Rafael Fiziev spoke about the fact that he was forced to withdraw from the fight against Charles Oliveira.
“I feel horrible. Horrible. I pulled out of the fight. This happened for the second time in my career. I feel very bad because it was the fight of my dreams against a legend, Charles. This is an event for any fighter.
I was supposed to go to his territory, it was motivating, I was supposed to see his people, all against me. It always motivated me. Because I want to smash not just the guy, but everyone around. And if I smash him, everyone will go crazy or become my fans... switch to my side,” Fiziev said.
