Park Si-won appeared on the Punchline, the official road FC interview, ahead of his participation in Goobne ROAD FC 073, which will be held at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on June 28. In his first interview after recovering from his injury, Park officially declared a welterweight (-77kg), a weight class in the lightweight class (-70kg).
Park Si-won is a fighter with excellent skills to the extent that he became the youngest champion in the lightweight division. He is one of the fighters who fans wait for the game the most with his big height and grappling ability.
Park Si-won was scheduled to participate in the Goobne ROAD FC 072 held on March 16, but he was out the day before due to a sudden back injury. It was an out due to a back injury, but fans suspected that Park Si-won failed to lose weight and was out with an injury as an excuse. Park Si-won's medical certificate was released, but many fans did not believe it because it was a two-week injury.
Park Si-won was not able to appear at the tournament due to his injury. I only lay down and devoted myself to recovery for 10 days. As a result, fans pointed out Park Si-won's professional spirit.
Park Si-won said "Originally, my back was in bad shape while preparing for the match. There was a time when my back was twisted and I couldn't move my back, but this time, too. I went to the hospital, got a shot, got treated, and watched, and I contacted him in the evening that I didn't think (the match) would work, and the announcement was made the next day."
The weight was also 77 kg two days before the weight limit. It was in a state of losing 1 to 2kg more than originally. There was no problem with losing weight at all. I've never failed in the balance, but it's unfair to say that it's because I haven't been able to lose weight."
Park Si-won has confirmed his participation in Goobne ROAD FC 073 to be held at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on June 28. Originally, he accepted the lightweight offer, but he declared a welterweight moonrise and will be held at the welterweight level from this game.
Park Si-won "He's better at losing water than others. So I was able to keep losing weight to lightweight, and I never failed, but talking about weight loss made me stressed out. These days, I think players' weight, muscle mass, and body size are also large at the welter level. Even if you look around at the welterweight class, there aren't many people bigger than me. He will play for another 10 years, and from that point of view, he decided that it might be better to adapt to the welterweight class"I can play lightweight, but I don't think I can continue to play." I think I have to do moonrise soon anyway. You can't play much in the lightweight division. So I thought I should run at the welterweight level," he said, explaining the reason for the moonrise.
Declaring the moon as a welterweight, Park Si-won was asked about the opponent he wanted to face. In response, Park Si-won mentioned Kim Dong-hyun, a former teacher who played an active role in the UFC welterweight class.
Currently, Park Si-won's opponent has not been decided, and Road FC will announce the opponent as soon as it is decided.
