World-class Russian MMA fighters סערגעי כאַריטאָנאָוו, Mikhail Zayats and Alexander Volkov from a recent training session
You have been training on the same team for so many years. How would you describe Mikhail as an athlete?
וואָלקאָוו: “He works very hard as a fighter, completes all workouts to the end, and is among the last to leave the gym.”
What did you learn from him during sparring and training sessions?
וואָלקאָוו: “How to work to the utmost extent, both in training and in combat. When I watch Mikhail train, he inspires me to work harder and not to be lazy.. We always have small competitions while training and we push each other to work even harder.”
Which of you is more helpful to preparing for battle?
וואָלקאָוו: “When Michael had no fights, he helped me a lot, אַוואַדע. In my training camp, he was like a wrestling coach, helping me work on physical exercises as well. I would say that during these last few years, he was more involved in my training than I was in his. אָבער, now he has an upcoming fight and I’m fully involved in his preparations. דערצו, his future opponent is 6 ft. 4 inches tall. אַזוי, I imitate his opponent’s style to help Misha prepare for the fight.”
What prediction do you have Mikhail Zayats’ upcoming fight?
וואָלקאָוו: “I personally hope for the best. I expect him to end his fight with a bright victory, by knockout or submission. Although this won’t be an easy fight for him because his last fight was a while ago (פעברואר. 28, 2014,). I know from my own experience that even a one-year gap between two fights can make it very hard to show your best fighting qualities. Mikhail has a huge motivation now. He is very hungry for battles and victories too. אַזוי, I’m waiting for the triumphant victory of Mikhail Zaytz.”
