“I will definitely prepare better than for today’s match, I had some health problems, it will be even better Kozma than today. I won, but I was not satisfied with my performance. Fortunately, it worked out,” said Kozma after the match, who almost did not enter the pyramid .

“I thought that I would withdraw from the tournament due to an injury, I missed some things, I didn’t match, but I don’t want to make it concrete so that the opponent doesn’t take advantage of it. It didn’t hurt in the match, it was fine. I believe that the next preparation will be fine,” he said also Kozma on Sunday after midnight.

On Saturday, he was close to elimination, but he managed the crisis situation. You can see the key moment in the video above. “I made a mistake, the choke was on well, but I got out of it, that was probably the only mistake where I felt in danger.
