UFC gick idag ut med att de har signat en ny tungviktare i organisationen, nämligen den ryske brottaren Bilyal Makhov.
Den 28-årige Makhov är före detta OS-medaljör och flerfaldig VM-mästare. Här kan vi se vad han hade att säga, via ”MMAJunkie”:
I’m the type of guy who is constantly looking to challenge himself, to push the limits and see how far I can take it. For example, after a long and successful career in freestyle wrestling, I decided to try my hand in the Greco-Roman style. I always enjoy challenges, and MMA would be the next logical step.
… In my career, I have always had three components: hard work, time and attention. I think that if I can drive these three points in the direction of MMA, then anything is possible. I can achieve success at the highest level of the sport, yes.
