Siberian fighter Alexander Maslov, nicknamed the King of the North, continues his ascent to the top of mixed martial arts. Four years ago, the master of sports in boxing and hand-to-hand fighting began his performances in the professional arena of mixed martial arts.
Many well-deserved heavyweights fell from his powerful blows, including UFC fighter Cody East, Brazilian Wallison Carvalho and Egyptian Mahmoud Afia, who had never known defeats. At the beginning of 2021, Alexander won the Open FC champion belt and today we will watch the duel in which he was to defend this title.
