The great enemy is called in your own training camp where, according to him, finally returned to the form that it once seemed the strongest hitter on the planet.
Since the last interview of the Index's been half a year, a lot happened since then in your career. Let's start from the K-1 and the fight against Peter Aerts?
"Fans have elected me to compete in K-1 the last 16 against the legendary Peter Aerts. It was a great fight, I won it on points. But more important is that I proved I am stronger than him, technically better and that I this time, a higher class. "
Followed by two lightweight MMA fight ...
"Yes, in the meantime I have done several MMA fight, which ultimately proved to be quite easy. Thompson and Sylvester have conquered in less than a minute. It's not the most dangerous fighters on the planet, yet they can be overcome in such a short time. Nobody likes to lose, especially not in 30 seconds. "
Badr Hari defeated you interrupt the K-1 semi finals? You were satisfied that the fight ended?
"Yes, Badr Hari was great in that fight. Deserved odbrojavao judge me, but after that I have not received a single swipe, I was shaken and I do not know why he stopped fighting. Such things happen in K-1, so not surprised. If I win, the finals would be against me and Semmyja Schilt. We two are from the same team, so I do not regret the defeat. "
In the final fight hard to save injured legendary Fujita, etc. is passed as against Mirko Filipovic?
"The fight against Fujita was very good. I knocked him after one minute. It was a terrible knock-out that he was badly hurt. Fell into a coma after the fight, and six hours was amazed. Only it was in the hospital managed to put in order . See the fight footage that follows him in the locker room. I called later in Japan so I asked how Fujita and they told me that everything was all right, but that he remained in hospital for several days under observation. "
What's next plan?
"Now I train for several days, and here in Croatia, I came to relax a bit. The next fight in March in I Dream. The opponents are not."
Why not defend the title in Stikeforceu almost two years? The story is about the American fear of doping control.
"The truth is that I defended the title two years in Strikeforceu. Actually, I had something scheduled in 2009. But ispriječila injuries. The real truth is that at the start Strikeforcea no real opponent for me. Everything was in its infancy, and I had a fight with anyone. They were disobedient and I, meanwhile, appeared in Dreamu in K-1. When they reached the right opponents, I 2009th injured. I cut and made serious bacterial infection. "
Do you speak about the violation that occurred in barskoj brawl?
"It was a small injury in fact, no infected and hand me a couple of swollen right up to the elbow. Accident occurred in a nightclub where we are brother and I fight with sedmoricom guards. Seven compared to one it was. I would not have entered in detail, but everyone wants to help his family, and I in this case his brother. In the end it cost me a lot of money. I had to cancel a fight, and then me antibiotics which I was treated completely exhausted so I had to denounce and combat the August. "
Great you wish the fight against Fedora Emelianenka. Will we see this treat?
"This year I will certainly fight Fedor. There is no doubt in it, but if he says no. I am in it personally do not believe, only a little afraid of his manager. I'm sure he wants to fight, but I'm not sure how many people behind it they want it. "
Why do you think they could stop the fight?
"Because I know that I am the man who can win. Anyone can win and everyone has their weaknesses. Only to have the right tools to win. If you have no quality, no weapons, then none of this. Of course, they can lose to Fedora . He is very experienced, very smart. always very meticulously thinking about your opponents and how to defeat your opponents. But I think I will go out as a winner. "
How do you rate the rest of the competition in Strikeforceu?
"In addition to Fedora, this is Brett Rogers. Great guy around who is not too worried. Powerful, but too much story. And with him will fight soon. There is Fabricio Werdum, and definitely want to kill him. He is a great lajavac , but I think that he is first in line with Fedor and will fight the wait. In the end, there is Andrei Arlovski. Very good fighter against whom I will also surely fight. "
What is the K-1 fights? In the last interview you told me that it was past, and in the meantime you are still performed in the K-1 finals?
"I said that I will stop with K-1. All I'm better at stojci and have great fun in those battles. But this year I plan to put the focus on the Strikeforce, a priority for me is a fight against Fedor. The first part of that, then everything else .
Are you on the turn of the UFC and the clash with the strongest competition in the world?
"I would not say that the UFC is the strongest competitor. I think that Strikeforce become stronger and stronger, here I am, Rogers, Fedor, Werdum, Arlovski ... I'm not sure, but I would say that even when Strikeforce views teškaška Division may be better than UFC at this point. So I do not think about the turn of the UFC. "
Last time we talked a lot about Copu Cro ...
"Stupid me again talking about Cro Copu. I had an offer in return, but he refused. That's it. If people avoid me, this is the end able to fight. But I will always tell the truth."
Mirko meanwhile ubilježio crushing defeat of the Junior dos Santos. Have you watched the fight?
"I think Mirko has not trained for some time that fall. He made a mistake in training, may have a bad sparring partners. Maybe it was good to come train with us. We're doing well and working hard and I am calling this way. It would be me very pleased to come to our team and train with us. "
He claims that things started the better your compatriot Ivan Hyppolite. What do you think about it?
"I know John Hyppolita, he was the coach Remyja Bonjaskog. But I think it is quite wrong for Mirko. Why? Because Hyppolit was champion in kick boxing in the middleweight division, and that is very different from the MMA and Sore against the world teškaša. I think it's completely the wrong choice of trainers and training methods. this will only worsen his form. Mirko should start thinking what is best for him, what he needs. "
And what he needs?
"I train in the Netherlands, trained kick boxing for 15 years and this is the reason why they can compete at the highest level in the K-1. But also know that we need to kick boxing to be good at MMA-in. Mirko should tactical training forces him to be more work in orchestra and jiu jitsu, and to improve their ground £. I understand what he is trying, but it is wrong. stojko training is neglected all other aspects of this sport. "
But the favorite against Rothwella?
"Yes, but I expect to win Ben Rothwella. Otherwise, do not follow too many UFC fighters, but Rothwell is spectacular. The truth is that great, but Mirko should have no problems. Of course, all depend on the tactics that will be implemented. If the form, I think Cro Cop will emerge as the winner. No major problems. "
What is your brother Valentjinom, should be fighting in Karlovac?
"I'm not sure why Valentjin not here. I was really very jellied schedule in the last three months. Six fights there were, now I was on vacation and do not know what is exactly going on with him. We are in contact. He told me not to come but why, I'm not sure. "
Last summer you spent in Croatia. Return to?
"In Croatia, it was wonderful, so I have good time every year and I plan to come with you to the coast. It is safe. I was in Split and Hvar, and I'm delighted. I plan to frequently come to Croatia."
Finally, as the current position on the world scale MMA teškaša?
"I think that currently one of the top five teškaša world. There are more and Fedor, the big guy from UFC, Brock Lesnar. I do not know for others, but I would say that this includes Junior dos Santos. This guy really impressed me I think that is a great career ahead of him. "
This time it looked even bigger and nabildaniji, and we thought that it was impossible. However, horse meat, which claims that his secret, he apparently "do good". Joking aside, Overeem MMA is a great hot dog, and the 2010th could be his year.
