MMA: DEEP Full Results, Obiya Says He'll Fight Fedor if Fans Want

DEEP Cage Impact 2009 was held on Dec 19 at Differ Ariake in Tokyo. In his post-fight interview, winner of the main event of the tournament's second section, Nobuhiro Obiya, said he would fight Fedor if the fans wanted. Below are translations of some of his comments in the interview.

"If the fans want, I'll go beat up Fedor"
"Of course you have to have skills, but my policy is that it's not like golf where you can play in the Master's in your 50s and 60s -- you have to go after it when you're young and strong. And if you're going to do that, you have to take every fight seriously, and if a guy wants to stand up and bang with me, I'll bang, because I'm an MMA fighter, and the ISE fighters are MMA fighters, and we can do everything. If the fans want it, I'll even go after Fedor -- that's the attitude I have."
