it is distinguished not only by a high sports level. The KSW champion has never been afraid to speak out loud about what he is thinking. A few years ago, as one of the few, and now it got Roberto Soldici.
During the KSW 65 gala, the Croatian brutally knocked out Mamed Khalidov with his left flail on the jaw. And although the Chechen fell to the ground, Soldić managed to finish off his rival twice. First with an unclean blow to the jaw, and then it hit him in the vicinity of the neck. And although some fans justified these hits with the fervor of the fight, Ziółkowski has a different view of this situation.
– I have to say this because I noticed that nobody is talking about it. I didn’t like that Soldić was killing him like that. Soldić is not a player who has the third or tenth fight in his career, but he has already gained some of these fights. It is also not a competitor who knocked someone out for the first time and he does not know how the knocked out guest behaves – said Ziółkowski in an interview with the portal “.
– Soldić is a fighter who knocks out often, who is used to being knocked down. And it feels like it. I am not a player who has been knocked out many times, but after a few knockouts you can more or less see how the other is getting along. You can more or less feel if the other fighter is in a fight. Of course, you cannot risk and sometimes you can sleep through this moment, which I am aware of, but some things can be noticed. On TV I saw that it was like this: Soldić hit him with the left and after that the left Mamed was practically turned off. And then the hammer went. And I think that Soldicia cannot be blamed for this hammer, because you know the first thought: finish it. The hammer showed that Mamed was gone. I saw it on TV, so Soldić saw it too, standing over Mamed. Then he went with the other hammer, and then the judge came in … Clearly, the judge came in, and he was still looking to hit him there. I didn’t like it. But otherwise, Soldić is strong. As I said, I do not know if anyone in Poland can beat him – summed up.
Soldic’s blow with the strength of a horse
– The power of Roberto Soldicia’s blow was monstrous. It was literally as powerful as if Mameda had been kicked up close by a horse – explains Dr. Marek Rybicki from the MML clinic. – Will Mamed continue his career? The decision is up to him, but fortunately he also has another passion, which is fishing – adds Dr. Michał Michalik.
What about Ziółkowski?
In January, during the KSW 66 gala, Marian Ziółkowski will defend his lightweight belt. His opponent will be Borys Mańkowski, who last fought for the FAME MMA federation when he defeated Norman Parke on boxing rules (but in small gloves). At the Szczecin gala we will also see Michał Materla and Tomasz Narkun.
