Mixed style Russian fighter Ivan Shtyrkov commented on the victory Vladimir Minev against the Brazilian Rafael Carvalho in a fight which took place on Friday in Elista.
Mineev fought a fight against Carvalho according to the rules of kickboxing. Vladimir won by technical knockout in the second round.
“In no case did I want Mineev to be defeated before the fight with me. I didn’t think about it and I didn’t want to. My failure (defeat against Konstantin Erokhin according to boxing rules) has nothing to do with Vladimir’s sport. He’s a great guy, he did his job. Well prepared. This is his domain. The main thing is that there are no injuries. On our side, all the documents have been prepared. We sent the contract. All that remains is to organize a fight and a fight. I won’t have a fight before the fight with Mineev.
An MMA fight was scheduled for September 22, but the big tournament was canceled. He was transferred to a small arena. Everything went well, so now the priority is the fight with Vladimir. And drawing the conclusion from extreme events, I will not win so many fights in a short time. We do not see ourselves from the outside and we cannot correctly assess our abilities. Nothing. It is an experience from which we must draw the right conclusions. Life goes on. It doesn’t happen that people don’t lose or get eliminated. There is no need to focus on this. We waited a long time and now it happened, ”reports MMA.Metaratings.ru according to Shtyrkov’s words.
