A significant heavyweight team has assembled in St. Petersburg, potentially the strongest since the legendary Red Devil team 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, Greco-Roman wrestling master of sport), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and regular training camp participant Anton Vyazigin (17-6). Most compete in ACA, which means losses are inevitable given the high level of competition. Two upcoming fights of interest are Kirill Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed as a professional in St. Petersburg.
