Two-time world champion in hand-to-hand combat, maroon beret of the special forces of the Internal Troops Igor Yegorov gained popularity in the world of mixed martial arts with uncompromising spectacular fights. Standing apart among them is the crazy-heated duel with the phenomenal Zabit Magomedsharipov, the video of which you can watch on our channel.
Today we will see another fight of this bright Russian fighter, which took place at the dawn of his career in 2012 at the PRO FC 44 tournament. Igor then had a record of 5 wins with one single defeat. And he was waiting for a fight with a very difficult and interesting opponent.
They became the undefeated Belgian fighter Gaetano Pirello, nicknamed the Tiger. He approached the fight with Igor with 7 early victories in a row with one single draw. Gaetano was a real aggressor in the octagon, he won all his fights ahead of schedule, knocking out five opponents and forcing two more to surrender from painful and chokeholds. A few months before the fight with Yegorov, Pirello made a spectacular debut in Russia, defeating Alexei Makhno and was ready to extend his flawless winning streak against the Russian commando.
