MOSCOW, June 19. Former double champion of the Absolute Fighting Championship (UFC) Henry Cejudo called for separating politics and sports by supporting the Russians. Previously, all domestic athletes were excluded from the Glory kickboxing promotion. «We really need to separate sports and politics. Whatever happens to the world, sport helps to overcome gap. This is outright discrimination,» Cejudo wrote on social networks, adding the hashtag #freerussianathletes (#freedom to Russianathletes).
