Quick read
A notable heavyweight team has assembled in St. Petersburg, potentially the strongest 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), Denis Goltsov (36-9), and regular training camp participant Anton Vyazigin (17-6). Most compete in ACA where the high level of competition means losses are inevitable, but success there indicates world-class ability. Upcoming bouts include Kornilov vs Tony Johnson and Matsola vs Khadis Ibragimov, with Ibragimov also having developed professionally in St. Petersburg.
