The first fight of Fedor Emelianenko in Russia as a Pride FC champion, the presence of the President of Russia, the arrival of Silvio Berlusconi, Jean-Claude Vandamme and Peter Aerts as guests of honor. Truly, April 14, 2007 was a significant date in the history of domestic mixed martial arts.
The Bodog Fights tournament with the support of M-1 at the Ice Palace in St. Petersburg was a grandiose event in which the leading athletes of our country participated. In particular, Alexander Emelyaenko, who was already a real world star, had his second fight in Russia.
His opponent is the fearsome-looking American heavyweight Eric Pele, nicknamed "The Big One". He had a lot of knocked-out opponents behind him and just a few months before the events described, he inflicted the first defeat in his career on Antonio Bigfoot Silva, knocking out the giant with a powerful blow. After that fight, Pele was absolutely not afraid of the formidable Russian and was confident in his victory.
