St. Petersburg builds strong heavyweight team 20 years after Red Devil era

St. Petersburg has assembled a notable heavyweight team for the first time since the legendary Red Devil camp approximately 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, young Greco-Roman wrestling master), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and regular training camp visitor Anton Vyazigin (17-6). Most of these fighters compete in ACA, which means they will face tough competition and inevitable losses given the high level of competition. However, those who can compile strong records in this environment will establish themselves as legitimate world-class fighters. Upcoming notable matchups include Kirill Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Daniil Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in St. Petersburg.
