A notable heavyweight team has assembled in Saint Petersburg, potentially the strongest lineup since the legendary Red Devil gym 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 93kg), Dmitry Baboryko (2-0, a young Greco-Roman wrestling master), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and Anton Vyazigin (17-6) who regularly attends training camps. Most of these fighters compete in ACA, where the high level of competition makes it difficult to maintain winning records, but those who succeed can be considered world-class fighters. Two upcoming interesting matchups feature Kirill Kornilov vs. Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs. Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed as a professional fighter in Saint Petersburg.
