The striking power of Anatoly Tokov is known firsthand by many top Russian and foreign fighters. He won 17 of 31 victories by knockout and is rightfully considered one of the most formidable strikers in his weight.
Today we will again go to Japan for the Rizin New Year tournament in 2015, where Fedor Emelianenko and several of his teammates performed. Among them was Anatoly Tokov.
His opponent was the American fighter AJ Matthews, nicknamed the Mercenary. He approached the Russian with four Bellator victories and claimed he liked to press hard and break his opponents. The American promised that he would arrange a real battle with Tokov and after the victory he would fly high in the world rankings.
