—There was a fight three years ago. So, did you give in? And how have you changed now?
— I answered more than once. I have matured and become wiser. Of course it got better. This is basically a new battle for me. In principle, this can be called revenge. We have both changed.
The opponent, in addition to fighting, increased his strikes. I think in the first round he will focus on stand-up. If there is a fight on the field, it doesn’t matter. Physically and psychologically, I am ready.
— Are you called the underdog in combat? Does this stimulate you?
— First, it stimulates. And it doesn’t bother me, it doesn’t bother me,” Viazigin said on .
