Mixed martial arts fighter Fedor Emelianenko talked about how he managed to knock out Andrei Arlovski in 2009 and named the condition for a second fight with the Belarusian.

"The knockout in the fight with Arlovski? It was a definite workout, I knew from Andrei's movements that I could hit him with that punch. No relation to his lunges now. I think it was clear, it was a knockout. As for a second fight - Andrei should then leave UFC and sign a contract with Bellator," Emelianenko said.

On October 23 at Bellator 269 tournament in Moscow, the 45-year-old Emelianenko will fight American Timothy Johnson.
