Russian fighter Alexander Shlemenko thinks hockey star Alexander Ovechkin makes a mistake drinking beer after games. The former Bellator middleweight champ called this habit very bad for a famous athlete. He worries about public figures setting poor examples since many people look up to them. Shlemenko knows some folks handle alcohol fine, but fears losing control can lead to tragedies like deadly car crashes. He compared casual drinking to how drug problems often start small.
Shlemenko believes even beer might become a gateway to worse habits. The 40-year-old fighter has 66 wins in his mixed martial arts career against 15 losses and one draw. He faces Vlad Kovalev at an RCC event in Yekaterinburg on May 31. Sports writer Nikolai Yaremenko disagrees with Shlemenko. He sees Ovechkin as committed to healthy living, sports success, and family values.
