As a long time Aleks Emelianenko fan, I've made excuses for him through the Hep B, drunken escapades and self-delusion about his career prospects and stature in MMA, but this disgraceful interview officially ends any respect for him I have left.
Here are some of the highlights
*The media portrays him as the bad brother and Fedor as the good brother, but if only they really knew.
*He questions Fedor's religious conviction because he doesn't go to monastery as much as Alex
*He can overpower Fedor with just his arms.
*Fedor was given "a couple of invalids" to fight so he could end his career with a win, nevermind that one of those invalids, Jeff Monson, submitted Alex AFTER the Fedor fight
*Monson is a nobody and has no skills, just muscles.
*Fedor's fame and success is because he got lucky here and there
*He bears no responsibility for any of the multiple criminal complaints brought against him, it is all rubbish.
*He makes several anti-Semitic remarks about Vadim Finklestein and his Jewish origin
This guy is a punk who shows no respect for anyone or anything. He clearly is being crushed by the weight of Fedor's shadow and resents his brother. I believe everything Kharitonov said about Aleks at this point.
