��i grab Aoki this morning before his Muay Thai session and we grab 5minutes together.

Reporter: hi Aoki, how's training coming along since you went pro?

Aoki Aoki: Training is going well, the coaches say I'm not the fastest of learners but that doesn't matter as they say I have potential. I'm currently training my Muay Thai. I know how to land a knee bar, get a rear naked and snap on an arm bar but I want to kick people, I want to cut people in the clinch. That's what we are working on now.

�R: Your next fight is against an older fighter, are you worried he may be too much for you this early in your career?

AA: no, I asked for this fight and got it. I want to test myself on the ground against a brown belt!

R: where do you see yourself in 6 months?

AA: black belt, and an accomplished muay thai fighter with olympic pedegree wrestling.

R: I can see your coaches want you to start wrapping up, lll let you get on. good luck in your upcoming fight.
