The MMA fighter defeated Kaloyan Kalev in a historic fight
In five rounds of MMA fighters Tony Markulev and Kaloyan Kolev created a historic fight. In the bloody fight, which took place on March 22 in the “Arena Armeets” Hall, Tony Markulev decisively prevailed. He participated in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship with the official partnership of inbet. This turned out to be the last match in the athlete’s professional career. In front of the inbet team, he shared how he managed to win, how he feels after the triumph and what goes through the head of an uncompromising fighter like him.
– Tony, congratulations on the win. It was truly a gladiator fight. How and with what did you win?
– Hello and thank you! With tireless will, heart and a great team that I have behind me.
– Was there a moment when you doubted that you would be able to win this match?
– No. Doubt is one of the qualities that a warrior has no right to and cannot possess. If you doubt yourself, you’ve already lost and you’ll never be able to achieve your goals.
– A few days later, but how is the head and how are you in general after this serious clash, because you both exchanged some pretty serious blows?
– I’m fine, thank God! I hope Kaloyan recovers as quickly as possible! My head is as healthy as a bull’s, according to the doctors after the examinations, and that’s how I feel. I have a few cosmetic marks that will remain in the future on the arcades I received, but they will only make me even more beautiful. I’m joking of course, but I’m really proud of them, they always remind me of the road I’ve been on and what I stand for. I came into the fight with a slight tear in my right bicep, and unfortunately, my bicep in those hard exchanges suffered even more. Yes, the fight was really manly and brutal, it is no coincidence that it goes into the history of the top 5 bare-handed fights of the BKFC organization! I hope we will be generously rewarded for that!
– Walk me through the things that happen in the ring. When you are there, absorbed in the opponent, in the match, you hear, to say, the guidance of the people around you? Generally, what goes through the head of an implacable fighter in these moments?
– The feeling is unique, immeasurable and incomparable to anything else. You go into battle without an ounce of hesitation, with determination and the clear awareness that you will not give in to anything. Unless you’re stopped by the opponent you’re facing, but willing to fight to the last breath and the last drop of blood with an unbreakable will, that’s how I feel. The instructions from your team are extremely important to hear, because they help to make the right decisions that you are about to make despite the speed dynamics. To never give up, that is etched in my mind.
– When can we expect you again in the ring or in the octagon?
– I’m done… This was the last fight in my fighting history…
– Why did you decide that now is the time to say “End”?
– Because the achievements and goals that I will set for myself will no longer border on common sense or reason at all!
