Gennadiy Kovalev: «I plan to win early, do it for my fans, for Primorsky region»

FIGHT NIGHTS GLOBAL 63 (April 21, Vladivostok) participant Gennadiy Kovalev shares his ambitions about the fight with Jorge Cezario de Oliveira and hopes to enter the cage for a champions belt.

“The organization decides whether I become a contender or not if I defeat Michael Hill, but in my opinion, I have enough experience. I won in Brazil, in Korea and in Japan. I won the fight with Alexei Ivanov who is considered one of the top FIGHT NIGHTS GLOBAL welterweight athletes. Why not? I’m just the kind of guy to be a contender. Let’s see who becomes the champion in Gadzhimurad Khiramagomedov versus Georgy Kichigin fight. Me, personally, I like Khiramagomedov. Gadzhimurad is a good grounder, on the other hand he can fight while standing also. He’s a more diverse fighter than Kichigin. If he is prepared, he becomes champion. When I picture myself going at Gadzhimurad in the cage I see a fantastic fight. MMA is a sport where anyone can lose. I have all that is needed to win. I visualize how I’m winning every time before the fight. At FIGHT NIGHTS GLOBAL 63 I plan to win early, do it for my fans, for Primorsky region".
