He was released on parole in 2016 and along with members of his team, declared that he would return to pro-MMA competition in 2017.

Police investigations revealed that he had threatened to kill Stepanova and her son if she reported his misdeeds to the authorities.

However, owing to their wealthy family background and the Emelianenko family’s political connections in Russia, the cowardly MMA veteran is still roaming the streets without any fear in the world.

Alexander Emelianenko is the antithesis of his brother, the great Fedor ‘The Last Emperor’ Emelianenko and deserves zero respect for his cowardly acts.
