Vyacheslav Datsik

Vyacheslav Datsik is a Russian fighter who has achieved success in Muay Thai and mixed style. During his career in the ring, Red Tarzan - as the athlete was nicknamed by fans of martial arts - has earned a reputation as an eccentric person capable of outrageous actions. True, Datsik received wide fame not for sporting achievements, but for insulting statements against people of different nationalities, high-profile crimes, no less high-profile trials and even escape from a psychiatric hospital.

The future athlete was born on December 31, 1980. Vyacheslav's homeland is the city of Slantsy, in the Leningrad Region. As Datsik recalled in an interview, he began to fight from childhood: his peers often bullied and "teased" Vyacheslav, he responded with aggression, fights often ended with assault. Several times, similar situations brought the athlete to a hospital bed - Vyacheslav had several concussions and other serious injuries.

True, Datsik himself did not remain in debt. Once the boy bit his rivals, and one high school student, by his own admission, even pulled out his cervical triceps with his teeth. After this incident, Vyacheslav was registered with the police. Conflicts with high school students made Vyacheslav interested in martial arts. The first disciplines for him were judo, kettlebell lifting and taekwondo.

After graduating from school, Vyacheslav entered the local school, choosing the specialty of an accountant. But sports attracted the young man more than study, so soon Datsik abandoned textbooks and devoted all his attention to training. In 1998, the young man moved to St. Petersburg, where a new era began in his biography - professional fights, high-profile titles and serious competitions.

In the crowd of professional MMA fighters and spectators, Datsik quickly gained a reputation as an unpredictable opponent. Vyacheslav could practically not react to the blows of the enemy for almost the entire round, forcing everyone to believe in his defeat, and then defeat him with one precise blow. However, even this skill did not help Datsik to achieve sporting heights. The fact is that Red Tarzan repeatedly violated the rules of the competition, did not pay attention to the referee's warnings and allowed himself eccentric and even inadequate antics, for which he earned many disqualifications.

Datsik had his debut victorious fight with Andrey Orlovsky: during the entire confrontation Vyacheslav was noticeably inferior to his opponent, but at the end he pulled out victory with an unexpected powerful blow to the jaw. But further high-profile fights ended not in favor of Datsik. The athlete lost to Vitaly Shkraba, Andrei Budnikov, Romazi Korkelia - in these battles Vyacheslav resorted to dishonest methods, hit his opponents in the groin, challenged the judge's warnings, for which he received disqualifications.

Datsik also had successful fights, but the statistics of defeats outweighed the victories, which, according to sports critics and observers, also had a negative effect on the athlete's psyche, making him even more embittered.

And even the support of fans did not keep Red Tarzan in the big sport: the fighter left the ring in his youth, at the very dawn of his career, at 22 years old. The athlete performed in the weight category over 92 kg, Datsik's height is 185 cm.

He is often compared with another outrageous fighter - Charles Bennett, who received the nickname Crazy Horse. Charles fully justified this nickname with his defiant behavior and non-standard fighting techniques and, like Datsik, did not want to obey the rules and laws outside the ring, for which he earned an impressive prison sentence.

In the winter of 2007, a photo of Vyacheslav Datsik appeared on the pages of news publications. True, this time not in the sports column, but in the section of the criminal chronicle. The former athlete was accused of a series of robberies on cell phone stores and jewelry stores. However, during the investigation it turned out that Datsik was mentally ill: Vyacheslav was declared insane and sent for treatment to a psychiatric hospital.

Later, Datsik admitted in an interview that he specifically sought such results of a psychiatric examination. According to Red Tarzan, it is much easier to escape from the clinic than from prison, which he soon took advantage of, choosing the right moment. In 2010, Vyacheslav was transferred to the Druzhnoselskaya hospital (in the Leningrad region), which lacked proper security. The fugitive was searched throughout the region and in Moscow, but he soon showed up in Norway, where he tried to obtain political asylum.

At the same time, a video circulated on the Web in which Alexander Emelianenko, an eminent MMA fighter, criticizes Datsik's actions and even calls him a "scumbag". Red-haired Tarzan did not remain in debt and recorded a response video message to Alexander, in which he did not hesitate in expressions addressed to his former colleague in the ring.

Meanwhile, a Russian court ruled on the arrest of Red Tarzan in absentia, while a Norwegian court charged Vyacheslav with illegal possession of a weapon (he voluntarily surrendered the Makarov pistol to the police). As a result, the former athlete was denied asylum, and in the spring of 2011 Vyacheslav was extradited to his homeland. In Russia, illegal crossing of the state border was added to the list of charges against him, and Datsik himself was sent to the "Kresty".

In December 2012, Datsik's verdict was announced: he received 5 years in prison. Vyacheslav was to serve his term in a general regime colony. In 2016, Red Tarzan was released, but not for long. The very next day he was again taken into custody: over the past day, the former athlete managed to take part in the riots in one of the dens in St. Petersburg, as well as burst into the hotel room and force the guest out of the room. In the corridor of the hotel, the woman managed to escape and escape.

A lengthy trial began again over Datsik, during which the man was under arrest.

Little is known about Vyacheslav Datsik's personal life: Red Tarzan did not have an official wife, however, according to information on the Web, the fighter had a lover named Xenia. The woman gave birth to Vyacheslav two children: the son of Yaroslav and the daughter of Vasilisa.

On March 19, 2018, the trial ended, and the verdict was read out to Vyacheslav Datsik. His friend Stas Baretsky, a singer and showman, came to support him and surprised everyone with a funeral wreath, put on his head in protest.

However, even such shocking measures did not soften the judges, and the former athlete received 3.5 years in prison, which he will have to spend in a strict regime colony. Now Red Tarzan has already begun to serve his sentence.
