Amosov told how he received the call sign "Bayraktar"

Bellator Welterweight Champion Yaroslav Amosov told about how he received the call sign "Bayraktar".

“I had the call sign Bayraktar, but this is not because I am some kind of super-warrior. It was just such a joke. The press came there, some American. We exchanged a few words with him: he said that he was from New York, he gave his name. Then he asked me my name. I got up, gave him my hand and said: "Bayraktar". All the boys laughed. It turned out to be a good joke - and that's it, it somehow stuck to me. Although before that there was "Groot" - this is a character from the film ... ", - said the Ukrainian fighter in an interview with the YouTube channel" DOUSHIVDUSHU ".

Recall that Amosov, as part of the TRO, defended his native Irpin from the invasion of Russian invaders. Because of this, he refused to fight Michael Page.
