Four hundred dollars. We did so that some people began to fight us, others wanted to fight and everyone spoke about us. It cost us in four hundred dollars, - in the voice of Greg Atinyana, pride sounds.

Apinyan is a 29-year-old resident of St. Petersburg and organizer of the "Arrow" mixed martial arts championships. Everyone in St. Petersburg know what "Arrow" is. There is an arrow of Vasilyevsky Island. You can still "score the arrow", that is, call the opponent to a serious conversation. And now here is the championship.

The name is excellent, - ascertains Apinyan. - His my brother came up with.

For two years of existence, his fighting tournaments have passed the way from a transf commander worth 400 dollars to one of the leading players in the domestic market of mixed martial arts (MMA - from the English Mixed Martial Arts). Eight million views of the clips "arrows" on YouTube, win in the World Press Photo Competition in the nomination "Best Sports Story", which in 2011 went to the organizers of the championship for shooting their tournaments, fights on the football lawn of Petrovsky Stadium, the home field "Zenith" , Saint for Petter residents, is just some achievements of Apinyan and the company.

The secret of the success of the "arrows" is that ordinary lovers can take part in it, including those who have never engaged in battles at all. And the second: "Arrow" - Street Championship. Its participants will fight in the open sky, on the sand, grass or on bare earth.

This is what distinguishes us from traditional MMA tournaments, "says Apinyan. - Their format of many viewers scares: octagon, people in a cage, blood, everything is scary and gloomy. And another thing is our championships. Sand, blue sky, sun. And the most ordinary people who sometimes show such a strength of the Spirit, which remains only to be surprised.

On the first "Arrow", held in the summer of 2011, a 40-year-old past man came to the fight. Compared to the rest, he seemed grandfather. The man was called Alexander Take, he was an accountant. In the next ten minutes, "Grandfather" gave a real battle to the opponent twice as younger and eventually won. According to the rules, the battles on the "Arrow" do not have a limit in time: they go until one of the fighters give up or until the fight stops the judge. Record battle in the history of the championship lasted 40 minutes without a break. Everything else is like in a classic MMA. On the hands of fighters of the lining, they are allowed to strike hands and legs and fight in the parter.

I worked with M-1, filmed Fedi Emelianenko's fights. Then he drove into Russia equipment and T-shirts of fighting firms, had a store. At first we thought: arrange your tournament to sell better T-shirts. But very quickly fighting the store in the background, "says Apinyan.

Information about the first "arrow" was distributed by sections of mixed martial arts. The name was to participate all. The place was chosen by the St. Petersburg Factory "Red Banner" - once she supplied the country with female stockings, and now it is not going through the best times. With the management of the factory, they concluded an agreement on the rental of land in the yard for a period of one day. Familiar brought twelve sand bags, poured on the ground and scattered. On the perimeter they pulled the ship ropes - the ring turned out. As a viewers, they called participants of city auto and motoclubs - for free, money for the arrows tickets began to take later. Those arrived and made a beautiful background: expensive cars, roaring motors, girls in short shorts. The case was for small - to remove everything to the camera and lay out on the Internet. All this, according to Apinyan, and cost those notorious 400 dollars. And almost half of this amount was promised as a remuneration to fighters.

Five people volunteered. And then I said: six thousand rubles left money, you can divide three thousand and spend two fights. When these fights ended, the people really started. According to the audience they let the hat and collected six more thousands. Immediately there were new wishes to try themselves in battles.

For two years under the auspices of the "arrows", there were eleven tournaments for mixed martial arts. Naughty Petersburgers noticed and took the American company Trone under the wing, specializing in the organization of tournaments on MMA. The amount for which the Americans bought the right to manage the Fight tournament in Russia, Apinyan does not reveal. But, judging by his voting and Napoleonic plans, the deal was what. It continues to organize battles, but already as an employee employee.

