On 1997-12-05 he didn't beat Viktor Baranov for the second time in his career. He beat another russian named Vietcheslav Barinov for the European title. But those are two different russians.
I have the fight on tape and the russian was also announced as Vietcheslav Barinov in the ring. And he doesn't look like Baranov at all
Please correct this.
Vietcheslav Barinovs record seems to be very incomplete. Perhaps Baranov and Barinov have been mixed up a few times.
Hopefully the editor that made the entry will make the correction. The editor that entered these bouts hasn't been on site lately. Correction has been made.
Yeah it was a tremendous knockout of Baranov. That uppercut was just :P perfect!
I think i have both the Barinov fight on video as well as the fight-programme including the record at that time of Barinov. Perhaps i can sort out wich fights have been mixed up with Baranovs record.
