Quick read
Rafael Fiziev has distanced himself from the Kyrgyz martial arts school, saying he considers himself self-made rather than a product of any national system. He also argued that Valentina Shevchenko, who trained in Kyrgyzstan for only five or six years before moving on, should not be labeled a product of the country's MMA scene either. Fiziev praised fellow fighters Razhababli and Orolbai as genuine phenoms, comparing their natural gifts to those of Islam Makhachev, Khabib, and Justin Gaethje.
