"One of my biggest dreams came true. I was able to do it in kickboxing, and I did it in MMA as well."
According to Idman.biz, this was said by Japanese Chihiro Suzuki (66 kg), who won the Championship Belt at the "Landmark 7" Tournament in Baku.
"Black Super" lightweight champion, who defeated Azerbaijani MMA fighter Vugar Karamov, said that he analyzed the fighter well: "I watched Vugar's fights. I got defensive for a moment. I secured the angle of the kick that I was going to land by moving to the defense. I won as a result of this blow."
He also announced his next plans: I have a lot of work to do in "Rizin". I will continue after that. I will work for more young people in Japan to engage in this type of sport. I want to create an institution to make amateurs professionals."
Chihiro also talked about the rematch and said that it is possible: "I am already the champion. It would not be right for me to talk about this as a champion. But if the opponent wants, I will fight again."
It should be noted that in the main match of the "Landmark 7" Tournament, Chihiro Suzuki won by knockout in the 1st round. With that, he got the belt of "Rizin" organization.
