The epic of the third part of the fight between Vladimir Mineev and Magomed Ismailov is getting closer every day.
The history of the confrontation between these athletes began in October 2018 at the AMC Fight Nights tournament. Ismailov and Mineev demonstrated a colorful and truly gladiatorial fight that ended in a draw. This result became the "seed" of the trilogy in Camila Gadzhiev's mind.
Three years later, in 2021, the long-awaited rematch took place. During these years, interest in the fight was skillfully and qualitatively heated. People genuinely craved "bread and circuses," and Gadzhiev delivered: bread for us, and a spectacle for you. The rematch was as spectacular as the first fight. Vladimir Mineev won by technical knockout. The fight lasted almost the entire distance, and MMA fans got the maximum emotions from this fight.
The fights between Mineev and Ismailov are a quality product that requires innovations in marketing. Two strong and talented athletes demonstrating truly gladiatorial battles deserve another confrontation.
Over time, the idea arose to organize their fight according to boxing rules. In my opinion, this is a very good idea. Both fighters are very good in striking style. Magomed has a base in combat sambo, while Vladimir has kickboxing. Their confrontation under boxing rules will be a major event.
Will Ismailov be able to take revenge on Mineev in boxing, or will Mineev put an end to their trilogy with gloves? Time will tell.
