Muhammed Sukumov is scheduled to face Akop Stepanyan on September 8th at ACB Krasnodar. Muhammed has spoken about his upcoming fight.
- How is your preparation going?
This is a new challenge for me, as all of the previous fights. I’m training really hard under my main coach Islam Sadulaev and with other “Berkut” coaches.
- What about your ambitions?
Yes, as we know the title is vacant now, Yusuf has vacated it, but I’m not going to make big statements just yet. I need to win my next fight and then maybe I’ll ask to fight for a contender spot. But this fight is a great opportunity to show my level and to prove that I’m ready for a tough fights.
- Give us your thoughts on the reaction your opponent had when he got offered to fight you?
I’ve heard that Akop was surprised when they offered him to fight me. He might be surprised with the result
too.
