World renowned Muay Thai fighter Cosmo Alexandre took the time to answer a few questions for Muay Thai Authority about his upcoming fight. Cosmo will be fighting Cyrus Washington at Lion Fight Promotions "Battle in the Desert 2" on May 14th.
MTA: You have an upcoming bout on May 14th for Lion Fight Promotions where you will be making your American debut. What type of impression do you plan on making the American fans?
Cosmo: I want to do my best as ever, I am training really hard to give you a good show.
MTA: Your opponent will be Cyrus Washington, how much do you know about him and is there anything you feel he brings to the fight that could give you any trouble?
Cosmo: All I know about him is that he also lived in Thailand, and he is a great fighter.
MTA: You have been in the ring with the best fighters in the world, Cyrus has not faced an opponent of your caliber before. Does knowing this make it any easier when preparing for the fight?
Cosmo: No, I always train hard, it doesn't matter who I will fight with. And the fact he didn't face big names doesn't mean he is not a dangerous fighter.
MTA: Where are you currently training for this fight and with who?
Cosmo: I am training at the Imperial Athletic, in Florida , my Thai coach is Tcha, I know him a long time, since I was living in Thailand. It is a great place to train, the weather is also very close to Thailand's weather.
MTA: You have been on the wrong end of decisions your last two fights. How important is it for you to not lose three fights in a row?
Cosmo: I don't think about these fights as loses... Against Yodsaenklai I think I won, and against Petrosyan, I fought on his rules, so I don't think it was bad.
MTA: Can you give us a prediction for the fight?
Cosmo: It is always hard to know what is going to happen, but I am training to make a good fight, and of course win.
MTA: Rumors circulating are that you plan on focusing more on MMA, is that true?
Cosmo: Yes, that is true. Now I am in a great team, and I want to debut as soon as possible.
MTA: After this fight if you could face any fighter of your liking who would it be?
Cosmo: I want to fight against Buakaw.
MTA: Any words your have for your fans, other fighters or anyone in general?
Cosmo: I want to thank you for your support, and you can be sure I will make my best on this fight. I want to show the American fans that Muay Thai can be as exciting as MMA.
MTA: Thanks for your time Cosmo, and best of luck on the fight against Cyrus.