Today, the "Arrow" offers a franchise to the regions. A person in any city of Russia can take advantage of its name, its marketing resources, including a fidelled Internet site, and spend the championship. Two years of use of the brand "arrows" will cost him three million rubles. There were no wishing yet. But the price of the franchise is planted even higher. Because, according to Apinyan, the "Arrow" will continue to develop, will be known:

There will be no more tournaments in St. Petersburg. We feel confident enough to go to the storm in Moscow. And then, if everything becomes successful, after two or three years we will come to intercontinental development.

In the queue for participation in the battles of "arrows" today are 838 people. This is enough for seven-eight tournaments. Fighters in the championship still do not earn big money, the victory fees rarely exceed three or four thousand rubles. However, this is not at all embarrassing men who want to try their strength in battles without rules. They come from different spheres, with different battle qualifications. Once even ZEK called from prison. Said: "I will come out in four months, I want to fight."

Ali Baba and Robbers

Weekly in Russia take place at least a dozen mixed martial arts championships in which lovers can participate. Information about them is distributed on social networks and on forums of Internet sites dedicated to martial arts, such as Koicombat.org or Mixfight.ru. The geography of these tournaments is extremely wide. It can be the near Moscow manor of Serednikovo, the former estring of Lermontov-Stolypin, where in 2011 they conducted competitions on the most rigid version of the fighting T-1. Or city sports complexes, as it was in Makhachkala, Barnaul, Birobijan, Voronezh, Krasnodar and almost any other city of Russia with a population of fifty thousand people.

Often the fighters lead to restaurants and nightclubs, and then visitors enjoy the fights in the Snob's manner of the "Great Gatsby" - sitting at the tables with drinks and food. So it was, for example, in Kolomna near Moscow.

All together, this means that the impressive number of men, for whom battles are not a profession, finish their working works on Friday, say goodbye to colleagues until Monday and go fists to earn extra money. Or, if the money does not suggest, to prove all the things that men usually prove to themselves.

Alexander Anisimov - a 30-year-old employee of a road construction enterprise in Vladimir. For the debut in mixed martial arts, he chose the version of their version, which one reputable sports edition called the "density" - T-1. The letter "T" means "total".

According to the rules of T-1, the rivals perform in shoes with a rigid sole. It is allowed to strike your head, to finish the opponent with your legs, if it does not give up. The organizers wanted participants to fight with bare hands, without gloves, but the fighters themselves have already been opposed. "Not everyone was ready to overcome the psychological barrier, fighting a naked fist," says Herman Lviv, President of the League T-1 and the popularizer of absolute fights. So in the end, the fighters were allowed to fight in lining for the mixfit.

One of the participants in the weight category of Alexander Anisimov dropped out of the tournament, having received the head of his head on her nose first (the nose broke), and then, already lying on the floor, leg in the head. Alexander turned out to be more successful. He reached the final and only there, having fallen into pain, lost.

At different times, I was engaged in a hand-to-hand fight, and the struggle, "he says. - And then carried away by weightlifting.

To the question that made him leave a wife in Vladimir and a one and a half year old son and go to a foreign person to fight, he says: "It became interesting." However, immediately adds: "The interest was satisfied." And at least in the near future, fights in his life will no longer.

Interest is something that attracts many to the amateur mixfight. However, participation in the fights can become both in earnings. According to the Federation of Pankration of Russia (this organization seeks to give mixed martial arts Olympic status), the fee for the first place in non-professional tournaments fluctuates around the country in the range from 30 to 50 thousand rubles. Participants themselves call more modest amounts - 10-20 thousand.

The prize fund is going from sponsorship or contributions to the participants themselves. Athletes who fight regularly ride two or three tournaments per month. If you defeat at least one of them, and in another to take second place (for which half of the amount is often given), with a deduction of expenses on the road will be "salary" about a thousand dollars. For the province, this is a lot. And if you conquer more often, then you can earn more. But there are no such obvious stars in the amateur MMA: the rotation of the winners is constantly.

A person who broke his nose on T-1, name Ali Baba. His real name Vyacheslav Yurovsky, he is 40 years old. Having a certain place of residence and sometimes spending the night at the Moscow railway stations, Ali-Baba pooes from one micxfight tournament to another. Information about them is looking for on the Internet: it takes a laptop with him, leads a page on the site mmablog.ru and often sits on social networks.

