Interview

Whats training preparation been like and where have you spent the training camp?
It has been great. I have spent my camp in Oslo.

How does it feel finally getting back to the cage after being absent for exactly a year on fight day?
It feels great! Im super excited to do what I enjoy so much!

Will there be ring rust when you enter the cage or maybe extra motivation?
Probably both. But I’m sure I will shake it off and be able to perform!

Your opponent is a experienced Spanish middleweight with over 20 professional fights, how prepared are you for this challenge?
I have trained with all of my great sparring partners such as Mohsen Bahari, Håkon Foss, Kenneth Bergh. And I had so much great coaching by John Raino Dokken, Eduardo Rios, Aristo Manzouri and Pablo Garza.

You’re still a young fighter in the sport, what are the plans for 2014?
I will show the world that I am the best middleweight in Europe!
