Russian fighter ASA Andrei Koshkin told that in a fight with compatriot Yusuf Raisov you need to try to work from a standing position.
Earlier, Koshkin’s manager Alexander Skaredin told that the confrontation between the fighters is scheduled for March and will take place in the welterweight limit. Both athletes have previously competed in the lightweight division. Koshkin has 23 wins and 10 losses; in the last fight, the Russian fighter broke a two-fight losing streak. Raisov has 21 victories and three defeats. In the last fight, which took place in the lightweight category, Raisov defeated Alexander Matmuratov, Koshkin’s partner in the “Rat” team, by unanimous decision.
– The fight with Raisov will be a good test for me. You will have to win this fight through your work – work in a standing position, that is, using striking techniques. You will have to impose your own fighting style, apply pressure, work as number one and defend yourself against transfers on the ground. If a transfer ensues, do not lie on the ground and get to your feet as quickly as possible, move away from the fight and again impose your work rhythm in a standing position, ”Koshkin told .
All ASA tournaments are broadcast live on and Match! Fighter”.
