Kadyrov forbade insulting Emelianenko

The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, called on his supporters to refrain from the emotional critic of the fighter Fedor Emelianenko. He wrote about this on his Instagram.

“I am addressing you with an urgent request and recommendation not to publish any notes affecting the honor and dignity of Fedor Emelianenko. I turn, first of all, to those who, under emotional influence, did this, saying that they are our supporters and friends. If you are actually such, but I have no doubt about it, do not write such things. And delete what is already written, ”Kadyrov wrote.

The head of Chechnya expressed confidence that even without such conflicts “we are surrounded by too unfriendly world”, including “sanctions and rattling weapons around the borders [Russia]”. He noted that Emelianenko probably “understands the haste in assessing the organization of the tournament.”

A children's combat tournament was held in Grozny on October 4, which was dedicated to the anniversary of Kadyrov. The participants were three of his children: 10-year-old Ahmad, 9-year-old Zelimkhan (Eli) and 8-year-old Adam. Everyone won victories, the elder sent his enemy to knockout.

Emelianenko on Instagram said that MMA rules suggest that children can only participate in battles after 12 years and only in the appropriate equipment. At the tournament in Grozny, as the video demonstrates, the children did not have an equipment. The post was later deleted, another photograph appeared instead with the same statement by the President of the MMA Union.

The Kremlin criticized the broadcast, and about the very fact of the fighting, he proposed to figure out the Commissioner for the Rights of Children in Chechnya Hamzat Hirahmatov. The Ombudsman did not find any violations.
