Tamerlan Akhmadov made waves with an impressive performance in his fight in Örebro, going viral afterward with over a million views across FCR’s social media platforms. Now, he’s set to face one of Sweden’s top up-and-coming prospects, Leo Kadiric—a fight you won’t want to miss.
You are by far one of the most active amateur fighters in the Nordic scene right now, how many fight are we going to see you in this year?
I love to fight and already have 4 mma and 2 Muay Thai fights this year. Would be great to have 5-6 more MMA fights in 2026 and if all goes good maybe look at some bigger challenges
How does it feel to fight at FCR again?
Honestly, I can’t put into words how happy I am to fight again in such a top organization. To justify this opportunity I’ve been given, I step into the cage to kill or be killed.
Last time at FCR 27 you delivered in a great fashion, and got viral with over 1 million views with your post fight interview, what’s you thought on that?
I was insanely motivated. It doesn’t matter to me who stands in front of me, I know what I’m capable of and carry the Chechen spirit from my ancestors. For me, fighting is as natural as going to eat, so that’s why the fight was so intense, and we also worked on our mistakes. I saw it and honestly, I wasn’t surprised. I behave the way I really am, I don’t try to be someone else. I’ve been crazy since childhood, and anyone who knows me can confirm that. I never have brakes, always full speed. Many people supported me after the fight and grew to like me even more.
What do you know about your opponent Leo Kadiric?
About my opponent, I know he’s a very good boxer, but we’re not easy either. I’ll tell you, I have a strong jaw and can take hits.
What is your message to your opponent Leo Kadiric?
To my opponent, I’ll say: be ready for anything. I step into the cage with one thought to win. Let’s see who has the better hands.
