Kharitonov ta’ 37 sena għeleb lil Who’s Who minn uħud mill-aqwa ġellieda tal-MMA tal-piż tqil., Inklużi Alister Overeem, Andrei Arlovski, Fabricio Werdum u Pedro Rizzo.

Kharitonov kellu ftit l-aħħar kliem qabel ma tibda uffiċjalment l-azzjoni:

Sergey, kellek 33 MMA professjonali matul il-karriera tiegħek u issa int 37 snin qodma. X'inhi l-motivazzjoni tiegħek fl-MMA? Għaliex tibqa’ tiġġieled?

SK: “Il-ġlied sar parti essenzjali minn ħajti. Litteralment ma nistax ngħix mingħajrha. Inħobb l-isfidi ġodda, u hu għalhekk li nikkompeti f’avvenimenti differenti u issa, per eżempju, Għandi sfida ġdida: żewġ ġlied f’ġimgħa waħda. Għada għandi ġlieda tal-MMA fl-M-1 Challenge 92 u f’ġimgħa, Għandi skedata ta' kickboxing.

“Din hi l-ħajja u rridu nieħdu riskji, għax l-ebda riskju, ebda premju. Allura, Jien lest għal dan. L-MMA hija l-passjoni tiegħi, imma nħobb il-kickboxing, wisq, u issa jien interessat li nikkompeti fiż-żewġ sports.”

Jingħad li għal heavyweights l-età ta 35 huwa l-prim, għaliex dan huwa l-ħin meta heavyweights huma normalment pjuttost esperjenza, imma xorta fil-forma. X'taħseb dwarha?

SK: “Kollox jiddependi. Ġellied wieħed jista 'jilħaq il-prim tiegħu fi 25, ieħor fi 35, imma, fl-opinjoni tiegħi, jiddependi fuq konxju tiegħu. Agħti ħarsa lejn xi boxers bħal George Foreman, li ġġieled sakemm kien 48. Anke f’diviżjonijiet eħfef hemm ħafna eżempji ta’ ġellieda qodma ta’ suċċess bħal Bernard Hopkins u anke Floyd Mayweather Jr., min mhux daqshekk żagħżugħ illum. Jekk tkompli tħarreġ iebes, tista' tiġġieled għal żmien twil.”

Darbtejn biss fil-karriera tiegħek irbaħt b'deċiżjoni. Kif jiġri li tispiċċa kważi l-avversarji kollha tiegħek?

SK: “Jien dejjem inħares lejn l-avversarju tiegħi; jekk jagħtini opportunità biex inlestih, Nagħmilha. Ma jimpurtanix kif nirbaħ il-ġlied u m’għandi l-ebda mira li nispiċċa lill-avversarji tiegħi. L-unika ħaġa li verament importanti hija r-rebħa.”

Anton Vyazigin għandu l-poter f’idejh. Għandek pjan għall-ġlieda li jmiss jew għandek bżonn wieħed?

SK: “L-istil tal-ġlied tiegħi jiddependi mis-sitwazzjoni, imma naħseb għada se jkollna ġlieda stand-up. F'dan l-istadju tal-karriera tiegħi, Jien ma tantx nibdel il-kamp ta' taħriġ tiegħi għal avversarji ġodda. Għandi pjuttost ħafna esperjenza, allura nista' nidħol f'The Rage u nagħmel dak li għandi nagħmel. Madankollu, Normalment nara lill-avversarji tiegħi’ tissielet. Rajt żewġ ġlied ta' Vyazigin u nista' ngħid li huwa atleta żagħżugħ kbir b'daqqiet ta' ponn tqal. Ninsab eċċitat ħafna għax jagħmilni kuntent li żgħażagħ bħalu huma lesti li jissostitwixxuna. Min jaf kemm fadal ħin, sena, tnejn, tlieta, forsi anke ħamsa? Dawn il-ġuvini għandhom karrieri twal quddiem u jridu jkomplu jikbru u juru l-aħjar tagħhom!”

