UFC fighter Nikita Krylov considers lowkicks one of the main weapons in a fight with the reigning UFC champion Jamal Hill .
Krylov, No. 8 in the UFC light heavyweight division, in a conversation with , understood the tactic of dueling with Jamal Hill, if such a fight took place. The American won the championship belt at UFC 283 by defeating Glover Teixeira by unanimous decision in five rounds.
– The fighters have a certain common level: a set of skills, well-established indicators. And there’s functional training, which can change from fight to fight. And it’s interesting for me to check out all the guys in that aspect: raising the pace, leading to places not many people like to fight. For maximum heart rate. I would push. But not so frankly, because he manages to meet. And, as I said before, I mixed the techniques: hiding the kicks behind the punches, beating the front leg, on which he is frankly sitting, to bounce back. It’s such a boxing habit, but I don’t know how strong his legs are to withstand attacks.
In pure boxing, it will probably be difficult for me with everyone, but if you mix arms, legs and add wrestling, then there is the very zest that I would like to put forward in MMA. The more you mix, the more likely you are to have an attack, because of which you will take either the episode or the whole fight,” Krylov told .
Krylov is currently on a two-fight winning streak and will next fight Feb. 25 in Las Vegas against Ryan Spann. New UFC champion Jamal Hill’s stats of 12 wins, 1 loss and 1 fight have been declared invalid.
