UFC Heavyweight Alexey Oleinik Mocks Fedor Emelianenko’s Latest Opponent, Says UFC Offered Him a Great Deal

– UFC Heavyweight Alexey Oleinik recently spoke about Fedor Emelianenko’s next fight and more. Here are the highlights…

On Fedor Fighting Fabio Maldonado: “This is the first time I heard the name Maldonado,” Oleinik told Sports-Express. “His is a name nobody knows. I then suggested that he has three defeats in his last four fights. He was fired from the UFC for being unfit. Of course, Fedor is a great option for him.”

On a Better Opponent: “Let Vitaly Minakov take the fight. Very strong, young man. Worthy opponent at a good level. Minakov is a Bellator champion, is healthy and technical. Fights better than Fedor. That would be cool and interesting. That same Minakov is better than Maldonado.”

On UFC Reportedly Offering His a Good Deal: “Emelianenko said he was ready for any opponent, including UFC champion Werdum. He said he was open to all suggestions, but he was not satisfied with the terms. I talked with the leaders of the UFC, and was told that Fedor was offered excellent conditions. Any fee that Rizin FF offered, UFC was ready to increase by a hundred thousand dollars.”
