‘The Butcher’ comes in with a kickboxing record of 18-1, which pales in comparison to the experience of the world champion’s 45-7 record. In a recent interview, Aygun shared that he understands the challenge he is up against. During an interview with ONE Championship, he said:
Kryklia has not lost since 2015 and earned his world title through a couple of dominant performances in the Circle. Physically, he stands seven centimeters taller than Aygun, which could be a huge advantage in a kickboxing match.
However, Aygun says that he doesn’t concern himself with the achievements or physical advantages that his opponent may have. He added:
Winning is something that Aygun has a lot of experience with. His only loss came because of a doctor’s stoppage for a cut in a fight that he was controlling for the most part. Heading into his bout with Kryklia, the 33-year-old seems confident that he will continue winning.
Murat Aygun focused on doing his usual thing
Some fighters tend to visualize how to finish a fight, but Murat Aygun is not concerned with how it will end with Roman Kryklia. The Dutch-Turkish fighter is always focused on winning the match and says he will take it no matter how it comes.
He said:
Murat Aygun has six knockouts to his name, which proves that he’s a fighter who goes for the finish if available. Throughout his seven-year career, the SB Gym product has won multiple world titles in various organizations. Adding the ONE light heavyweight kickboxing world title to his collection will be his most prestigious prize yet. He added:
