A fighter who embodied an uncompromising striking style. One of the most aggressive and spectacular fighters in the history of mixed martial arts and K-1 tournaments. He always sought to destroy his opponent and was ready to take on absolutely anyone. He won 29 of his 32 victories by knockout, became a Cage Rage and Showtime champion, fought true legends, and ultimately became one himself. He still competes to this day. Today, we'll talk about the famous Dutch fighter Melvin Manhoef, nicknamed "The Merciless." Even at 45, he's ready to give any opponent a run for his money and will soon have another fight in the Bellator cage. And now, we'll travel back in time 19 years to watch the Dutchman's fight, which took place in St. Petersburg at the "Russia vs. the World 5" tournament under the auspices of the M-1 promotion. Melvin's opponent was Alexander Garkushenko, who had a strong background in judo and sambo. Three years after this encounter, Alexander would go on to win the title of vice-champion and then world champion in combat sambo, after which he would change careers and become an actor, appearing in over 20 Russian films and television series. #Knockout #Merciless #M1
