Yaroslav Amosov made headlines when he withdrew from his title fight in order to join with Ukraine in fighting the Russian invasion. He even buried the Bellator belt underneath his home to keep it safe. Now, he returns from Ukraine to resume fighting, despite the war raging on. And he explained why. “Once central Ukraine got liberated, and the city I’m from, once that area became free of Russians, I started to kind of feel like I was getting a lot of pressure from my family and from my friends and loved ones,” Amosov told MMA Junkie through an interpreter.