Ali-Baba is dryly, wears a beard, a broken nose gives a person in him who was firmly in life. A couple of months ago they wrote about him in one sports magazine. Journalists, he won the reputation of a person difficult: refused to interview many, including, according to his own words, "many television drivers" and "some cinema".

For some time we rewrite "Vkontakte". Ali-Baba writes from N-Cka, his hometown, where he drove to visit the parents. The present name N-SKA is hiding and calls it "assrested": "This is a black hole. Complete grounds day. "

In the 90s, he studied at the journalism of Moscow State University. There began to engage in sambo in the university section. And when life threw him out, Provincial, on the side of the road - without constant work, without money - it was the struggle that became its main occupation. In the Ali Baba mixfit look like a bearded spider. He rolled up to his opponent, knits, seeks to take on a throw. "Fights are not a fountain," he himself responds about his fights.

"VKontakte" is one of the few ways to communicate with Ali Baba. "I poured back the phone back in the past November. Skype is also not, "he writes. He says that he does not interview, because he wants to remain. He has no sponsors. And in Moscow, he is still homeless: "For complete happiness, there is not enough of its angle, at least the rooms." Could write about yourself a book, there were suggestions, but not yet. In the near future plans - tournaments in Rostov-on-Don and Belgorod: "This year I fought almost every weekend."

Very soon the character of Ali-Baba makes itself felt. Upon learning that it would be not the only hero of the article, he turns the correspondence. Heroes will be "enough and without me," says his last message.

25-year-old native of the Leningrad Region Vyacheslav Kashuba is the complete opposite of Ali Baba. He willingly respond to questions, and he does not confuse that they are going to write not only about him.

"Mom said to me: the intellectuals should not fight!" "Three years ago, Kashuba, an engineer with a specialty" Navigation ", walked. Swim in America, Canada, Europe. Then he learned that he was very close, in St. Petersburg, they spend strange fights on the sand - "Arrow", and sent an application for participation. "On the first letter I was not answered. On the second they called back, and so began my adventure. "

Today he is known in the world of amateur mixfit under the name of the seaflock. Although the sea has long been finished: Vyacheslav flashes the bolder sodes on his head, trains every day and dreams to make a professional career in mixed fights. Behind his shoulders are four battles on the "Arrow" (three victories, one defeat) and the experience of speaking in other tournaments. So far, he says, the mixfit does not bring income. But he has before the eyes of the fame of UFC tournaments, the main promotion-company in MMA.

In the UFC rows, all today's misfit stars: Black Giants John Jones and Anderson Silva, curly fighter with the African-Korean roots Benson Henderson, bright and hard, like steel, Cheil Sonnen. All of them get five-digit fees and live the life of real stars. They have esters on cable channels, own feng sites, will recognize them in any city of the world. But in order to achieve these vertices, you need to give everything yourself, all your time. Is he ready for this? Vyacheslav Kashuba is not sure. While he made the main thing: overwhelmed himself, he went out to fight against rivals who were more experienced, and larger. What was the most difficult? He recalls street fighting in St. Petersburg: "It was most difficult to screak out the sand from the whole body!"

Underground

Illegal fighting is the topic that one or another pops up as soon as it comes to the mixfine. At the request "underground fights in Moscow" the Internet issues links to a series of journalistic reports. All of them are written extremely rigidly, abound in detail and, most likely, do not contain the words of the truth.

"In the twilight of the night club gather guys with fists like sledgehammers. The losers often leave the arena onto stretchers, "writes one author. Another draws an atmosphere even more sinister: "The Moscow police began to detect the corpses of young people. Obviously violent signs of death said that the guys were killed in a fight. But where, how and who remained a mystery<…> And after a while there was a terrible truth<…> In Moscow, underground battles were arranged. The most real battles to death. "

In the database of the Investigative Committee, the only mention of victims of fights is dated 2008. And then it is not about the underground battles there, but about the official championship. A 16-year-old participant in the karate tournament in Kemerovo died of cardiovascular failure, having hit the chest. The blow was within the framework of the rules, disorders did not find violations. Began the absence of the crime, they did not initiate a criminal case.

