“I needed to do more” – Marat Grigorian satisfied to end rivalry with ‘clever’ fighter Sitthichai in dominating fashion
In January, Marat Grigorian of Armenia, who is currently ranked second in the ONE Championship featherweight kickboxing division and was previously a ONE world title challenger, reflected on his impressive knockout win against his long-time Thai opponent Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong in the third round.
At ONE 165: Superlek vs. Takeru in Tokyo, Grigorian displayed a masterful performance, using powerful combinations to defeat his arch nemesis.
Looking back on that fight, Grigorian realizes the key to his success: he amped up his aggression, a crucial factor in securing the victory.
In a recent interview with ONE Championship, Grigorian commented on his recent fight with ‘Killer Kid’.
“When I was fighting against Sitthichai, I always got the feeling that I needed to do more and more and more because he’s a good fighter. He’s a clever fighter. He moves really good and also takes his points good.”
Grigorian was able to secure victory against Sitthichai by making the necessary adjustments. Will he be able to replicate this success against his upcoming opponent?
