Tatsuya Kawajiri

ENTRENAMIENTO: Lunes, miércoles y viernes, boxeo.
Martes y jueves, entrenamiento No Gi.
Sábados, entrenamiento de MMA. También levanto pesas y enseño clases.

¿Cuándo y por qué comenzaste a entrenar para pelear?
En 1997, fui a ver el K-1 GP en el Tokyo Dome. Compré la entrada más barata, muy atrás de todo, en el área más alejada del ring. Desde ahí, miré el combate de Ernest Hoost contra Francisco Filho e incluso desde ahí, pude sentir la tensión tremenda. Pensé: “Kakutougi (deportes de combate) es impresionante”. Entonces quise hacerlo también.

¿Qué títulos has obtenido?
Campeón de Shooto de las 155 libras.

¿Tienes algún ídolo?
Hayato “Mach” Sakurai y Kazushi Sakuraba. Ambos son mis ídolos desde hace tiempo.

¿Qué significa para ti pelear en el UFC?
Cuando firmé ese contrato con el UFC estaba tan excitado que no pude dormir bien esa noche.

¿Fuiste a la universidad? Si es así, ¿qué título obtuviste?
Me gradué de la universidad Chuo Gakuin.

¿De qué trabajabas antes de comenzar a pelear?
Empecé MMA cuando terminé la escuela secundaria, así que realmente nunca tuve un trabajo a tiempo completo. Bueno, voy a corregir eso. Siempre he sido un peleador de MMA a tiempo completo. ¿Suena bien? (Risas)

¿Qué logros específicos tienes en la competencia amateur?
Jugué béisbol en la escuela primaria y en la escuela media. En la escuela secundaria, practiqué atletismo (carreras de 800 metros). No tenía experiencia en kakutougi. Pero en Shooto amateur gané el torneo abierto del Este de Japón de Shooto de las 155 libras (1999).

¿Qué logros específicos tienes en la competencia profesional?
Gané el premio a Rookie of the Year (Novato del Año) en Shooto 2002, y gané el título mundial de Shooto de las 155 libras en el año 2004.

Técnica favorita de agarre:
Golpeo a ras de lona.

Técnica favorita de golpeo:
Golpeo a ras de lona.
