“I can’t drop everything and go because my back hurts.” What opinion will they have of me then?! The room is a place that relieves all my stress, all the negativity. After the gym I am free, there is no burden.
— Freestyle wrestling is only remembered at the Olympic Games. Do you hear this often? It’s a shame?
— It can be a shame when the wrestlers win the most medals, but show others (laughs). This kind of jealousy happens. The wrestlers themselves are very humble people. They rarely give interviews and rarely appear in front of the cameras.
– What would you like for yourself?
— So that there is health first. If it does not exist, there will be no victories, no struggle, nothing will happen. So that others can benefit from me. So that I have great opportunities, so that I can manage them and society benefits from me.
