St. Petersburg heavyweight scene grows with strong roster at Red Devil

St. Petersburg has assembled a notable heavyweight team, reportedly the strongest lineup since the legendary Red Devil squad 20 years ago. The current roster includes Kirill Kornilov (18-3), Alexander Maslov (12-1), Anton Vinnikov (18-5), Daniil Matsola (7-0), Artem Dushenko (6-3 at 93 kg), Dmitry Baboryko (2-0), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and Anton Vyazigin (17-6), who regularly attends training camps. Most of these fighters compete in ACA, which means they will face tough competition and likely suffer some losses, but those who succeed will prove themselves as world-class fighters. Two upcoming fights of note are Kirill Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in St. Petersburg.
