Seasn Soffman Interview (KOTB)

Fighter profile of Sean The Strangler by

Hey Sean, thanks for joining us.

Thanks for having me!

You’re 3-0 in your career and here at KOTB, do you see this fight going any differently?

Wright is by far my toughest opponent to date. He is strong at standup and is no slouch on the ground either. Me and my coaches are working on some things and I'm hoping to bring a quick submission.

You were known as one of the most dangerous blue belts in the world, how does it feel to finally get your purple belt?

My trainer had wanted to promote me for awhile, but I felt I wasn't ready, I felt that I needed to prove myself on the mat. Once I won the KOTB belt it was finally time to get the purple, and now I'm working hard on my brown!

What are your thoughts on your upcoming title fight?

If I said I wasn't nervous I’d be telling a lie. It's been my dream to become champion, but now I have a new dream and that’s to stay a champion!

This lightweight division is wide open right now; do you have any thoughts on how the division will shape up over the next few months?

That’s really hard to say, KOTB has brought so many top prospects in for the LW that I don't think I will ever feel safe as long as I'm champion.

What’s you best asset in the cage?

I think my best asset is outside of the cage. Every day I try to work harder than anyone else. I never want to feel tired in a match, I know how much I hate feeling that way at the end of a sparring session, so that makes me train harder so it never happens inside the ring.

Thanks, Sean.

Thanks for having me!
