Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Grigorian expressed his sentiments on the upcoming world title showdown with Allazov.
The 32-year-old Armenian superstar said:
“This means everything for me [the one featherweight kickboxing world title]. I'm trying to make my dream come true.”
Of course, the task is much easier said than done. Allazov is one of the most skilled fighters in all of ONE Championship and is on an incredible four-fight winning streak, which includes three knockouts.
Meanwhile, Grigorian is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Tayfun Ozcan in October of 2022.
