Famed mixed martial arts veteran Oleg Taktarov shared his expectations for his upcoming fight of Fedor Emelianenko and Timothy Johnson.

"I'm very anxious but wouldn't want to watch this fight. Timothy is a very strong fighter. I hope he won't be ready for this fight. They have a huge age difference, nine years. Johnson is 36 and Fedor is 45. I'm very worried about such things, the impressionable better not to watch, hardly Emelianenko is the favorite in this fight," Taktarov said.

Emelianenko and Johnson fight will take place today, October 23, at Bellator 269 tournament in Moscow.
