russian judoka Mahmadbek Mahmadbekov after winning the Grand Slam tournament in Astana, he told that he never doubted himself when stepping onto the mat.
On Saturday, Makhmedbekov, competing in the weight category up to 73 kg, defeated the representative of Poland Adam Stodolsky in the final of the tournament. The competition is a qualifying stage for the Olympic Games in Paris.
“You know, I don’t have a drop of sweat, but it’s now. How much we work in training is different. Not many people can understand that. During this month, I have accumulated so many injuries that I urgently need to rest. I just overloaded myself.
I don’t think I’m perfect, there are no wrestlers like that. Although you are ten times world champion, like Teddy Riner, in any case, you can always make a mistake or invent something new. If you think of yourself as the strongest, you simply won’t grow.
I’ve been training since I was five, so doubting yourself is not respecting your job. I don’t doubt myself when I walk on the carpet. Yes, there are errors, but they can be worked on and corrected. But going out and doubting yourself, being afraid of losing – I don’t admit it, “said Makhmadbekov on the airwaves of the program Tous pour le match!”. on the channel.
Live broadcasts of the tournament in Astana can be viewed on Match! Fighter”, as well as the sites sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru.
