The Russian hammer steps up to heavy.

[MightyWarrior]

Another Bizarre fight at heavyweight this weekend, this time in Russia, as everyone’s favourite China chinned banger, the Russian Hammer Dimitry Kudryashov, moves up from cruiser and adds on an eye ( and everything else ) popping 50lbs to take on undefeated ex MMA star Vagab Vagabov. They both come out throwing bombs. Chris Kristofferson referees.

Kudryashov is finally back to knocking out cans. It's everything he could ever do. In the previous part of his career he stepped up in the opposition level and lost almost every meaningful fight. Now he KOed an MMA fighter, who tried boxing, and only guess whom he gonna face next. The local Russian freakshow promotion Pravda, which makes events featuring complete nobodies, is looking forward to make a fight of Kudryashov vs Viacheslav Datsik, who has been known for freakshow fights in MMA and KOing Andrei Arlovski in his MMA debut. Also, he's known for brigandage and mental issues.

He got into lifting weights and even took part in some strongman event.

Perfect opponents for him personally are exactly such cans, but for the fans it'll be nice to see him in a kill-or-be-killed fights against other vulnerable punchers. I'd watch Kudryashov against the likes of Andrey Fedosov, Lucas Browne or Iago Kiladze.

I did say Chris Kristofferson referees but autocorrect fucked up

Hey, it's Andrey Kurnyavka, the former Soviet and Kyrgyzstani amateur, the world middleweight champ in 1989, the 1996 Olympian.

Yeah, the guy could have been more popular, if he accepted an invitation of Holyfield to his training camp in the early 90s, or if he didn't face Savon in the first round of the '96 Olympics.
