Stefan Struve: Mina bästa år är framför mig

Stefan Struve har inte gått match sedan mars 2013, då han tog sig an och slogs ut av Mark Hunt vid ”UFC on Fuel TV 8”. Efter mötet visade det sig att Struve hade problem med hjärtat, men under helgens UFC 175 ser vi honom tillbaka inne i oktagonen.

Här kan ni bland annat läsa hur Stefan ser på sin framtid i UFC:s tungvikt, via ”FOX Sports”:

The thing is I never really felt much until the fight with Hunt. I never really thought it would be something wrong with the heart. The fight with Hunt, I was sick, and when you get sick with this condition then that together that’s just killer. My heart was functioning at like 60-percent around that time. When you get sick and your body needs to deal with a virus and the heart leakage, it gets really tough for you.

I can’t wait to get back in there healthy and show how good I really am because in my opinion, I should not have lost that last fight. I should have been on a five-fight win streak now. I want to pick up where I left when I beat (Stipe) Miocic. I want to continue my streak. Really in my opinion, I should be able walk through everybody up until the top five and I should be able to be competitive in the top five and win fights there, too. My best years are coming up. I’ve been in the UFC since my early 20’s so far, and heavyweights don’t peak until they’re 30 or in their 30’s so my best years are coming up.

Struve kommer att möta Matt Mitrione den 5 juli i Las Vegas.
