Quick read
St. Petersburg is developing what may be its strongest heavyweight MMA team in 20 years, since the legendary Red Devil gym era. The current roster includes Kirill Kornilov (18-3), Alexander Maslov (12-1), Anton Vinnikov (18-5), Daniil Matsola (7-0), Artem Dushenko (6-3), Dmitry Baboryko (2-0), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and Anton Vyazigin (17-6) who regularly attends training camps there. Most of these fighters compete in ACA, which presents tough competition and inevitable losses, but successful records in that organization indicate world-class skill level. Two upcoming interesting matchups are Kirill Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in St. Petersburg.