The existence of bloody underground battles is denied in the metropolitan police department of the Arbat district. In the late 90s, it was about this area. Legends went: allegedly the most terrible tournaments took place in gambling establishments on Arbat. "If it was once it was, I left for a long time," says an employee of the department who asked not to call him names. - Today we have no data on informal fighting tournaments. "

With this assessment, the President of the Federation of Pankration of Russia Vladimir Kleshevov agrees.

Around the so-called Street Fighting is more noise than real facts. Yes, we have information about such tournaments. But almost always the initiative of adolescents who saw the films. The case ends there with a pair of broken noses, and the next day, teenagers begin to engage in Parkur or something else that they saw on the TV. In other words, all this is not serious.

Main men's work

The boom around the amateur mixfit is alarming official organizations.

All these battles have no main component of sports - children's sections, systematic, integrated work with young people. Everything I see is the desire to earn, "Vladimir Kleighshev is crushed. - The organizers of amateur tournaments want to protect themselves from responsibility to the maximum. Up to the fact that they force fighters to sign contracts, where they take on all possible risks. Is it like a sport should be like?

Kleshev suggested to take an example from Fedor Emelyanenko, the legendary MMA fighter. Here he is all right, president believes: Fyodor trains youth and his own example guides it to the right sports channel.

The 21-year-old Tolgat came to Moscow from Uzbekistan, and he, unlike the President of the Federation of Pankration, the amateur tournaments on battles cause only enthusiasm. Six days a week, the Tolgat repairs the sidewalk on Leninsky Avenue as part of a construction brigade. Then, if the strength remains, goes to the platform with horizontal barns in the Neskuchny Garden. MMA fighters love horners altogether. It is believed that they allow the muscles to be increasing: so that they do not interfere with the speed of the hands. The Talka gently folds the T-shirt with the logo of the promotional company M-1 and begins to work out shocks.

In his homeland, he was engaged in Thai boxing, not long - just a year and a half. But in Moscow, he heard, and this is enough to recruit on fights and become a star.

Construction is not my life. This is the second, the Tolgat will summarize. - And most importantly - this is a fight.

One hit. Second. The third. The fiftieth ... when it comes time to enter the cell of the mixfit, he wants to be in shape.

Like a tag, work out their blows and other men. They do it in gyms. In parks. In the entrances, while waiting for the elevator. In their own kitchens, no one sees no one. They work programmers, sales managers, freight forwarders, anyone. But the main thing is that even their relatives may not be guessing about it - this is not their work. The main thing is the fight.

One hit. Second. Fiftieth…

"Bread and Spectacle", "says the ancient Roman proverb about the gladiator battles. "And the money!", I can safely add in the modern world, because fighters without rules in the ring receive decent money. And if we consider that the organizers of the fighting are constantly looking for new Fedorov Emelianenko, then in honest battle you can earn not only the first small fee, but also a major contract with promoters per million rubles.

Submit applications and perform in championships on battles without rules, maybe anyone. Such competitions pass quite often. To the Urals, for example, two weeks ago came a large combat organizer to personally find talents and conclude a contract with them.

More than 40 fighters from different cities and countries came together in the ring and spent three fights each. The winners were able to win the title of champion and conclude a multi-million dollar contract with us, that is, to start earning a decent money with battles, "the organizers from AMBITIONS Management told.

Our correspondent went to the tournament of lovers to personally check whether it is possible to earn, fighting in the ring against the current athletes MMA (the most popular type of martial arts, where athletes use mixed combat techniques).

To participate in the fights, it is enough just to find the telephone organizers on the Internet and leave your data: growth, weight, and contact phone. On the thematic sites, long before the day of the competition post announcements about the recruitment of participants. You just need to monitor updates.

Of course, for victory in a fight you need canceled health and workout in clubs. Some of them make it possible to train for free, and some of the fees from victories will take themselves later. Yes, and with search sites for the speech here will also help. On amateur tournaments, no one asks the experience of training. Everything is extremely simple and honest - here is an opponent and combat gloves, here is money for the victory. The main thing is to cope with excitement and gather with the forces.

