Mendez: I spent $300,000 to save AKA during the pandemic

American coach Javier Mendes said that he had to seriously fork out to save his AKA gym during a pandemic.

“I spent $300,000 out of my own pocket to save the hall. We pay very expensive rent, we have a large room. The main part of this amount was eaten by rent, and the rest was electricity, such things. It was a very difficult stage, we almost lost the hall. Many people have lost their business, so we are still lucky, ”quotes Mendez as saying.SE".

On the night of February 27, Mendez will second Russian lightweight Islam Makhachev, who will fight American Bobby Green at UFC Fight Night 202 in Las Vegas.
