Good private video of Aleksander Emelianenko meeting with his fans at the Affliction “Banned” show. Just to bad we didn’t get to see him fight. |
The original poster of the video also attached this comment with the post. Take it for what its worth.
“Rumours about Hepatitis B are LIES, Aleks is not sick. He will fight at Affliction II in October.
This is what happened : “I (Vadim Finkelstein) do not clearly understand what has happened because we found out that Alexander had been debarred right before weighting procedure. I suppose that California commission has debarred Alexander because he was not in time to the date of medical examination — 13th of July, but it had happened because we had problems with visa in American embassy. For example Alexander’s seconds didn’t get visas without any explanations and that is why Alexander came only at July,15. Maybe they haven’t done some tests and it became a reason why commission didn’t allowed Alexander to fight.”
Fedor will be fighting Andrei Arlovski in October at Affliction II.
July 31, 2008 INTERVIEW to Vadim Finkelstein(M-1 President): “If UFC negotiate with us, the fight between Fedor and Randy can take place this year”.
So when will he (Aleksander) continue fighting?
-We do have some variants right now. Maybe he will take place in superfight at the next M-1 Challenge tournament in Korea or at one of the nearest Dream tournaments.”
