48-year-old former "Pride FC" champion, Russian Fedor Emelianenko, spoke about the most important victory in his career.
According to Idman.biz, he considers the victory over Brazilian Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira on March 16, 2003 at the "PRIDE 25: Body Blow" competition to be the most important victory of his career.
"Victory over Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira in 2003. I knew he was a very strong opponent. Thank God, I won and became the number one fighter in the world. The fight with Mirko Filipovic was also difficult. But the hardest thing is not the fight itself, but the preparation: training is physically exhausting, and the last weeks are a mental struggle. It is also psychologically difficult. The main thing is not to lose hope, to always move forward," said Emelianenko.
