Finnish fighter breaks karateka, but Russian striker knocks him out! Cool old school fight!

A striker versus a wrestler! This is a true classic of the genre in mixed martial arts. In the good old days, when fighters were not as versatile as they are today, such a confrontation was seen at almost every tournament. Today we will once again dive into the era of the formation of professional mixed martial arts in our country and watch one very interesting fight.
In 2002, the European Mixed Martial Arts Championship was held in St. Petersburg under the auspices of the M-1 organization. The Russian team met with the world team. And one of the strongest Finnish fighters of that time, Juka Leino, entered the cage for the team of foreigners. He represented such a direction as tactical wrestling, one of the forefathers of modern grappling, was a master of painful and choking techniques and had won 7 victories in 10 fights at that time.
His opponent was the St. Petersburg fighter Alexey Veselovzorov. He specialized in combat sambo and karate and was one of the main masters of striking techniques in the Red Devil team. He had 5 wins and 2 losses to his credit before this fight.
