👊 Ice MMA tournaments are held in Russia.

Participants of the fights put on skates, hockey gear, gloves, and take to the ice rink.

The creators were inspired by the Russian tradition, when boyars engaged in fistfights on frozen rivers.

🇷🇺 Little hero: The Minister of Public Security of the Sverdlovsk region awarded an 11-year-old boy for saving people from a fire in the Aleye Parusa settlement. Alexander Kudryavtsev presented a Letter of Gratitude to athlete Eugeny Pugin.

On the night of December 29, the fighter saw smoke from a neighbor's house through the window. He woke up his parents, the family called the firefighters and rushed to help. The sauna was on fire, and the fire was already spreading to the house, but thanks to the lightning-fast reaction and competent actions of the boy, the neighbors survived.

The Minister noted Eugeny's courage and determination, and the deputy of the Beloyarsk Municipal District Duma, Valery Refat, and the staff of the Kosulino Fire Station personally thanked the young hero. It's worth noting that the boy practices jiu-jitsu at the RMK Combat Sports Academy, where his sister also trains.