Heavier to overcome psychological uncertainty, "says the novice warrior MMA Arthur Guliyev. - Always in the "cage" (view of the ring, fenced with a mesh) seems to be your opponent more and stronger. Can you win depends on whether you will convince yourself that you have already won?

Against me, as a novice fool's fighter, had to release the same novice, but all athletes were engaged in training. Therefore, a professional fighter MMA Egor Karovtsov came to the ring with me. "Thank you, I found a little," I thought, looking at the exit with melancholy. - It is terrible to think who is then stronger if this is weak. " Time in the ring flows completely differently than in ordinary life. It seems that the whole eternity passed, and the duel actually lasts even less than a minute. Doluba generously treats me with dental. As friends later, my report can be easily called "in Yekaterinburg brutally beat the journalist" Komsomolski ".

I miss a blow to the blow. As I do not try, the fists of the enemy punch my blocks like a hurricane - a card house. But I do not turn off. And even trying to cut his offender. But instead, I miss a series of shocks. In the middle of the round I suddenly smiles at luck: unexpectedly the legs of the opponent are in the area of \u200b\u200breach. I cling to the partner's knees, drop it into the ring and find yourself on top. I am a personal, but only a couple of seconds. The enemy immediately throws me off and "rewards" by another power reception. Two minutes later, the long-awaited gong sounds, and I crawl off the ring.

Do not hang your nose! - Soothes me the cabbage rolls. - Not everything is so bad. A couple of months of training, and you would have overcome the first fighter.

According to the MMA fighter, the athletes are usually declared for competitions after three months. As, for example, a student of Golubtsova - Guliyev Arthur. I spent everything in training anything, and already defeated the first two rivals in the "cage".

The secret battle clubs in the Urals still exist hundreds, but there are almost no underground competitions, it disappeared.

Now it makes no sense to follow the money. The rates do it all the same, and the fighting has become so much that they just officially declare, and participate. And how much can you earn - it depends only from you, "says Galtsovets.

Fight club
Late evening. Painting of Moscow. Our jeep climbs to the village of Novostroeks "Palace Type". The ray of headlights snatches from the darkness unfinished two-storey cottage with several foreign cars in a huge iron gate from the house there are loud voices, laughter and slamming of open beer cans. Through the garage we pass inside the house. Silocawatt light bulbs barely grabs to see faces.
On the first floor I come across a hefty guy in a bright red sports suit, begging on an imaginary pear. A little indeed, two in sports trico exchanges exchanged shocks. Eyes get used to Hedgehogl. In the corner of the room on a wooden bench meditates one healthy in the purple wrestling trico - such wearing specialists in captures and throws. Opposite the knees of shoulders, his potential opponent in the same trico. Warm up, not taking a glance from the meditating colleague. At the exit from the room, arms crossed on his chest and leaning off the back to the door jamb, quietly talking with a guy in Kimono Britogol Verned in T-shirt-wartow and ripped shorts. All these people are the famous Moscow gladiators - underground fighters without rules.
We rise to the second floor, in a bright and spacious bed for fights. Curly, smells of beer and fresh chicken grill. In the corner of the room a large round table; On it, on pages of scattered portraits, appetizing smelling, somehow broken hot chicken carcasses. Nearby banks with beer. In the center of the room there are several old women's sports mats - the Gladiator's Arena. Along the walls on low benches, the visible and inherited beers of the audience. The thick smooth buzz of votes: jokes with the mater, docking, laughter. In respectable bosses, the audience is not at all like. Wherever it looks - the wasteless shoulders, closed in stretched shirts, bull necks with thick gold chains. Persons painted from accepted and exciteed. Judging by phrases, they themselves do not miss the ability to take part in the fights without rules. So there is: I am in the inner tournament of the Moscow Federation of Lawlessness Fights. And I have to see the fight of newbies.

