Transkrip (instagram_whisper)

Here with Conor McCarthy, cage warriors 210 doubling, that was a big, big win. How did that feel?
Unbelievable, yeah it was a buzzing for that. We're hoping to get it finished like that,
you know, we're practising that right hand, the kind of fake the jab, trolled across,
just worked perfectly, yeah, delighted with it.
And he's come back off a long break, Dimitri, what was that like game planning for him? Obviously
he's got quite a few cage warriors fights as well.
That's it, I just studied all his cage warriors tape, like I didn't really look at any other fights
and yeah, maybe expected him to come forward a bit more, he kind of took the back foot,
which I was hoping to do. I thought he was going to, like he did blitz me,
but I knew my footwork was going to be kind of quick to get out of there,
and so yeah, kind of the plan went perfect.
Yeah, and the scenes at the end of the fight, that seemed like a real release.
Was that because of coming off the back of the loss, that just felt like redemption?
A hundred percent, yeah, absolutely. Just like, you know, that fight was only three months ago,
so just to get back in there straight away.
Coming off my first loss as a pro, like, you know, they say you learn the most from the
the losses are right, like really made me get my head down and just like folks and you know
believe in myself and I hope good I am so yeah it's just great to get that win back.
And what were the things after the loss that you were looking to work on that
what did you go back to the drawing board on? Like technically like I said there's only three
months so it didn't add huge to my arsenal just my mentality like some things in that last fight
I could have done different but yeah I'm just making mistakes being a bit more calm in certain
situations you know I think like in our last fight there's probably three kind
of mistakes and things I know I'm better that like giving my back up so easy and
being a bit more calm I didn't get put in them positions tonight and but yeah
just a few things to kind of go back to the draw and board and be like this is
what you need to get better you know yeah and I think you're getting a
reputation for being the man who takes the tough fights in the division what
is that how you want to be known look yeah it's just Indian he's offering his
fights I'm like yeah sure like I got the chance to fight the best guy in the
division last time, then I had Torple, he was another good guy, he pulled out three weeks,
then the trio, this guy was around, he was really experienced, probably even a better
fight than the first one, I'll say.
