Arseniy are you happy with Rasul’s performance at ACB 90 or did he make you nervous that night?

- I’ll say this: there’s always a room for improvement! But considering he had a long lay off Rasul showed a great fight and delivered!

Which techniques that you’ve been working on during preparation came in handy during the fight?

We’ve been focusing on footwork, boxing technique and it all worked out in the cage! We did good work prior to the fight and as a result scored a victory!

What kind of mistakes did you notice during the fight?

After rewatching the fight I figured that we need to focus a bit more on our strength and conditioning. Other than that, as soon as we get the name we’ll start planning our preparation and see what aspects we need to work on 

Is there anyone in particular who would you like to see Rasul face next?

Honestly I don’t have any preferences. I’m sure Rasul is able to give a tough fight to anyone in the division so we’re waiting for offers! Anyway, it’s going to be an exciting fight because it’s always is when Rasul fights. He’s motivated to get the championship belt in the organisation!
