St. Petersburg heavyweight team emerges as strongest since Red Devil era

A significant heavyweight team has assembled in St. Petersburg, potentially the strongest collection since the legendary Red Devil team from 20 years ago. The 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, young Greco-Roman wrestling master), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and regular training camp participant Anton Vyazigin (17-6). Most compete in ACA, where high-level competition inevitably leads to losses, but successful fighters in that organization demonstrate world-class ability. Upcoming notable matchups include Kirill Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in St. Petersburg.
