Evander Holyshit Interview

Fighter profile of Evander Holyshit by Power Shark

Evander Holyshit Inteview (10-26-2014)

This is Storman Norman here again with Evander Holyshit

Norman: Its been a while since we have last spoke to you, Last time you were here you were about to face Kenichi Shirahama for the Gamma Heavyweight Championship. You won that fight in a close split decision, only to lose the rematch a month latter. Your Next opponent was an opponent over 10 younger than you. Tell us about your fight with Fat Gorilla:

Holyshit: I knew this was going to be a tough fight, my opponent was much younger than me, and was hungry to win. But I had experience on my side. I've fought some of the best in the world and I knew that no matter how good Gorilla thought he was he couldn't be that much better than me everywhere. My manager and I studied all of his recent fights and some of his older fights and came to the conclusion that he would be looking to get the fight to the clinch pretty aggressively. We also figured that Gorilla had a bit of a suspect chin. The gameplan was to try and counter those clinch attempts with some hard shots. Everything went according to plan for the most part, He did manage to clinch me twice and was surprised that I did more damage in the clinch than him. Had my manager and I known this we probably would have fought a little more aggressive. Coming into the 3rd round my corner and I knew that the fight was extremely close, my corner told me to swing for the fences about 2 1/2 minutes left in the fight and it damn sure paid off. Gorilla him me with a pretty good shot then I dropped him with a huge punch, to my surprise he wasnt finish yet so when he stood up I hit him with everything I had in me and layed him out cold. I didnt know how close it was to the end of the round until my manager told me.

Norman: It was a hell of a finish thats for sure! Had the fight lasted another 5 seconds, I had you possibly losing a spit decision or maybe even a draw but you took care of that with a bang. With this win you get the chance to take on Kenichi Shirahama in the rubbermatch for the Heavyweight Championship! Hopefully our next interview is with 2-time Gamma Heavyweight Champion Evander Holyshit

Evander: That does have a good ring to it, look forward to our next interview

Norman: Good luck buddy, for those who are interested here is a relay of Holyshit's fight of the night performance against Fat Gorilla
