– What are you doing?
“Returned from the sacred land not so long ago, such an opportunity smiled. I think I will now return to the room and my further actions will be seen. As for the last battle – so much has already happened in this life, and such a series is incomprehensible, as if it were witchcraft. Everything happens in one mode.
We have to organize training camps, work with different training partners. I work in my entourage, and there they cannot give me a serious charge. I understand that I’m above the class, and that’s it. Organizing two fights a year and saying I’m the best is also wrong. Practice plays a big role in our game.
When life isn’t boring and it goes like this: a dark sequence then a light one, you have to restart, recover. I think after what I went through, few people would recover. We are not given tests that we cannot pass. I feel like I have another test.
I kinda want to come back, I want to perform, everything continues, I feel young, but as if a note was missing. I can’t figure out which one.
Have you recovered from the knockout?
– The knockout was more because when I was stealing, I was hitting the corner from behind. Nobody saw this moment. The hematoma was serious, but I just didn’t talk about it. That’s why I passed out, I caught the kick in the air when I was pulled off the ground with my feet. But in general, everything was fine – I smiled. You have to rejoice and understand that you have to change something: either the age or the fighting style. Don’t cut like I cut. I don’t play for the points, but for me, so that the public is happy.
– Are you invited to boxing or bare fists?
– They proposed fights, but disagreed on finances. They offered both boxing and kulak. On a cam in MMA gloves that they gave away. Offered by Arena, offered by Our Business.
But I’m not a newbie to get paid as a newbie. The same cameras are a traumatic sport. Also, we all fully understand what I can show in combat in terms of showmanship. And now I think about my health, which I can’t fight every day.
– That is to say, in terms of finances, only the ASA league is satisfied so far?
– At first, when I was playing, I didn’t think about finances at all. I thought the people I was going with were my family and that’s it. And when I had already distanced myself from everything, for five years that I was alone, with my own situation, I realized that I had to build my own path. There is no longer a relationship of trust. You understand this is a game and we are just tokens in this game.
“Do you have a contract in principle with ASA?”
– I’m free-flying now. They offered me a fight for the month of August. I started training, I’ll see. I will have to go back, but at the moment I don’t belong to any league.
– You said that you thanked the United Russian Fighters team, for which you now play. Recently, a guy called this team United Sexy Boys and said that he was a challenge … Vagab Vagabov saw this, and after 8-9 hours a video with an apology appeared. And how is it going?
– I think he realized he was confused, that’s all. There is no such thing. And if he did it on purpose, he also realized he was wrong. It’s normal, a man must admit his mistakes. He probably didn’t remember it at first, but he must repeat often: “United Russian fighters… United Russian fighters…”. I didn’t remember right away either. I repeat too.
– Marif Piraev, who is about to fight for the title of Fight Nights, said that it was you who brought him to the section once.
– I brought it. He was my student, and I invested in him a lot of what was in me. It even happened that the coach wanted to kick him out, and I asked him to leave him under my own responsibility. I always tried to help everyone, be it Marif or Ali Bagautinov. My name translates to “messenger” and I try to be helpful. It is the meaning of life.
Why did they want to kick him out?
– He came from boxing, his hands were like in amateur boxing, probably, he did not suit the trainer with that. But I realized he had a great perspective. And he had a very good track record. If he had been led normally and put in the right hands, he would now be fighting in the UFC.
– Will he beat Nariman Abbasov now?
– I did not see the training, but I know that he was preparing in a good school. And Nariman is a good fighter, patient, characteristic, we also know him. For Marif, this is the biggest test of her life. In terms of opponent and in terms of image. If it explodes, it explodes.
Where are you going to watch this fight?
– Where it will work.
– And in theory, could you go to the tournament itself?
– Look, Fight Nights is not a foreign organization to me. My leaving there was only because of Kamil. Because at the heart of my relationship with Kamil was. And everyone understood that. To say that I am a traitor… Probably, somewhere I was thrown there too.
– Kamil said that if you hadn’t left Fight Nights, everything would have been much better for you.
– Then it turns out that I have to sit down and do everything to order. Why can’t I choose my path if I’ve walked it all my life. Life brought me to Kamil, we worked together. There was a misunderstanding, I chose my own path. This is my life, my road and the struggle with myself.
Have you ever regretted leaving?
– I don’t know how to regret, I say “Thank God” for everything. And so, it happens, I watch, I miss it. The show they put on, no one knows how to put it on.
– Can you imagine that you and Kamil will once sit down, talk, and all disagreements will remain in the past?
– Sure. I’m not looking for enemies here. He remains for me, as I said, a dear person. We have just separated. The memories that remain, they are dear. He was like a father to me, I said of him “named father”. It is not like that. I’m usually very sentimental.
