At the UFC tournament held in Baku, Azerbaijan representative Fərman Həsənov was remembered for his successful performance. Həsənov demonstrated a superior performance against his opponent Erik Nolan and won by unanimous decision of the judges.
Medianews.az reports that after the fight, during the press conference, the athlete answered journalists' questions and stated that the match went as planned.
Həsənov, who did not want to talk about the advice given to him by his coach Ibrahim before the fight, said that it was a matter between teacher and student.
Our representative emphasized that fighting more cautiously was part of the tactical plan: “The opponent was well prepared. We finished all three rounds with a victory, we controlled the fight, and everything went according to plan.”
Fərman Həsənov also revealed that he has a four-fight contract with the UFC. He said that he learned English not after joining the UFC, but earlier, and that over the last three years he regularly visited the USA and took lessons from an American teacher.
Həsənov, who dedicated his victory to his Homeland and the Azerbaijani people, also spoke about another representative participating in the UFC Baku tournament, Tofiq Musayev. He expressed his belief that his fellow citizen will succeed, emphasizing, “Victory suits us.”
