Quick read

Rafael Fiziev has distanced himself from being identified as a product of Kyrgyzstan's combat sports system, saying he considers himself self-made. He also praised standout Kyrgyz fighters such as Razhababli and Orolbai, calling Razhababli a phenomenon with no comparable fighter in the world, while drawing parallels to elite athletes like Islam Makhachev, Khabib, and Jon Jones as fighters gifted with something exceptional from a young age.
