We already told about the Dagestan fighter of the mixed single combats Abdoul Dadayev. As we knew, shortly Abdoul will go to the USA for performance in the organizations of this country.
Our correspondent managed to communicate Abdullah in St. Petersburg during training process where he told about the plans for 2014.
- What occurred new in your career?
- I work and prepare for new starts. I plan to carry out at the beginning of the next year fight over the ocean, to the USA.
- About what organization there is a speech?
- I signed the contract with K-DOJO club from the State of New Jersey. It is the well-known club in the world of the displaced single combats with very good trainer's structure. I hope, together we will manage to show good result. Contract term - 1 year, probably further it will be prolonged (smiles). Thanks to the head coach of "K-DOJO" Murat Keshtov for the invitation.
- It is a little about the collecting which has been carried out in Thailand and other countries …
- Collecting took place in Thailand very fruitfully - in day on two trainings, in the morning - shock equipment, and in the evening - training on MMA. There were many good fighters from all over the world - participants of UFC, Bellator and many Russian promotions. Besides trainings, managed to have a rest, look at local beauty a few. But nevertheless, more beautifully still anywhere I didn't meet the Dagestan nature.
- Whether it is possible to tell, what your dream will come true soon and you will act in UFC?
- On everything will Supreme, we will hope that it happens. Certainly, there is a strong wish to get to UFC, I more than 15 years in sports, want to achieve any logical end of this way. But while it is necessary to carry out still a number of fights in America in other organizations, to show a good record then it is possible to speak about the contract with UFC. Today negotiations with such organizations as Ring of Combat and CFFC are conducted. Probably, I will carry out the first fights to the USA in these organizations.
- Whether you are going to act once again in the homeland, in Dagestan?
- If there is a good offer from organizers why and isn't present, would act with pleasure (smiles). On the native earth it is twice more pleasant to act - to see a face of the family in a hall and how they sincerely worry about you, it is worth a lot.
- How affairs with injuries are today?
- Serious injuries aren't present, there are sometimes small injuries on trainings, but these are expenses of work (smiles). Now we place emphasis on functional preparation, crossfeat, run. Works in sparrings while a little, probably, it also allows to do without injuries.
- To have to drive weight as earlier?
- I think, it is necessary to drive even more, than (smiles) earlier. In America fighters of MMA drive on 10-15 kilograms and next day already practically gain all kilograms again. I for category to 70 kg had to drive 5-6 kg, but for good result in the USA it is necessary to drive more. It is necessary to refuse from hinkala (laughs).
- How often it is necessary to use force out of a ring?
- I try to bypass such situations, not to visit a place where they can arise. Certainly, everyone happens, but I always try to resolve them verbally. Times of street fights passed long ago - now many sports halls where and it is possible to show everything, on what you are capable.
- With whom you would like to meet and carry out fight?
- I would like to meet once again Andrey Koreshkov. This is the finalist of Bellator with whom I carried out the first fight to MMA. I lost that fight as acted not in the weight category and weighed 6 kilograms less than the rival. Now everything would be in a different way, and I wouldn't provide such chances to it. I hope, these words will reach Koreshkov (laughs).
- That first of all you want after the end of fight?
- First of all always only one thought - to call mother, to calm her, to please with a victory. She very much worries when I have a fight therefore doesn't watch broadcast over TV (laughs). Always, leaving in a ring, I adjust myself that I have no right to lose as it very much will upset her. Mother for me the biggest incentive in life and in sports.
- Whom would you allocate in UFC for the weight?
- In UFC there are a lot of good fighters in my category and each rival is in own way dangerous. If it is honest, I simply leave and I fight, without thinking of strengths of the rival. It seems to me, the one who is better ready psychologically wins a result.
- When you plan to leave for the USA?
- Now I wait while will make the visa. Approximately we plan to take off at the end of January for States.
