Former Bellator Middleweight Champion Alexander Shlemenko does not exclude that in the future he may have a duel against Alexandr Emelianenko.

Earlier, Emelianenko announced that he's ready to fight Shlemenko.

“At the moment it is difficult for me to say whether I will go to fight against Alexander Emelianenko or not. So far, all the time is spent on organizing my promotion tournament. In the same program, Kamil Hajiyev said correctly, I have a champion fight planned for March in the organization of Khabib. This is paramount for me, and then we'll see. I have more interesting fights, but, again, we'll see. Anything can be. I think that now he does not need to run further than his fight. I would like to wish Alexander victory in the battle with Santos. I hope for his victory,” said Shlemenko.

Emelianenko, 40, will fight Marcio Santos on November 27 at the Fight Nights tournament in Syktyvkar, Russia.
