Fedor’s recommendation of a secret weapon. An interview with Anatoly Tokov.
—How is your mental state going into the fight?
As per normal, but I still have 2kg’s to lose so I am still worried about that! I feel good, but I feel I have a big responsibility here in Japan and I know I absolutely must win my fight.

—Has Fedor had any advice for you?
I am so thankful that I had the chance to be in training camp with him so many times. He taught me a lot and gave me a lot of advice.

—Please tell us your thoughts on your opponent, AJ Matthews?
I watched two of his fights together with my trainer Fedor. After watching, there were things I learnt from the fights that will help me with this fight. He is a fighter who always likes to come forward, rarely do you seen him take a back step.

—What kind of fight do you want to give not only to the Japanese fans, but to fans around the world?
I want to win beautifully (LOL)!

—Would you like to fight in Japan again?
I want to put on a great performance this time and get rewarded with a new contract. I’d love to fight in Japan more.
