Doha, Qatar. Fahad Al Thani continued his unbeaten run as a
professional boxer with another win on Sunday.
He beat Romanian pugilist Adrian
Parlogea in their Super Welterweight bout in Spain.
“This was the third time I fought
this opponent. He had great info on my strengths and on the shots that I would
use in my fight,” Fahad told local newspaper The Peninsula yesterday.
“So I had to adapt quickly in the
first round to keep my control. So I used the jab and changed direction of the
shots that I would throw,” the Qatari added.
“He showed his experience and that
was a great learning curve for me. Bit by bit I started to work him down.
Alhamdollilalh (Thank God) I won in the third round,” said the 31-year old.
Fahad trained in Doha for hid fight
against Parlogea.
“My training camp in Doha was
really tough. My training with Ismael A Salas and with Franck Bohec was good.
He is back with me full-time. We worked a lot on fitness and strength condition
with Frank,” Fahad said.
“We worked on building the balance,
on improving the movement and feeling out the ring,” Fahad added. “It was a
challenge at times and it was messy at times but I managed to win every round.
I kept my composure in the fight.”.
