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