Kirill Sidelnikov at the dawn of his career, many called Fedor Emelianenko's successor. And such advances were clearly not given out of nowhere. Kirill is now a 6-time world champion and 7-time European champion in combat sambo. And many years ago, already at the age of 19, he made his debut in the professional arena of mixed martial arts, and in 19 seconds he knocked out his opponent with a high kick.
At the age of 20, Kirill was included in the Russian team based on the Red Devil club, which participated in the first M-1 Challenge world team championship in mixed martial arts in 2007. In the very first fight against the Polish legionnaire of the French team, Sidelnikov created one of the most memorable knockouts in the history of mixed martial arts, which still collects millions of views all over the Internet.
Well, then his team was waiting for a meeting with the US team and the young Russian athlete was opposed by the American heavyweight James Jack, who was clearly larger and more powerful than our fighter, and had a powerful wrestling base behind him.
