Na Siváka čeká nejtěžší soupeř kariéry. Organizátoři zaplatí přes milion korun

61 výher a 21 porážek. Tak zní bilance nadějného thajského bojovníka, který se specializuje na thajský box. Kvůli Sivákovi a turnaji v Česku však udělal výjimku a s domácí kometou se utká pod pravidly K-1. „Ani se neptal, zda jsou možná jiná pravidla,“ vysvětluje Marhanský postoj jednadvacetiletého ranaře, jenž má za sebou i dva úspěšné souboje v elitní asijské organizaci ONE Championship.

Trochu se spekulovalo, zda se bude jednat o titulový zápas, ale nakonec jste přistoupili na superfight. Jaký to má důvod?

Vašek chtěl jít 66, ale thajský soupeř, který má 70 kg, by tuhle váhu nedokázal udělat. I proto jsme se dohodli, že to bude v 68 na pět kol po třech minutách.

Bylo náročné domluvit váhu, s níž by byli oba spokojeni?

Náročné to bylo dost. I kvůli tomu, že jsme hledali opravdu velké jméno. Hercules má ve ONE FC dvě výhry a myslím, že už je jen jeden zápas od toho, aby podepsal velký exkluzivní kontrakt. I pro něj je tento zápas hodně důležitý. Vašek zase říkal, že teď už nechce chodit 70. Chce jít nižší váhu, aby všem ukázal, že ji dokáže udělat.

Thajcovou doménou ale je thajský box, kde má na kontě přes 80 zápasů. Nebyl ve hře souboj právě pod těmito pravidly?

My zápasy thajského boxu nepořádáme, a že bychom teď otvírali nějakou další divizi, to se nám nechtělo. Thajec se dokonce ani neptal, zda by byla možná jiná pravidla. S K-1 byl úplně v pohodě. Nijak dál jsme o tom nediskutovali. Hercules i ve ONE FC bojoval v malých rukavicích a myslím si, že jeho box je na velmi dobré úrovni. Je jasné, že lokty by byly pro něj výhodou, ale zatím jsme se dohodli takto. Do budoucna by mohla být ve hře odveta v malých rukavicích pod našimi real fight pravidly. Uvidíme, jaký to bude zápas.

Hercules byl jediným soupeřem, s nímž jste jednali?

Ve hře bylo více jmen. Řešili jsme i bývalého šampiona Glory (nejlepší postojářská organizace), který je stále ve hře na nějaký další zápas. Máme rozjednaného i jednoho Francouze, který je aktuální dvojka Glory. Ten teď ale bohužel nemohl, protože v Japonsku půjde do pyramidy. Nakonec jsme ukázali právě na Thajce, u nějž hrálo roli i to, že má akorát po zápase a je volný. Organizace ho pustily a bude fajn, že ho uvidíme. Pro Vaška by to mohla být vstupenka do ONE FC. Už ji sice jednou dostal, ale bylo to za nízké peníze. A možná kdyby porazil takto vysoko postaveného soupeře, tak by si dokázal otevřít cestu k lepším kontraktům.

Je to něco, co chcete i vy? Přivážet Sivákovi tak kvalitní soupeře, aby se mohl dostat do ciziny, o níž často mluví?

Určitě. My se samozřejmě budeme snažit Vaška udržet u nás co nejdelší dobu, protože je to tahoun a dělá atraktivní zápasy. Chceme, aby měl u nás co nejlepší podmínky, aby nemusel odcházet. Pokud mu ale přijde nějaký statisícový kontrakt (v eurech) právě z ONE FC, tak mu to rádi dopřejeme. Když to přijde, tak to přijde. (smích)

Na sociálních sítích nejednou zmiňujete, že Hercules bude pro Siváka jeho nejtěžším soupeřem kariéry. Stále si za tím stojíte?

Každopádně. Vašek měl velmi silného soupeře už v Rusku a dokázal ho porazit. Hercules by na tom mohl být podobně. Na takto vysoké úrovni je ale těžké říct, kdo je lepší. Záleží, kdo se jak dokáže připravit.

S tímto výrokem ale nesouhlasil právě Sivák, který možná i trochu v nadsázce říkal, že čeká lehký zápas.

To říká o každém soupeři. Když jsme se například bavili o tom, že bychom mu dovezli Chingize Allazova (jeden z nejlepších světových kickboxerů), tak řekl, že pokud bude trénovat, tak ho porazí. Tvrdí, že jediný jeho soupeř je on sám.

Museli jste si vy jako organizátoři sáhnout hluboko do kapsy?

Herkules je drahý zápasník. Budeme se pohybovat v podobných částkách jako v nedávném souboji Siváka se Záděrou. Celkově nás tento zápas bude určitě stát víc než milion.

Penn State fires James Franklin: Longtime coach out amid unfathomable slide from preseason CFP contender

Penn State has fired coach James Franklin six games into his 12th season with the Nittany Lions, the university announced Sunday amid a disastrous three-game slide. The No. 2 team in the preseason AP Top 25 just two months ago, the Nittany Lions slipped to 0-3 in Big Ten play following a stunning 22-21 home loss to Northwestern in Week 7 -- a game in which they were a three-touchdown favorite. The massive upset was Penn State's second in a row after falling at previously winless UCLA on Oct. 4, making it the first FBS team since 1978 to lose back-to-back games as favorites of at least 20 points. Associate head coach and cornerbacks coach Terry Smith will serve as interim for the remainder of the 2025 season. "Penn State owes an enormous amount of gratitude to Coach Franklin who rebuilt our football […]

The failure to develop QB Drew Allar sealed James Franklin’s fate at Penn State

It ended in a fury of boos, of sadness, in holding back tears while sitting on a cart while being driven to the locker room with less than five minutes left in a lost season at Penn State.Drew Allar arrived at Penn State as the five-star quarterback who held the keys to the Nittany Lions' next national title, and he leaves as the lasting image in coach James Franklin's downfall and, ultimately, his firing.Less than 24 hours after Allar's unfulfilling Penn State career came to an end with a lower leg injury in the closing minutes of a stunning home loss to Northwestern, Franklin's Penn State career did as well with his Sunday firing that will cost Penn State nearly $60 million in buyout money. They will be forever synonymous."Most people had him projected as a first round draft choice last […]

Matthew Stafford jumps Dan Marino in NFL record book for career passing yards, bolstering Hall of Fame case

Matthew Stafford is in elite company when it comes to career passing yards. Stafford, who entered Sunday's Week 6 game against the Ravens with the 10th most passing yards in NFL history, moved past Hall of Famer Dan Marino on the all-time list during the first half. Stafford entered the game with 61,312 career passing yards, the second-most among active quarterbacks. Earlier this season, Stafford became only the 10th quarterback in league history to reach 60,000 career passing yards. Marino, who is considered as arguably the greatest pure passer in NFL history, retired after the 1999 season as the NFL's all-time career passing leader. Marino also held the NFL single season records for passing yards (5,084) and touchdown passes (48) at the time of his retirement.  NFL career passing leaders 1.Tom Brady89,2142.Drew Brees80,3583. Peyton Manning71,9404. Brett Favre71,8385.Ben Roethlisberger 64,0886. Aaron Rodgers63,7387. Philip Rivers63,4408. Matt Ryan 62,7929. Matthew Stafford 61,39210. Dan Marino 61,361Earlier this season, Stafford […]
