Taktarov: “It would be cool if Emelianenko took revenge on Bader in a farewell fight”

Russian veteran of mixed martial arts Oleg Taktarov spoke about the future of the legendary compatriot Fedor Emelianenko.

“Fyodor, of course, surprised. Well, I was surprised - it's just that his life goes on as if in periods. There was a period of decline after 10 years of victories, and now, apparently, he began to prepare differently, changed his training. And what Fedor did struck me personally. Because the opponent is not easy. The opponent knocked out the strongest and was younger by many years. Whether Fedor should leave or not - only he can say, he knows his strength better. He has a great relationship with Bellator management and is given the opportunity to choose who to fight. He clearly knows who can harm him, and who, most likely, will not. But it would be great, of course, to leave for revenge. If he defeated the one to whom he lost by knockout, and who is now the champion, then it would be cool, ”said Taktarov.

Recall that earlier Bellator President Scott Cocker announced that Emelianenko's farewell fight would take place in the summer in Russia.
