if it is mma, in 2-3 mins everything is over

Q: let's have a talk about the fight with Peter first.
A:I am very proud to win the gaem. I have managed the game exactly how I planed to. Beating the legend of K-1 is something to me, too.
when I was 12-13 years old watching TV, Peter was fighting then. As a fighter & a person, I repect him. eventhough he would feel a bit down losing from me..... He would have known it coming....a Fighter is a fighter...... as long as you are in the ring you have to fight.....

Q: according to this result some would say MMA has beaten K-1
A: I started K-1 the game with Badr which I have won. I thought I could get Remy, I lost to Remy. eventhough I lost, I controlled the game. I have fought present WGP champ. & gave some damages to him. as a new K-1 fighter i have won Peter which I consider myself proud.
Q: you had to win the game because it was MMA VS K-1?
A: it's not easy to say... different rules..... K-1 fighter fighting in K-1 rule would have better chance & also the other way round too. exception for cropcop. nothingn can't be said for sure....
Q: even you have beaten Badr & Peter?
A: I deserve to be complimented because nobody has complished such as.............???(laugh) Although it looks similar, it's complitely different thing. no one can be upper position in MMA & K-1. If I have the chance to fight the 8 fighters in final in MMA rule, I could finish them in 2-3 mins. because it's the different ring..................

Thinking Of Teixeira
Q: in the draw you had no choice, if you had one, who would you have picked???
A: anyone is ok but i may have thought of fighting him. Eventually the tournament is the satisfation for everyone. meaning every fighter has ended up with the ones they want to fight. right?
Q why Teixeira?
A: Alister's Sixth sence..... (laugh) without no particular reason..... I just wanted to fight him.... my scenario is Beat Teixeira & fight Badr then face Semmy in the final..... I don't know how it will all turn out but recently everything is going the way i expect so I assume this time the same.
Q: Teixeira is the champ of world athlete Karate. it may look as mma fight.
A: mmmmmmm I think it is just two men fighting in a ring, not a confrontation..... it will be a tough fight.
he will be aiming for the victory too but i am the one winning..... study hard & execute the strategy...
Q: what do you think of the world karate champ. title?
A: I don't take that much notice of it..... I would have better reputation when I have won the fighters who have such titles....which gives me more motivation...

It was not a luck beating Badr
Q: how confidence are you to win the WGP?
A: I am extremely comfident bit you have to fight 3 games in one night in the tournament. anything can happen but winning is the goal of my dream & I am working hard for it. K-1 is not my ultimate goal, it's just something I need to go through.... I would like to enjoy this as long as i can...... if it's not, return to mma (laugh)
Q: Badr said he wouldn't allow you to go back to mma next year with the victory of WGP. which means he will not let you win....
A: there was a rumor about Badr & me rematch in mma, eventhough it all disappeared... well, it really doesn't matter to have the rematch under K-1 rule.... the ones who said that I was lucky to beat him, I want to prove them wrong.... He is saying that he is going to stop me from winning, I am only concentrating on the victory. leading the game wisely..... that' it.
Q: K-1 fighters will try thier best to stop you, does it bother?
A: not at all. mma is more tough. in mma 5mins. 5 rounds, standing, grounds, knee kicks, face poundings.... in Pride thr first round was 10mins. I was a top fighter in pride too. I think K-1 is easier.
