The 19-year-old Phenomenon knocked out the daring “Bad Guy”! Showdown between two cool strikers!
What will happen if two ambitious, talented strikers meet in a rage, each having 7 knocked out opponents under their belts? That’s right, one of them will become eighth for his opponent with a high degree of probability.
On May 24, 2018, as part of the M-1 Challenge 92 tournament, Helson Henriques, who was considered one of the best lightweight fighters in Portugal, entered the ranks. His titles include the Cage Fighters and World Strikers League titles. And out of 9 victories, he won 7 by knockout. A bright, charismatic fighter with a striking fighting style. But his opponent was even more interesting.
7 fights, 7 victories, all 7 by knockout in the first round. In theory, this is enough to understand the level of the 19-year-old athlete from Kaliningrad, Alexei Ilyenko, nicknamed Phenomenal. However, let’s add to this four more Russian champion titles and two world champion titles in hand-to-hand combat among juniors. Let’s also add that in his fighting style, Alexey always copied the brightest representatives of the striking style in the world of MMA and did it very successfully, delighting the audience with knockouts from jumping knee strikes and non-standard techniques.
That evening, two very ambitious and very interesting fighters were in the rage to put on a spectacular fight for the audience.
