Sadulaev : Baytsayev should have been better at home, but Snyder beat him. Perhaps Vlad had some plans, but Snyder simply did not let him realize them with his constant attacks. Snyder was very comfortable with the conditions here in Russia or anywhere in the world. He is very fit and does not get tired and rushes like a tank anywhere in the world.Correspondent : Like a tank ?!
Sadulaev : Well, let it be a bulldozer (laughs).Correspondent : You met Snyder. What were you guys talking about?
Sadulaev : I invited him to Dagestan, but he had an early fight because of the early departure of the American team. Also the competition program was changed. I and Khadzhimurat Gatsalov invited him to dinner, but he refused because of the early departure. Kyle promised after the Olympics, he will come to Dagestan with his family. We will look forward to it.Also Read: UWW bans world’s top wrestler Abdulrashid Sadulaev for four months
Correspondent : Do you quite often communicate?
Sadulaev : Sometimes we write to each other on Instagram. I don’t know English, he does not know Russian – but through the translator we communicate, we keep in touch.
Correspondent : What you have to say about the Alans-2019 tournament?
Sadulaev : In Ossetia, I feel at home. I really like how they fight here. The tournament is held at the highest level, best wrestlers, interesting fights.
Correspondent : When will you be back on the matt?
Sadulaev : As you probably know, I was disqualified by the United World of Wrestling for violation on the podium at the World Cup, therefore, not earlier than January 21. Either at Ivan Yarygin Grand Prix or the European Championship can be the starting point – I don’t know while we are preparing – and there we will decide with the coaches at the training camp the exact competition we will choose.
