In March, 80-time UFC veteran Aleksei Oleinik allegedly lost everything, including his children and home, after his ex-wife, Tatyana Oleinik filed for divorce.
In an interview with Match TV, Oleinik shared his side of the story, claiming that he begged and pleaded with his ex-wife to save their marriage. “She filed for divorce. I didn’t want to divorce. I asked, persuaded, asked to save my family,” he said. Oleinik also appeared to have labelled her a gold dig, claiming that she had never thanked her for the gorgeous gifts over the years, including the jewellery, cars and the six-figure amounts she had made for their property.
Despite only getting one side of the story, Fight fans quickly slander Tatiana Oreinik.
Now she’s fighting back with the allegations and trying to straighten the record.
In a recent interview with Parry Punch, he challenged the claim that he took everything from her ex-husband in the midst of a fierce divorce, and shed light on what ultimately came between them.
“I’m not really sure why people are now hate me and discussing my personality as a sugar baby, or using other nice terms,” she said through the translator. “When we got to know each other in 2007, Alex had left his athletic career. It was a common decision for us. I was a big part of his comeback. It was a huge help from my side.
“The family issues began in 2021, but he was still in a career. In February 2021, he began dating my best friend behind my back. In June 2021, he left the family for the first time to be with her.
Tatiana claims that Alexei Oleinik left his family on a $500,000 mortgage
Despite allegations that Alexei Oleinik’s wife broke him down and made him penniless, Tatiana says it was him who managed to deal with the pile of debt, as she and her children fell into poverty.
“I try my best to make my kids happy and maintain a lifestyle, but as a mother of three underages, it’s impossible to work full-time,” Oleinik added. “My youngest son will be back home at 3pm. All of his kids have private tutoring, sports and other activities. It’s a full-time job looking after them and I work as much as I can.
“After Alexei left, he told Tatiana and his children he was leaving the big house, but he didn’t pay for his house, so it was taken back. They now have more than half a million dollars in credit. He didn’t promise to pay it in their agreement.
She also challenged Alexei’s claim that he left their home, saying that he was nothing but the suitcase and clothes on his back.
“It’s not that Alexei was left penniless by Tatiana. If the house was repaid, there would be no financial problems. However, due to the enormous credit and loans, he left an obligation to retaliate rather than wealth.
“When Alexei claimed he left only one suitcase, Tatiana laughed as he regularly sent multiple suits and belongings. He takes boner items and collectibles every time he visits.
Aleksei Oleinik, known to UFC fans as “The Boa Constrictor,” went 9-8 in his eight years of running in the promotion. Meanwhile, his disclosed income reached $712,000, or about $89,000 a year.
Since his UFC run ended, Oleinik has appeared in the Russian regional scene, suffering a first-round knockout loss against Geronimo dos Santos at BKFC 71 in April.
