Bhullar scooping with Star Sports, ONE Heavyweight World Champion Arjan Singh Bhullar spoke on his mindset and process which he follows before fights such as this, he said “For every day I have a routine where I visualize what it is I’m doing, I’m doing it fully, in an arena full of people, or a gym, perfect techniques, and the breath work I do.
So a lot of this process, allows me to do it with the most pressure, when all the lights are on and the arena is packed and everyone is yelling and screaming, you have to be calm. Anything can happen around you, inside, only you control that and turn around your face in the way you want to. And that’s the emotions, the breath, that’s the mind. And primarily, it’s necessary to have the techniques to do that as well. For me, it was like, ok, if it’s possible, all you need is hope sometimes, ‘Hey, it’s doable, it’s possible.’ If they can do it, I can do it, and now I have to figure out how to do it.”
On being asked about Bhullar’s reign as ONE Heavyweight World Champion, Bhullar said “There’s one champion, there’s one title, across all divisions, across all sports there’s not two. So, I am that, and I am the champion. In my time away, they introduced this fake thing, I can give you this object and tell you, you’re the champion too.
But for some reason he’s been brought into it too (Malykhin), which is, you know, that’s up to him. But come June 23rd, that is it. I am a champion, but every time you go back out there, you have to prove it, and I will prove it again, on June 23rd.”
Bhullar also said “You know your confidence goes to the next level. I am the man, everything I thought I was, I am. So it’s a different feeling when you have a belt. So you become 10% better they say when you become a champion. Because your mind combines with your physical. What you thought you were, sitting there meditating and visualizing all of this, it actually happens. So that affirms everything. So the next person that comes now is in big trouble.”
