Immediately 32 (!) fighters and ex-fighters of the Hardcore FC promotion accused the organization and its head Anatoly Sulyanov of non-payment of fees. All of them are preparing a class action lawsuit for almost 33 million rubles.
According to Mash, the following are sitting without money: Shamil Pakhan Galimov (500k), Valery Orel Osobov (600k), Dmitry Armeets Klimov (500k), Artyom Rostovsky Kuzmin (400k), Daniyal T-34 Elbaev (600k) and Abdul Trainer Ramzanov (200k). Plus another 26 fighters with total financial claims of 30 million rubles. They claim that they refuse to pay fees for fights from three months to two years – for all sorts of reasons. All questions about timing are answered with a vague “tomorrow” in all sorts of variations.
According to the fighters, the face of the league, Anatoly Sulyanov, permanently ignores them, sending them to the specialized specialists of Hardcore FC, who are constantly changing. Which is fair, because in fact he doesn’t owe them anything, because he has nothing to do with HFC. The fighters’ contract was concluded with the company “Hychefsi Media,” which owes the Federal Tax Service 2.4 million rubles (as of November 10, 2024).
The founder is model and Instagram beauty Diana Baranova, Sulyanov’s wife. The general director is ex-investigator of the Moscow Ministry of Internal Affairs A. Vaganov. The promotion's brand and trademarks are owned by Human Services Entertainment LLC – since January 2025 it has been transferred to Vladimir Mongush, a 32-year-old no-name from Kyzyl with debts in the FSSP database and the status of “unreliable borrower” in local microfinance organizations. Epic fighting game aka “Epic show entertainment” – similar. Until January, both offices were owned by Sulyanov’s father, Yuri. Anatoly himself was always only a face and had no legal relationship with organizations. It turns out that the fighters cannot have any complaints against him.
Mash repeatedly tried to contact Anatoly Yuryevich in order to listen and publish his comments on the situation. But the head of “Hardcore” did not answer the phone – neither on the phone, nor in TG, nor in WhatsApp. Perhaps he decided that this was a fighter calling, wanting money.
