Riccardo wins the prestige fight in Glory World Series

Great victory  by knockout in the first round for Riccardo in a location that could not be more exciting: the prestige fight that preceded Glory World Series Final 8 (Palalottomatica, Rome).

Some considerations from Riccardo the day after the match:

<< I’m really happy about the match, I knew that my boxing skills and my power punches were  stronger compared to my opponent so I immediately started hitting hard and move around, trying to stay out from my opponent’s middle kicks.

In the past week I actually had a knee injury, and until a few days before the match I still was not sure I could fight…I went forward with the right determination and decided to close the match as soon as possible in the first round, and I did it!

My strong point is boxing, but it was a kickboxing match so I paid attention to both of his knees and that kicks. D’Amuri was an uncomfortable fighter because his long arms and legs… so I could not be static. I am very happy because I finished this match flawless and without injuries…and the just started season is so full of important events!

Next meeting in K1 style will be the INVICTUS KICKBOXING ARENA (http://www.invictusarena.com/) on February 9 in Rome, I will fight for the intercontinental WAKO PRO title belt against Mustapha Haida. A special thanks goes to my staff up Farina Khalid Mazhoum, Federico Catizone (Cutman) and Gabriele Giacomino (physiotherapist-physical therapy), big thanks to them all! >>