Il 6′ 6″, 265-lira Vyazigin, li ġej minn knockout sensazzjonali ta’ 16-il sekondaZaur Gadzhibabayev dan Marzu li għadda fi M 1 Isfida 89, sib fil- “sedil sħun” li jwassal għall-konfrontazzjoni tal-Ħamis biex twieġeb xi mistoqsijiet:

Għidilna dwar il-kamp ta’ taħriġ tiegħek. Bdilt ħafna mill-metodi ta 'taħriġ regolari tiegħek għal ġlieda kontra Kharitonov?

OF: “Il-kamp ta’ taħriġ tiegħi ma kienx differenti minn kwalunkwe kamp ieħor. Bħal dejjem, Kelli ħafna sessjonijiet ta’ sparring, ġġieldu ħafna, u kien iffukat fuq taħriġ funzjonali. B'mod ġenerali, kien biss kamp ieħor. Tħarreġ id-dar f'Cherepovets, għax dan huwa fejn jappartjeni. Għandi relazzjonijiet tajbin ma 'ġellieda minn ħafna gyms, imma qatt ma mort imkien f’kamp ta’ taħriġ. M'għandix biżżejjed flus biex imsiefer għal kamp, Naħdem għalija nnifsi.

Inħossni komdu nitħarreġ fil-ġinnasju tiegħi. Għandi tim kbir, inklużi xi heavyweights, u dejjem ngħinu lil xulxin. Jekk għandi ġlieda skedata, guys għinni; jekk xi guys oħra jkollhom ġlied, ilkoll ngħinuhom.”

Kemm se tiżen għall-ġlieda?

OF: “Naħseb li din id-darba se nkun tal-inqas 265 liri qabel il-ġlieda, forsi anke daqsxejn itqal. Ma ngħidx li jien daqshekk enormi, hemm ħafna guys akbar minni. Meta kont tifel, Kont inkun mqaxxra u twila u biss meta kont fl-Armata bdejt niżżid il-piż. Issa, meta jien 265 liri. Jien nifs tajjeb, u naħseb li dan il-piż huwa perfett għalija.

X'inhuma t-tbassir tiegħek għall-ġlieda li jmiss? Int se tiġġieled lil Kharitonov bilwieqfa jew tixtieq teħodlu?

OF: Fil-klassi tal-piż tagħna, punch wieħed mitluf jista 'jtemm il-ġlieda, allura naħseb li għandna ċans indaqs biex nirbħu din il-ġlieda. Waqt il-kamp, nitħarrġu għal kollox, għalhekk inkun lest niġġieled miegħu bilwieqfa imma, jekk ikun meħtieġ, Jien se niehdu, għax huwa importanti ħafna fl-MMA li tkun tista’ tbiddel il-pjan tal-logħba waqt il-ġlieda.”

Agħtina l-ħsibijiet tiegħek dwar it-titlu vakanti M-1 Challenge heavyweight. Inti tara lilek innifsek bħala champion fi ftit ġlied aktar?

OF: “Issa, Jien ikkonċentrat fuq il-ġlieda li jmiss iżda, iva, żgur jekk nirbaħ din il-ġlieda nkun in-No. 1 konkorrent heavyweight. Madankollu, Ma naħsibx dwar dan issa. L-għan tiegħi huwa li niġġieled kontra l-aktar avversarji b'saħħithom u b'esperjenza, li huma kklassifikati ogħla minni.

“Mhux qed niġġieled f'San Pietruburgu għall-ewwel darba u nieħu gost ħafna nikkompeti f'din il-belt. Naħseb li xi fannijiet se jgħixu għal Sergey, imma se jkun hemm ukoll ħafna partitarji li jappoġġjawni fl-M-1 Arena fl-24 ta’ Mejju!”

Ivan BUCHINGER vs. Andrey Krasnikov Tops solid M-1 Challenge 89 karta prinċipali

Marzu 3, 2018 FNU47 Ħalli kumment

Baħar. 10 in Saint Petersburg at new M-1 Arena

SAINT PETERSBURG, Russja (Marzu 2, 2018) – Former M-1 Challenge featherweight champion Ivan “Buki” Buchinger hopes to bounce back strong from his title-losing loss against M-1 Global-debuting Andrey Krasnikov, Marzu 10 in the M-1 Challenge 89 avveniment prinċipali, at the new M-1 Arena in Saint Petersburg, Russja.

