First of all, wrestling is a getting over difficulties. If you can “gather your will in a fist” and endure a pain – you can count on a fortune’s good graces. -
Last years a youthful fervor and heat can be read on the faces of my rivals. My opponents don’t know fatalism. Because of that each of them want to become an author of a sensation and dreams to win. Some of them even loudly declared the period they need to defeat me. Russians have no such rule to promise before competition. We prefer an action to words, maybe because we don’t spend our forces for long talking and team Russia leads on European and world championships and Olympic Games. It’s not necessary to be afraid of a defeat. It’s necessary to think how to train to evade such trouble. And only ones, who can tear themselves away from a captivity of binding emotions, can become champions.
From another ones a fear can do likeness of waxen dolls. Think over, do I need to be afraid of something if I carried out all trainer’s aims, if I won all my rivals in the test-fights, if there are three holds which I can apply to any rivals? What do I need to do be afraid in this case? Maybe my own shade? A psychological stability is the one of the components of a victory. Self-confidence can be reached by hard work “on a mat” and in the training halls.

Generally, all rivals are not from a hospital bed; all of them are worthy of respect.

I like reading and listening to good music. I prefer an active rest to inactive one. My friends and I play football and wrestling basketball twice a week. I like walking in the pine forest within the city. To tell the truth, my training regime is very hard and I almost have no time free during periods of preparation to responsible competitions. But I don’t complain of my fate.
