Among its participants were the sons of the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov. Emelianenko published a post on Instagram, where he called it unacceptable to conduct fights according to the rules of MMA with the participation of children. In response, Kadyrov's supporters began to publish insulting posts about Emelianenko. Subsequently, the head of Chechnya demanded that these posts be removed.
