Fighter profile of Thoth Chontamenti by

 Matt Lawrence: Heeeeeellooooo everybody! This is Matt Lawrence bringing to you another episode of The Lawrence Minute, a show created to all of you MMA freaks around the world! As usual, let's get down to business! Tonight we are here at the Park Plaza Hotel, in London, waiting for he Sucker Punch Pro Series 168 that will happen tomorrow at the Wombley Arena! With us tonight, we have Thoth Chontamenti, who’s going to face Thiago Araujo on tomorrow's card.

Matt Lawrence: Thoth, welcome and thank you very much for being here with us tonight. First of all I would like to know a bit more about your recent management change. This will be your first fight under Dries Flucht, the fourth manager of your career. How has it been, working with Dries and his team, and what can we expect in this new phase of your career?

Thoth Chontamenti: I'm very excited to be under Dries, a fairly new manager in the game. He has been remarkable in his short time in the industry so I can confidently say that he'll have me fighting for the title once again soon.

Matt Lawrence: Oh yes, sir, you are a former SP Heavyweight Champion with a considerable number of defenses, enough defenses for some to say you had a dominant run at it. How do you see the Heavyweight division today? How far do you think a win tomorrow is going to put you, regarding a new shot at the title?

Thoth Chontamenti: Today's heavyweight division is, in my opinion, the most competitive in Sucker Punch history so now it'll be harder than ever to climb up the rankings, but I believe I can do it. A win tomorrow will boost my confidence a lot to be honest. I've been down lately, mostly due to my bad run under previous managers.

Matt Lawrence: Tomorrow, you’ll be fighting Thiago Araujo, a MMA veteran making his debut at SPPS. What can we expect from this fight? Does his ground game worry you? Do you want to send a message to him? I’m pretty sure he’s gonna be watching us!

Thoth Chontamenti: There are definitely some aspects in his game that worry me. His 23 submission victories are a problem for me, that's why I'll be aiming to knock him out when we step inside that cage!

Matt Lawrence: There you have it, ladies and gentlemen! Thoth Chontamenti! Thoth, once again, thank you very much for meeting us in such short notice. Next time, hopefully we'll have more time to talk about your musical tastes, and maybe get some hairstyling tips from you. Good luck in your fight tomorrow! Bye- bye everyone and I’ll see you soon!