M 1 Isfida 89 se jkun live-streamed mir-Russja f'definizzjoni għolja fuq www.M1Global.TV. Telespettaturi se tkun kapaċi li tara l-ġlied preliminari u karta ewlenija billi jidħlu fuq biex jirreġistraw fuq www.M1Global.TV. Il-partitarji jistgħu jaraw l-azzjoni kollha fuq il-kompjuters tagħhom, kif ukoll fuq Android u Apple smart phones u pilloli. M 1 Isfida 89 is available onwww.FITE.TV (karta preliminari hija b'xejn, $7.99 għall-karta prinċipali)

BUCHINGER (32-6-0, M-1: 7-2-0), ġlieda kontra l tas-Slovakkja, captured the M-1 Challenge featherweight title on October 17, 2014, stopping Tural Ragimov on punches in the fourth round, in the M-1 Challenge 52 Ġlieda tal-Lejl. Buchinger retained his title for more than three years, losing his title belt last Novembru 24 fil M-1 Isfida 86, when he was knockout by punches in the opening round by Khamzat Dalgiev.

“I did not suffer any injuries,” Buchinger reflected on his loss to Dalgiev. “Physically I felt good, but I was extremely disappointed because my opponent was so lucky to deliver a nice punch. It was just a lucky punch that knocked me out. Everything went as planned up until that moment, when I made a single fatal mistake. He was lucky that night, bit I don’t want to belittle Khamzat’s skills. He’s an excellent fighter and a great person.

“Would I win a rematch? I don’t want to make any predictions but, if we fight for the second time, we will see who is going to be the winner. But I am sure that I am a better fighter than him. Real champions do not care about who they fight, so I will fight any opponent to get my belt back. Everybody knows who the true champion is, hekk, as soon as I have an opportunity to win the title, I’ll do it.”

The road back to the top for Buchinger will not be easy. Avversarju tiegħu, Krasnikov (14-3-0, M-1: 0-0-0), plans to make a big splash in his first M-1 Global competition, positioning himself for a future M-1 Challenge title shot. The well-balanced Ukrainian, li rebaħ 13 tal-aħħar tiegħu 14 tissielet pro, is equally adept on his feet or ground.

“He is a young, strong opponent,” Buchinger spoke about his next opponent, “who is always ready to go until the end. I take all my fights seriously and the next one won’t be an exception. My coaches and team have watched some of my opponent’s fights and helped me to understand what I need to do in the fight, what I need to avoid. I am sure that I can get my strap back and this fight should become my first step. This time I feel a little bit different because I don’t feel any pressure, which I used to feel as champion.

“I am happy to fight in Saint Petersburg at the new M-1 Arena. I love Russian fans because they really understand MMA and are always very hospitable. I am going to make a huge comeback and win in style!"

Russian kickboxing specialist Viktor Kolesnik (11-3-1, M-1: 2-1-1) takes on M-1 Global first-time fighter David “Davi Boxer” Silva de Souza (7-2-0, M-1: 0-0-0) in an intriguing match-up of contrasting styles of fighting.

Former UFC and Bellator fighter, Canadian flyweight Chris “The Greek Assassin” Kelades (12-3-0, M-1: 1-0-0) may have found a new home in M-1 Global, but he faces a tough challenger, Vitaliy Branchuk (23-7-0, M-1: 2-3-0), ta 'l-Ukraina.

The always popular heavyweights will also be in the spotlight as Zaur Hajibabayev (6-1-0, M-1: 4-0-0), Ażerbajġan, attempts to extend his M-1 Global win streak to five against always dangerous Anton Vyazigin (8-2-0, M-1: 3-1-0), tar-Russja.

Rounding out the highly competitive main card is a lightweight match between another former UFC combatant, Frenchman Mickael “Ragnar” Lebout (16-8-2, 1 NC, M-1: 0-0-0) in his long-awaited M-1 Global debut, against veteran Sergey Faley (20-10-0, M-1: 4-1-0).

All fighters and fights are subject to change.
