Ruslan Taghiyev: "I won because I wanted to raise our flag in the international arena"

I am proud that I raised our country's flag in the international arena.

Idman.biz reports that these words were said by Azerbaijani athlete Ruslan Taghiyev, who won the "Alash Pride FC 111" MMA tournament held in Shymkent, Kazakhstan, in his statement to AZERTAC.

The fighter, who competes in the 77 kg weight category, stated that he faced a strong opponent: "My Tajik opponent, Nurex Rakhmonov, had no defeats in his career like me. That's why it was very difficult for me. I wasn't sure I would win. There was also some excitement. Thank God, I won."

The representative of the "Neftchi" club also spoke about his upcoming goals: "My next fight will be in Europe in November. It is difficult to say now what the result will be. I hope that I will return home from there with a victory."
