our questions after arriving in Moscow from Los Angeles.

– Fedor, fans called the victory over Arlovskim almost the most impressive and important in your career. We agree with them?

Hard to say how important … not important victories do not happen. At
stake was the battle my belt by one of the best fighters of mixed
styles. Fight this level may not be important.

«Revansh with Arlovskim me interesting»

– There is active discussion of your tactics in the last battle.
According to one version Arlovsky dominated, but you can not quite cope
with it and eventually won only due to the occasion. According to
another – your plan for the fight and had just been to keep in the
background, let Arlovskomu a little tune up, and at the right time to
use the opponent\’s error. As was the case?

– The tactics I have – to be the most versatile and well-prepared for
battle, as in shock, and wrestling techniques. And there are already
looking to the circumstances at the time of the battle that the opponent
will propose that I be able to offer. – you obviously like to offer Arlovskomu trap?

– I waited, when Andrew mistake.

– Do Arlovskogo good at it to attack you with both hands blows.
Attempting knee, after which Andrew has been in the knockout, it was
emotion on his part?

– No, Andrew has been used to very effectively use this method, send them to the opponents and knock-down, and knock.

– So you were ready for a strike on his part?

– Not quite ready to say so, better to say have been developments.

– you would have been interesting to conduct a match-rematch with Arlovskim?

– Interesting, but, honestly tell me it would be interesting to meet in the ring with a new rival.

«Arlovsky to this fight was better prepared than Fedya, we can not hide»

– C Barnett, most likely your next opponent, it is interesting?

– Yes, Joshi interesting.

– But you do seem to be saying that because it is from Joshi good friends, do not want to go against him in the ring.

– Yes, it would be better to try to force him to train, but if the fans of this battle will be interesting, why not hold.

– What are your plans?
– Now the home. I would like to visit the holy places. And then go to
St. Petersburg, you need to finish shooting the film «The fifth
penalty».

Vladimir Voronov: «Roach was lucky that I was not out a»

– is recognized until the knockout Fedor Arlovskogo, worried over the outcome of the battle?

– Absolutely not. Fight evolved exactly as we intended. Arlovsky to this
fight was better prepared than Fedya, we can not hide, but he caught
our ploy. Our tactics were simple – embarked on a fight, pulled
Arlovskogo themselves and knockout. Everything turned out as planned.
Sure tactical victory. Fedya Arlovskogo forced open and perfectly
fulfilled blow toward which we are fulfilled in practice.

«Roache as baba language poloschet»

– A Arlovskogo boxing trainer Freddie Roach said that Fedor just lucky …

– Roach said? Roache as baba language poloschet … he shouted to fight a
lot, that will knock. And after the fight at the press conference that
it was nemnogosloven: «Well, yes, Fedor stronger». And now apparently
started again. It was not Fedor, and Roach himself that I was not
available.

– took part in the tournament still one of our warriors –
20-year-old Kiril Sidelnikov. And he was not able to address openly. Can
you comment on that failure?

– Cyril young athletes, is not yet fully formed. It is just a tactic to
zero. He initially had other indications for the fight, but he decided
to run down an opponent, remove it by themselves, but silenok is not
enough. But I think that nothing terrible has happened. Psychologically
Kirill feels good to be recruited in the experience, prepare for the new
tournaments.
