Alexey Kunchenko, nicknamed “Wolverine,” has been one of the strongest welterweight fighters in our country since 2013. At the amateur level, he became the vice-champion of Russia in mixed martial arts and the champion of Russia in army hand-to-hand combat. As a professional, he won 20 fights in a row and won the M-1 Challenge champion belt, and also had a number of fights in the UFC.
At the early stage of his career, Alexey was distinguished by simply incredible striking power. It seemed that real dynamite was hidden in his fists, thanks to which he knocked out his opponents 13 times, and each of his fights was awaited by the audience with great interest.
In 2015, at the S70 tournament, the young knockout artist from Russia faced a difficult test in the person of Bellator and Strikeforce tournament veteran Ron Keslar. The American had vast experience in freestyle wrestling, in which he had achieved success at the national level since his school days, was skilled in grappling, reached the finals of the Bellator Grand Prix and came to Sochi in order to stop the victorious pace of the Russian striker and inflict his first defeat in a career.
