Kharitonov had a few last words before the action officially begins:

 

سرگے, you have had 33 professional MMA during your career and now you are 37 پرانے سال. What is your motivation in MMA? Why do you keep fighting?

 

 

 

SK: “Fighting has become an essential part of my life. I literally can’t live without it. I love new challenges, and this is why I compete at different events and now, مثال کے طور پر, I have a new challenge: two fights in one week. Tomorrow I have an MMA fight at M-1 Challenge 92 and in a week, I’ve got a kickboxing bout scheduled.

 

 

 

“This is life and we have to take risks, because no risk, no reward. تاکہ, I am ready for this. MMA is my passion, but I love kickboxing, بھی, and now I am interested in competing in both sports.”

 

It is said that for heavyweights the age of 35 is the prime, because this is the time when heavyweights are usually quite experienced, but still in shape. What do you think about it?

 

 

 

SK: “It all depends. One fighter can reach his prime at 25, another one at 35, لیکن, میری رائے میں, it depends on his conscious. Take a look at some boxers like George Foreman, who fought until he was 48. Even in lighter divisions there are many examples of successful old fighters like Bernard Hopkins and even Floyd Mayweather Jr., who is not that young today. If you keep training hard, you can fight for a long time.”

 

Only twice in your career you won by decision. How does it happen that you finish almost all your opponents?

 

 

 

SK: “I always look at my opponent; if he gives me an opportunity to finish him, I do it. I don’t care how I win fights and I have no goal to finish my opponents. The only thing that really matters is the victory.”

 

Anton Vyazigin has power in his hands. Do you have a plan for the upcoming fight or do you need one?

 

 

 

SK: “My fighting style depends on the situation, but I think tomorrow we are going to have a stand-up fight. At this stage of my career, I do not really change my training camp for new opponents. I have pretty much experience, so I can just enter The Rage and do what I have to do. بہر حال, I usually watch my opponents’ لڑائی. I watched two fights of Vyazigin and can say that he is a great young athlete with heavy punches. I am very excited because it makes me happy that young guys like him are ready to replace us. Who knows how much time we have left, a year, دو, three, maybe even five? These guys have long careers ahead and they have to keep growing and showing their best!”

سینٹ پیٹرز برگ, روس (مئی 18, 2018) – Russian heavyweight “Cherepovets Giant” Anton Vyazigin (9-2-1, M-1: 4-1-0) challenges MMA living legend Sergey Kharitonov (27-6-0, M-1: 5-0-0) next Thursday (مئی 24), headlining M-1 چیلنج 92 in a heavyweight SuperFight, at M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburg, روس.

The 37-year-old Kharitonov, undefeated in five M-1 Challenge events, has defeated some of the greatest heavyweight MMA fighters of all-time, شامل الیسٹر Overeem, آندرے Arlovski, پر Fabricio Werdum اور پیڈرو رزو.

 

 

 

6′ 6″, 265-pound Vyazigin, who is coming off a sensational 16-seconds knockout ofسے Zaur Gadzhibabayev this past March at M-1 چیلنج 89, sat in the “hot seat” leading up to Thursday’s showdown to answer some questions:

Tell us about your training camp. Did you change a lot of your regular training methods for a fight against Kharitonov?

 

 

 

AV: “My training camp was no different from any other camp. ہمیشہ کی طرح, I had many sparring sessions, wrestled a lot, and was focused on functional training. In general, it was just another camp. I trained at home in Cherepovets, because this is where I belong. I have good relations with fighters from many gyms, but I have never gone anywhere to a training camp. I don’t have enough money to go abroad for a camp, I work for myself.

 

 

 

I feel comfortable training in my gym. I have a great team, including some heavyweights, and we always help each other. If I have a fight scheduled, guys help me; if some other guys have fights, we all help them.”

 

How much will you weigh for the fight?

 

 

 

AV: “I think this time I will be at least 265 pounds before the fight, maybe even a bit heavier. I would not say I am that huge, there are many guys bigger than me. When I was a child, I used to be skinny and tall and only when I was n the Army did I start to gain weight. اب, when I am 265 پاؤنڈ. I breath good, and I think this weight is perfect for me.

 

What are your predictions for the upcoming fight? Are you going to fight Kharitonov standing or would like to take him down?

 

 

 

AV: In our weight class, one missed punch can end the fight, so I think we have equal chances to win this fight. During camp, we train for everything, so I will be ready to fight him standing but, اگر ضرورت ہو تو, I will take him down, because it is very important in MMA to be able to change the game plan during the fight.”

 

Give us your thoughts on the vacant M-1 Challenge heavyweight title. Do you see yourself as champion in a couple more fights?

 

 

 

AV: “اب, I am concentrated on the upcoming fight but, جی ہاں, definitely if I win this fight I will be the No. 1 ہیوی ویٹ مدمقابل. تاہم, I do not think about it right now. My goal is to fight the strongest and most experienced opponents, who are rated higher than me.

 

 

 

“I am not fighting in Saint-Petersburg for the first time and I really enjoy competing in this city. I think some fans will root for Sergey, but there will also be a lot of fans supporting me in the M-1 Arena on May 24th!”
