"Everyone in Brazil loves Charles and they will shout at me: "Uh, you're going to die" (laughs)".
Idman.biz reports that Azerbaijani UFC fighter Rafael Fiziev said this in an interview with AgFight about the fight with Charles Oliveira.
The famous athlete commented on the fight being held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: "I am 100% ready for the fight and I was born for this. It motivates me. I like it even more when the public doesn't like me. In such moments, I think: "Oh, really? Now I have a great chance to defeat your athlete. After that, everyone will start to love me. Maybe not everyone, but probably 70 percent of the fans will start to respect me. This atmosphere of hostility motivates me even more, so I like being the bad guy because it can sometimes make you very comfortable."
It should be noted that the fight between Fiziev and Oliveira will take place on October 11 at the UFC tournament in Rio.
