he has your phone number?

- I don't think it's hard for him to get it. I know where he gets it.

Fedor Emelianenko will fight Timothy Johnson on October 23 at Bellator 269 in Moscow.
