Andrey Pulyaev exclusively for Telecom Asia Sport
I immediately agreed to the fight against Gautier. In the UFC, you don't get to choose your opponents. At least not at my level. I’m worried about the fight, but it’s always like this, with any opponent. But I can and I must beat Gauthier. I wouldn't call him a pure knockout artist. He rarely achieves a clean knockout. Gauthier's opponents simply didn't want to continue the fight, and he finished them. I am in full training mode under the guidance of Alexander Shlemenko and Andrey Koreshkov, and that's already 90% of the win.
On the night of January 25th, Andrey Pulyaev will fight Cameroonian Ateba Gautier at UFC 324. The Russian's record is 10 wins and three losses. Gauthier has won nine out of ten professional MMA fights.
