K-1 veteran kickboxer, Sergei Kharitonov is looking for another two or three fights between now and the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix semi-finals, explaining he wants to keep himself busy to stay competitive.
Kharitonov, speaking to ValeTudo.ru, said:
“Until the grand prix semi-finals I’ll definitely have 2-3 fights. I want to keep myself in a good shape. You can always train hard, but without competing it will only have a negative effect during the fight. I had four fights during the recent months. I’m always in shape, and always ready to fight, both physically and mentally. So I think in this case more is better. And I would advise the same thing to Fedor Emelianenko. He needs more fights to get back on top.”
