Adrian Bartosinski reveals concrete plan for transition from KSW to UFC

Adrian Bartosinski confirmed that in the future he would like to try his hand in the UFC organization. The KSW champion has a specific plan that he intends to stick to.

Adrian Bartosinski already has his next defense of the KSW welterweight championship belt set. The popular Bartosinski will return to the round cage on December 20 and face Muslim Tulshaev at KSW 113 in Lodz, Poland.

Bartosinski recently gave an extensive interview to Patryk Prokulski of the TVP Sport station. During the long conversation, of course, could not miss the topic of the fighter’s possible move to the UFC organization.

Adrian Bartosinski reveals plan to move from KSW to UFC

Adrian Bartosinski confirmed that he would rather pursue this in the future. However, he stressed that he is not interested in fighting in the Contender Series program.

– Rather, this is the direction I will go, and it may be that I will wait a year or two and nothing, or maybe I will continue to fight in KSW. It’s better to go there already (to the UFC) to fulfill a dream secured, than to go through Contender, fighting here at some other galas for five plus two, eight plus two, no money. That is to say, you go there fighting for a dream and for something to live on. Double the pressure. And how I go there with the knowledge that here I’ve already earned something, so I can go for less money, and if it doesn’t work out, I’ve already earned something here anyway. It’s different to go with the pressure of fighting for life, and different to go with the pressure of fulfilling a dream. This is easier.

Adrian wants to come to the UFC organization as a man who has set aside a considerable sum of money in his bank account so that he can fully focus on pursuing his sports dreams and challenges, rather than thinking that he needs to earn a living.

– It’s nice to have then to go to the States, and with a paycheck of ten plus two to the States you won’t go before your UFC debut. Looking at the development, you can definitely afford more, and I know what kind of preparation I’m able to do when I have a paycheck in KSW like I do now, and what the quality is, and how much I can afford, how much I can spend on preparation.

Of course, at this point there is nothing to talk about the implementation of the plan, because Bartosinski must first fulfill his contract with the KSW federation, that is, fight all the fights he has in his current contract. Only later as a so-called “free fighter” will he be able to aspire for direct entry into the UFC.
