Rozenstruik spoke to media members after his victory over Shamil Gaziev and he said everything went according to plan with the exception of how long the fight ended up going (via MMAJunkie).
“The fight expected it the way I expected it to go, except I didn’t think it would take that long,” Rozenstruik said. “But he had a big, strong head. Eventually, we still got the job done. But it took longer than we thought (it would). … I noticed that in the third round I already kind of broke him. He was kind of giving up. He was late reacting to the jab. I was in there, sticking to the game plan. I was setting traps. He didn’t really go for it. I noticed that.”
