Marat Grigorian refused to match his opponent’s energy during their heated verbal exchange last week. The Armenian veteran is planning to have his fists delivered the real message when they finally meet in the circle.
Grigorian faces Rukiya Anpo in a featherweight kickboxing conflicts A 173 On Sunday, November 16, in Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan. The 34-year-old former Title-seconder is introducing this crucial matchup against the promotional newcomer who attacked his professionalism during their confrontation of the press conference.
Anpo launched verbal missiles at the Armenian striker, criticized his weight -saving problems and label him a one -dimensional hunter. The former triple K-1 champion brought intensity that borders on despair during their public face.
But Grigorian maintained his calmness during the heated exchange. The representative of Hemmers Gym has witnessed every psychological tactic that is conceivable for almost two decades of professional competition. Nothing rattles the seasoned veteran anymore.
He regards the eruption of ANPO as a typical debut nerves of a hunter who comes in one championship. The aggressive attitude of the promotional newcomer only strengthened the conviction of Grigorian that emotions will betray his opponent when the pressure peaks.
“I kept calm. He tried to talk, but I would rather not have had that much. I am ready for war for me. I am always ready for a war. I am here to fight, not to talk,” he said.
“In my eyes he was emotional. I just focused. He can talk. I will do my talk in the ring. That is the best way for hunters to support their words.”
Marat Grigorian predicts Knock -Out against Rukiya Anpo
Marat Grigorian plans to transform the change in the press conference into physical destruction. The Armenian striker built his reputation on devastating knockout power and finished more than half of his 68 career victories on spectacular fashion.
The garbage talk of Rukiya Anpo has only tightened Grigorian’s focus for their meeting in November. The veteran sees this confrontation as a perfect preparation for challenging the winner of the main event of the evening between Superbon and Masaaki Noiri.
The “Sloopman” is confronted with unique pressure that makes his organizational debut at such a huge stage. Grigorian believes that the global platform of one championship creates anxiety levels that experienced everything Anpo has experienced in K-1 competition.
That psychological benefit can be decisive when they finally arrange their differences.
“Of course that confrontation gives me extra motivation – I get sharper than ever. I go here for 110 percent. I see a knock -out,” he said.
“This is his first fight in one, and this is a big arena. The pressure will be very hard for him. This one champion stage is different.”