Bet on a couple
Finally, the first fighter appears on the roar of the carpet - the first fighter appears - threshing in a red sports suit, with whom I encountered on the first floor. In appearance - years of thirty five. From under the extracted eyebrows in the audience shoots a sharp look. Greaty dreamed to melts (in battles without rules, the participants leave on themselves the minimum of clothing, in order not to stain her blood), impatiently shifts from foot to the leg in anticipation of the opponent's exit. The second fighter did not make himself wait: the figure of one of the sparring discharged in the doorway appears in the doorway. Understanding, he begins to slowly approach the first and, having grazing with him, just becomes near. I'm starting to perplex. My bewilderment is aggravated by the peace of mind. But all the next few seconds clarify. From another door to the room enters a brithogol versil in T-shirt-wartow, which I met in the training sentence at the bottom, and after him his interlocutor appears in Kimono. Both are partitioned and stood at the other end of the carpet, overlooking the views in the first pair. Clear: It will fight two for two.
On the internal competitions, gladiators-spectators also put on their colleagues. But these amounts, of course, are much lower than those who do real spectators. Most of each other can put no more than $ 300-700. It happens less. That evening I was lucky: I watched the fighting of the "bodies". The victory of each colleague on the workshop was evaluated on average for $ 500.
From the crowd of the spectators, there was a cry "Come on!", And after him, a squall of screams and screams, encouraging and raising fighters appeared to each other. Couples began to converge. Apparently, who will fight with whom in each of the "twos" was determined by the gladiators themselves in advance. Verzil, who came to the arena in T-shirt-wartow, chose himself into rivals similar to him the gabarites of the fighter (before the battle he was dressed in red), and his colleague (the one was in Kimono) - Sparrine. The fight untied the "red", who tried to strike his opponent to his head in the head. That deftly left the blow, answering the same unsuccessful attempt by the right hook, but did not escape the following - knee in the side. This checking of the fight for a few seconds spoke opponents to the sides, but with even more excitement they again rushed to each other.
Another pair of gladiators, at first unsuccessfully trying to get each other with his hands, attracted the attention of the audience with elements of Thai boxing - a hail of powerful kicks on the body. Havingated in this cocks in this cock, they encountered the second launched pair, aggravating the blow to the chest, missed "red", and he almost lost the equilibrium. He was angry with the missed strike and a collision, he rushed to his rival and pushing him behind his feet, knocked his back on his back, trusting the reception to the lightning blow to the nose: I just blew up the spectators - it seems they themselves were ready to rush into battle. In the meantime, the matte, taking a second strike, leaning the left enemy with the left hook, and how he had jumped to his feet. Wallow headed, his opponent got up in a pit with a diet.

Masters of golden seams
The interrupted noses and broken hands in the underground battles without rules are not at all, but, probably, the only rule. But often fights ends for rivals much more serious injuries requiring surgical intervention. Resperating the organizers of the fighting tote holds in their state of one or two doctors, which are present on each bay. The payment of these specialists of the rapid overlay of the seams varies depending on the level on which competitions are conducted - from $ 300 to $ 1 thousand per month. But, frankly, such field doctors are only an element of showing the seriousness of the street fight, transferred to underground rings of elite nightclubs.
It's impossible to spend the duel and get out of it without a single scratch on true battles without rules simply impossible. And recently, the place of underground rhystalis is noted by one or two digesting ambulance carants. Services hired overnight Brigades of physicians on wheels are an average of $ 300 plus a bonus, double privilege - the ability to observe battles along with the rest of the audience and besides for free. Typically, the nightly institutions of the capital, specializing in gladiator's ideas, in the hours of fighting closes for special services. Do we need to be members. And here doctors in Favor.

Leaving the carpet, the partners only slightly begged on the burglary, baked brown bruises. Well, tomorrow, lots can bring them in battle against each other.
Meanwhile, the wrestlers came out under universal screams and hooks. The presentation continued.
Some experts argue that on the relative profitability of battles without rules enter the golden dozen business, passing forward only by arms trade, drugs, oil, prostitutes, but already ahead of the production of "Painted" vodka and pirate book publishing. Therefore, as the unforgettable Freddie Mercury sang, the show should - and will continue, as any show with the taste of human blood ...
