SFUK Holland
: How was the match going Martijn?
Martijn
de Jong : I was a tough bout. I
have had some hard punches, which wasn’t
exactly what I wanted. But I won so I am happy
after all.
SFUK Holland
: Dalglies is a striker from origin, how was
he on the ground?
Martijn
de Jong : He was a strong fighter,
not that technical but real strong. He didn’t
put me in danger on the ground, only with
a couple of good punches, but I as I said
he is physical real strong.
SFUK Holland
: Any injuries from the strikes?
Martijn
de Jong : I think I have a light
concussion.
SFUK Holland
: Are you going to the hospital in a moment?
Martijn
de Jong : Maybe, I think so and
otherwise tomorrow.
SFUK Holland
: What do you think of the show?
Martijn
de Jong : To be honest I haven’t
seen that much of it. But it is always well
organised and I heard there were some good
matches.
SFUK Holland
: Any matches you have in the next few months?
Martijn
de Jong : 14 of April I have a
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu match in Japan. On a Shooto
show. Against the teacher of Rumina Sato!
It should be a good show! It is his goodbye
over there. He doesn’t know it himself,
but the show is to honour him.
