“Hamzat is the hardest working guy, but there is something in his body that reacts to the hard training he does. He catches colds very easily, symptoms like runny nose and cough, which we all have and that’s usually no big deal. I saw how Khamzat’s body reacted differently as his training got harder and harder.
Honestly, I can’t even imagine how upset Khamzat is. I know he feels very bad. He is ill and this greatly affects his psyche. There is an important fight coming up, a major tournament in Saudi Arabia, and a lot depends on it, but he is forced to withdraw. Khamzat is currently going through difficult times. But I know him and I am sure that he will come back very strong,” Gustafsson is quoted on the MMA Mania portal.
