Aleksander Emelianenko Wiki Wiki Page
Often overshadowed by his older brother, the legendary Fedor Emelianenko, Aleksander Emelianenko has nevertheless established himself as a top notch MMA heavyweight capable of beating the best in the world. A gold medalist at the 2006 Sambo World Championships, Emelianenko made his professional MMA debut in 2003, and soon found himself in top tier battles with the likes of Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic, Josh Barnett, and Fabricio Werdum during an auspicious run in Pride Fighting Championships. Since his last fight for Pride FC against Sergei Kharitonov in 2006, Emelianenko has transitioned to fighting in various regional Russian promotions, most notably M-1 Challenge, and still maintains an active fight schedule.
Emelianenko is instantly recognizable in the ring for the enormous symbolic tattoos criss-crossing his body, including the large Grim Reaper on his back from which his nickname derives. Some of the tattoos symbolize time he spent in Russian prison for robbery, while others represent his redemption in the eyes of God.

Whatever you're thinking about at this exact moment, Aleksander Emelianenko has already done -- and he did it with his bear hands. No, not bare hands. Bear hands that he obtained after a Grizzly lost an unfortunate bet. Aleksander Emelianenko speaks to mother nature, but only to tell her to shut up when he's trying to sleep at night. Any other outcome would involve another set of bear hands to ...

Back in 2011 for our simulated Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand-Prix on EA Sports MMA for MiddleEasy, Bob Sapp manged to cleanly knockout Jeff Monson in the first round and TKO Werdum in seconds in order to advance to the grand-prix finals against Fedor Emelianenko. Unfortunately for Sapp, he became another victim of overhand-right brilliance and was knocked out in the first round by The Last...
