At the beginning of the decade, the family, consisting of medical parents and three sons, has repeatedly moved. The first place of relocation was Saransk, as the father had Mordovian roots. And the family settled in Ulyanovsk. It was due to the fact that Vladimir grew up in this city, the nickname Volzhanin was entrenched in him. The childhood of young Volodya was typical of the child X living in the province: constant fights on the streets and hobby for Western militants.
The future martial arts star could continue the professional dynasty - but Konstantin took this task, the elder brother works as a neurosurgeon. Although my mother dreamed that Vladimir also became a doctor. Acquaintance with martial arts of the mines, along with Golovikhin, however, Ulyanovsk Streets showed that some films for a real fight are not enough.
As Volzhanin recalls, on the way to a neighboring store, he could clash several times with his peers. Once, little Volodya lost and returned home almost in tears. This was the reason to sign up in the karate section. The Volzhanin was helped by the coach in the hall Evgeny Golovikhin, one of the first Russian tops of the world kyokushinky. Under the leadership of the USSR and Peace champion, Vladimir developed rapidly, but Sensei made much more for his student.
At the age of 14, Mineev lost his father, and Golovikhin financially helped a teenager who temporarily moved to the village of Arkhangelskoye. It was Evgeny Vasilievich who helped Vladimir to go to kickboxing and put the technique of blows with his hands.
A year later, the Volzhanin classes began in K-1 became the champion of Russia in juniors in this discipline. Also, before the onset of adulthood, the young athlete successfully spoke according to Muay Tay. Having reached such heights, Mineev realized that there was no sparring partner of the level in the Ulyanovsk region-therefore he decided to move to Moscow to conquer new peaks.
Amateur Mineev career defends from the attack of David Radeff. The March of the year in the capital, Vladimir found a new mentor with whom, as the athlete himself claims, he developed his skills to the world level. But the main direction of assistance was, of course, in training. Here Vladimir very quickly achieved the result, almost on the move, taking the Russian kickboxing championship.
Naturally, such an achievement made him the first number of the national team. By the way, then Vladimir was not the midst, but performed within the framework of 91 kilograms. And in the semifinals, the Russian defeated the Spaniard Frank Mugnos, the future participant in the major promoter Enfusion and k, the next year was marked for Mineev by traveling to his first world championship.
And again the semifinals with a very serious opponent - Saulo Cavawari. After 5 years, the Brazilian will become the Glory champion in the receipt - but then the Brazilian lost to Volzhanin. But in the finale was not lucky - the Nigerian Pole will study theft of Vladimir. Mineev celebrates the victory at the European kickboxing championship.

The Russian was content with bronze, losing to the unanimous decision of Serb Nenada Pagonis. But the next year will finally give Vladimir the necessary result, albeit in Che: after passing not the most famous athletes on the way to the final, there he will meet with Sergey Masloboev himself. Now the Lithuanian sledgehammer is considered one of the most dangerous receipt of world kickboxing and the top representative of Glory.
And for lovers, Sergey's potential was already visible. But Mineev did not prevent the future champion of the strongest professional organization, becoming the winner of Che, Volzhanin decided to complete the attempt to speak along Muay Tay. And it turned out to be good: the passage to the final of the Russian Championship of the year, where Vladimir again agreed with the legend.
Now it was Artyom Vakhitov, the future king of the Glory Premier Division. A native of Kuzbass, who performed at home, was so charged that he broke his nose with Mineev and won the title thus. The transition to professional kickboxing Mineev wins Felipe Micheletti at the WGP KickBoxing event in May, the motivation for the transition to a professional level consisted in the birth of Aurora's daughter, since you will not earn enough money by amateur performances.
Therefore, Vladimir alternated the battles in these two categories.

A career in the MMA Mineev at the Fight Nights tournament and Vladimir instantly justified the title of superstars of kickboxing: 5 victories in a row by knockouts in the first rounds! Not all of them were mined on FN, but still determined the status of Volzhanin. Further, Mineev showed his ability to learn, because he designed 2 consecutive triumphs by submishes.
So Volzhanin went to the first serious check. This battle was the first for the Russian when he was unable to finish his opponent. But still defeated a unanimous decision. This was followed by a debut defeat against the former contender for Bellator Bellator Michelle Falcao. In fact, the coastal visitors of the Fight Nights 56 event saw a rather strange and viscous duel: the mines hit the Mineev much more precisely, but allowed the Brazilian to go down.
A separate solution left many questions, so opponents organized an immediate revenge. Now Volzhanin confidently controlled the distance from Palcao’s passages, which led to victory by knockout for the round. Following Mineev designed two more Victorias to first converge with Magomed Ismailov. That duel ended with a draw with a rather strange calculation of points: one judge gave in favor of Mineev, while the other with the same verdict took the side of the magician.

However, the title battle with Dauren Ermekov was held at the Gadzhiev site - there Volzhanin became the middle weight champion Fight Nights. As expected, after the conquest of the Mineev belt, he decided to close the question of the winner with Ismailov.

The next opponent was the Brazilian Fernando Rodriguez, in whom the KSW Veteran was a KSW Veteran, using his strength as a weapon.
True, in the third round he was no longer enough - almost under the final gong Vladimir laid the South American Hook with the South American. Because of which he threw a towel, although Rodriguez himself was outraged by the decision of the coach. A year later, Mineev returned to the ring, using the vacation received on his vacation. Again, an opponent from Brazil, but the ex-champion Bellator is Rafael Carwallo.
The Russian, the Russian spent the starting segment on adaptation - and in the next he began to attack in series, completing the duel with his favorite left hook. A week after this victory, Kamil Gadzhiev officially announced the organization of a kickboxing battle between the Volzhanin and the well -known weight Ivan Shtyrkov on November 18. It is noteworthy, the Ural Hulk has already managed to speak in shock discipline, showing himself from the best side against Peter Romantic.

It all started in April GO, when after the victory by a knockout over Michael Falkao Volzhanin challenged Magomed. Interestingly, the magician then was not a fighter of the Fight Nights Roster.
Ismailov agreed to accept the challenge only for the condition if he was satisfied with the contract. After all, initially Gadzhiev sent an agreement designed for 5 battles. And the total amount of the contract did not suit the Dagestan. As a result, a compromise between the athlete and the League was found. Interestingly, Ismailov headed the tournament by holding only one battle in the new league.
But this did not prevent Mage from showing the seriousness of his intentions. Although this was not surprising in this, for Ismailov was preparing under the leadership of Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. Rodown of Mineev and Ismailov in front of Revenge in a year only by the end of the second five-minute Mineev was able to get up and finally apply shock equipment.
