Quick read
Saint Petersburg has assembled its strongest heavyweight MMA team in 20 years, rivaling the legendary Red Devil team. The current roster training in the city 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, young Greco-Roman wrestling master), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and Anton Vyazigin (17-6) who trains there regularly. Most compete in ACA, where losses are inevitable given the tough competition, but success there indicates world-class ability. Upcoming fights include Kirill Kornilov vs. Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs. Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in Saint Petersburg.
