Funny you posted this. I was watching Aleks vs Sergei Kharitonov last night and wondered what happened to Aleks.
He has had several fights this year, some important postings, and been seen out and about. His life and career seems to be going very well at the moment.
The ultimate "**** you" Dana White could throw at Fedor would be attempting to sign Aleks... I for one would love to see his brutality in the UFC.
Ingushetia is an extremely very dangerous place. Ingushetia, Chechnya, Dagestan the entire local area is very hostile Let me put it this way the president who invited Alex was nearly killed by a suicide bomber it killed three of his bodyguards.
Dangerous place yes but it is what it is. Whats you point again? I thought we were talking about MMA?
Dana would have more chance getting a wank from the Pope than Aleks signing with the UFC. The last time he tried to fight on US soil he failed his medical. Pretty certain he still has Hepatitis.
Yes and no. But Aleks has always been somewhat inconsistent. Very talented for such a big man though. But his boxing isn't half as good as he thinks it is.
when did he fail? its more likely that he cant get a visa into America because of his background (prison)
