Oleg, which EC were those for you? How do you feel?
Those were my fifth EC. I liked everything – good organization, great atmosphere.
Were the fights easy for you?
I wouldn’t say they were hard. I expected much worse, especially as I was in a new weight category. I wanted to meet Wladimir Mnackanian at the table. And I expected more challengers in the given weight category.
What are you preparing for now? Will you change your training process in any way?
I’m preparing for the A1 now. After the backstage fight, I’d like to correct my training process a bit. But I don’t want to say why (laughs).
Was it the fight with Farid Usmanli?
Absolutely not. I liked that fight a lot, he’s a strong guy. I hope I’ll win in at least one arm at the A1. The draw will show how it’ll go.
