KING OF KINGS newcomer Go Okami (1-0-0) discussed his upcoming match on June 22nd at KINGS "4th ADVANCE" on radio station FM-Osaka 85.1.Jun 18th radio interview with Go Okami in Osaka, Japan (translated to english);
We are here live with Osaka's own home town MMA fighter Go "Tsunami" Okamiiii... it is good to have you Go.
"Hello. Great day it is today."
Couldn't agree more. After a first round KO victory over Kalevi Perse, you make your KING OF KINGS debut on the 22nd
"Correct."
So how do you feel going into this fight? Do you have any thoughts on your opponent?
"I am training hard at Tokyo Shooto. I hear he has a purple belt in jujitsu so I have been in the gym training with instructor Triangle, doing everything I can to make sure my opponent does not submit me. I feel very confident going into this fight, I did not come to KING OF KINGS to lose."
It's obvious you want to keep this one standing...
"Yes but I will be prepared to fight on the ground. I do not expect him to stay on his feet for long."
Why?
"I respect him as a fighter but he does not want to stand toe to toe with me more than he has to."
Why is that?
"It would benefit him not to."
Ha, you're confident in your boxing. Anything you would like Logan Strauss to know?
"I have been training very hard. I fight to win."
I'm sure he does too, anything else you would like to say?
"Be ready for a fight or you will regret it when you wake up."
Good stuff! It was good having you Go, we wish you the best of luck. People of Osaka, that was your very own Go Okami.. He will be making his KING OF KINGS debut against fighter Logan Strauss at the Underground in Tokyo on 6/22/09. Go there and show your support!
